I've just started learning Rust, so I've been working through The Book and Rust by Example to get familiarity with the language before diving into any projects. Coming from a C++ background, I've been surprised at how similar and simultaneously completely different Rust is from C++, and I've run into a lot of things that seemed completely bizzare to me (like the whole immutable variable default and shadowing) that I initially disliked until I looked into the reasoning and became wholly on board with the systems.

I'm planning on developing a cute little pet project for a relativistic/geometric time system, where the current time is determined not by arbitrary time zones but coordinates on the earth. I'll probably post some updates once I start working on it ^͜^

This is such a huge problem in atheism communities, which is why I don't spend any time in them despite being secular and non religious myself (yeah, I honestly don't even like using the term "atheist" anymore). Religious or not, you shouldn't be telling people what to believe or how to believe. That goes for hardline Christian nationalists just as much as it goes for hardline Atheists attacking anyone of faith. If it's not hurting anyone, let people believe what they believe.

I think they researched this and found that literally no creature completely rely on mosquitos, and that if they were wiped out the power vaccum would be replaced by other small flying insects that are within the diets of the creatures that would otherwise eat mosquitoes. So yeah, there really isn't anything stopping us from wiping them out. I say do it, and just keep some in a lab just in case if fucks stuff up. Or maybe more reasonably just modify them so they can't suck human blood or pierce human skin, which I'm pretty sure we're also already capable of.

As a trans girl in Texas I'm really hoping we can finally get Cruz the hell out of here. He has done nothing for us and everything for himself.

*safely obtain them. I don't know how to tell apart legit sites and honeypots, and as a trans girl in Texas I am really really really worried about potentially being arrested. So I don't risk it, and I probably won't until I meet someone I can trust irl who can help me get access tbh.
