@musicmatze and I didn't quite use all the recommendations in that post actually... In the portions of my application that were very much like a library I used thiserror (which is so cool). Then in the portions that were primarily error consumers I just handled then myself. #rust
@musicmatze that's annoying. Perhaps they don't understand the tradeoffs. I was lucky to find this post a little while ago when I was trying to understand the right way to do errors.

US Politics
I just voted! I was able to take a nice long walk in the gray weather, stroll to a local spot to buy some cookies, and trundled home.
But so many people don't have that choice (which I only have because I'm currently unemployed).
A day of voting should be a national holiday at the very least - a fully paid holiday to be even more effective. #politics #voting

I’m seeing long-time Mastodon folks asking people to please PLEASE use CW on posts about political topics and then I’m seeing almost no one actually do that. It’s so important to keep up with the culture of this space that was established long before many of us got here. Just use the CW!!

Hello/Hola, I'm a historian of technology in the MIT Program for Science, Technology, and Society. I am interested in the relationship of science, technology, and design to processes of political change, especially in Chilean history. I teach classes in areas such as data and society, the history and social studies of computing, and science, technology, and human rights. #histodons #sts #histsci #histtech #histSTM #LatinAmerica #humanrights #data
@greg Wow! Didn't realize you were here. Cool domain name. (Karl)
@vadian ah, I saw that photo. The "sensors while you're away" problem reminds me of this cool tool:
About $100 and it can send telemetry to the cloud via cell network with no monthly fee. Dev kit comes with battery backup and temperature/humidity sensor. I needed to integrate it with a current sensor and it was awesomely simple. https://blog.notmet.net/2022/02/power-sensor/

Gotta keep those tires on the ground!
@vadian lol, it sounds really cool to have boat stuff to work on. The whole AIS thing is interesting to me, but not something I get to mess with regularly.
@snickerbockers @DMEdwards I think @keyoxide meets some of these needs now, verifying that profiles across different sites represent the same entity, but doesn't attempt to provide messaging or other features

Introduction round two in an attempt to ID if its a specific hashtag or my presence on the platform I won't name that triggered the deluge of abuse.

@pkrugman welcome man. Sorry it seems flaky on your instance.
@trinsec @cstanhope thank you! And to recap the convo on matrix - I had to look under the hamburger menu on settings - preferences, then found exactly that.
