@albnelson Hopefully not in Memphis...

@FourOh-LLC it would be interesting if he could make the resistor layer with little short circuits that get in circuit only at a slightly higher temperature than the solder on top melts. Then, you could use the layer to melt the solder, after that kick it a little higher voltage to melt the parts and short the resistor, use current limiting to protect everything when the short kicks in, then turn it off. The resistor layer could become your ground plane, so you don't need another.

I think the resistor layer might interact poorly with some RF, but there's probably some way to write software that automatically avoids that issue.

The #YouTube interface is particularly bad. It's optimized to keep me watching ads - which, fine. Whatever. But there's not a good tagging system, no way to share things within the platform with friends. No way to see what my friends might have liked. No integration with a social network period.

There is so much good interesting nerdy content in there, and that makes it the only good video platform I know of, but it's so bad at connecting me with it.

So much interesting stuff on https://lobster.rs this morning.

Let the smoke out of two tiny LEDs this afternoon... Fortunately neither were important. I learned the small ones are very sensitive.

@brk Wild Gift... Hadn't heard of them! They look cool. It's great how many roasters and breweries etc. have popped up in the last several years.

Disappointed at Redd1t for the mods killing my post there...

I brewed up some of this in the Aeropress this morning, and was enjoying it so much I wanted to share. Chapolera is a small roaster and coffee shop in Idaho Falls, ID, that just makes fantastic coffee. The owner is this cool Columbian woman who has fantastic consistent taste in coffee.

Now we live in Texas but every now and then I remember to order some beans online - recently I needed some more Aeropress filters (first time needing more in like 10 yrs) and thought, "I wonder if any little roasters I like would ship me some." Chapolera.

I don't really have a palate that can tell you what this tastes like - but it's way up there with my favorite light roasts from Merit, or Brown (San Antonio roasters). These are similar to Counter Culture's Hologram if you've had that, especially the El Pilar.

Fantastic little #coffee roaster:

@brk awesome! I've seen from_fn used before, but haven't tried it. I was wondering if something like generators were in the language - that's great that they're coming. I love them in Python for a bunch of tasks.

I had been wondering - "if I create my own iterator structure, how do I implement map and all the rest on it?" During this talk it clicked for me why I don't have to.

Also loved the bit at the end between bound and unbound.

A waltz through iterators in #Rust, while discussing how type-driven API designs can help.

@esther this article helped me with my #Rust error handling... I regularly find myself checking back in on it, actually.

https://nick.groenen.me/posts/rust-error-handling/#application-errors

That's the Application section, which is most of what you're talking about in your post. But I find myself the API section more, then only needing some of the application patterns and not actually using the anyhow crate.

A great walkthrough of finding bugs and putting them together to get execution on an embedded device. I especially appreciate this because I have a couple old #Roku at home and now I can consider using them as general purpose Linux boxes.
