I believe there's a chance we might unknowingly be in an interstellar war in which the first consciousness to spread itself throughout the universe will dictate how consciousness is experienced until the heat death of the universe. Thus, it's my duty as a human-derived consciousness to ensure that whatever survives this war is a consciousness compatible with our notions of justice so that future conscious descendants of our species may enjoy the same benefits (or more) than we currently have. This belief has several practical implications day-to-day for me; my utility function is to maximize the chance that human-derived consciousness survives long enough into the future (until the universe allows so).

@be @deavmi Not if you're using pancurses, unfortunately. There are plenty of other examples to show rust isn't immune. It's not that rust is bad, but if you think your code is inherently secure and safe from crashes because it's "memory safe" or "statically typed", then you're gonna learn some hard and painful lessons.

What that hell is wrong with me I'm so fucking tired for the past 3-5 weeks. I can't fucking do anything. Even vrowsing shit online isntiring af. Anybody here suggests something? Blood work? Sleep study? Amphetamines??? Any chance I can do these without leaving my bed?
Mild improvements today
spent ~6hrs troubleshooting a problem with my Ubuntu upgrade with a looming deadline. Had to jump many abstraction levels to fix this. Feel like I've just completed a major quest on a videogame. Or the computer geek's equivalent of having gone on an adventure to defeat a dragon.

Hello! I am mirabellensaft. I am a non-binary polyamorous embedded #rust developer. I love painting with #watercolor, #urbansketching, #knitting, #chemistry #cooking and general making and tinkering with stuff.

So, I just learned something new. The #fediverse is not just connected #mastodon instances, but actually consists of several different software platforms, all connecting via the same federating protocol! I had seen references to things like #peertube and #nextcloud, but assumed they were different platforms running on different protocols, but it turns out they're all part of the same fediverse, unified by #ActivityPub. Amazing!
Damnnnn my sleep is really fucked . I need to fix it.

Last year I started to really get into more complex backgrounds. Especially urban areas, perspective and less "natural" sceneries were what I wanted to challenge myself at. So I drew my #OCs (as I always do) in their natural surroundings - a modern urban city filled with #graphicdesign puns and references!
I think I actually got some kind of coherent story out of it - completely unplanned!

Hey, I'm Natalie. lifelong #Programmer by hobby, trade & education. I've got a strong interest in #GameEngine #Programming and #Gameplay. Currently work as a #SoftwareEngineer on #Underwater comms and #Drones. My fav language is #Rust - I also use #Cpp and #Typescript.
Trying to learn #drawing and #art. I also do #woodworking #blacksmithing #camping #YoYos occasionally.
I'll be posting about the #Projects I'm working on, or what #Music I've been listening to.

A tip for new Mastodon users...
Check out your instance's (i.e. server's) local timeline to find some people to follow. Follow them for a bit and you should find others to follow.
It'll be a bit quiet at first because there aren't all the adverts and promoted nonsense you might expect if you came from Twitter.
After a couple of weeks, your home timeline should be a steady stream of interesting toots.
(Hide the boosts of any users you still want to follow, but who boost too much.)
I meant to say **liberal communist Christians** since just being Christian doesn't make you an outsider.

My favorite thing about the fedi is just all the fucking weirdos I follow here. From Adderall-driven mathematicians to Christians, to trans techies to astronomers to people with schizophrenia that can't tell whether they are awake or asleep or in simulation to autistic systems programmers. I love all of you, my fellow outsiders.
