The app has just changed to use the X and this is the closest I've been to just logging off and deleting it

Definitely completely unrelated, https://t.co/ZPAbKXhDEC now has quick access links to effectively all of my social accounts

@H2CO3_iOS If you haven't, _consider_ emailing [email protected] about the interaction. They can't change the past, but they could readjust for the future.

Nonetheless, I wish you good luck in your future endeavors, whatever they may be.

Esoteric @rustlang knowledge quiz:

Which of these lines compile without error?

let _ = Option::<>::Some(0); // A
let _ = <Option::<>>::Some(0); // B

If you don't recognize it, that's qualified path syntax, most often used for `<Type as Trait>::method`.

@imperioworld_ The bit being potentially missed is the true pointer crimes; it was never about the const/mut cast, it was about laundering the pointer provenance

[Crystal 🏳️‍⚧️ @CAD97_]

I'm innocent, I promise! (they were not) #rustlang

[Crystal 🏳️‍⚧️ @CAD97_]

@jynelson514 @sxrademakers @imperioworld_ It's not about the const to mut cast anyway, that's just me being lazy and not using a separate mut version. It's about laundering provenance.

Beware `&mut as *const _`; that has gone through `&` previously, making writes UB, needing `as *mut _ as *const _`. Maybe fixed now tho.

Is this a job offer? (insert the "is this a pigeon" meme)

[Crystal 🏳️‍⚧️ @CAD97_]

lol, because I'm using GitHub Pages to host https://t.co/rcEVkyX7jQ, the github-io docs for pointer-utils are under that domain now as well :D

btw, I'm actively looking for work, if you know anyone looking for a junior tooling/engine dev. (Master's level exp. in video game dev.)

@Learningtosayh1 @UmActuallyShow It's unclear! Illyria was used by an earlier author as a stand in for Troy and it's unknown whether Shakespeare was using Illyria in that way or as Balkan Illyria. Ross got the point either way.

@__phantomderp The "fun" I end up with because of this and FFI that decided to stick with a `typedef int LIB_BOOL;`

Actually I'm ripping this one back out and just going to do the conversion on the fly but still sheesh

@TWLadyGrey @_michaelmay_ Good news: I have located confirmation that the forgiveness term is still capped at 20 or 25 years. This is from the full "read more" fact sheet which is now linked from the announcement. Though I'm fairly certain it wasn't until recently. https://t.co/ByBam16tGg (pdf)

It's actually just barely possible to paste text into it since the field is still there, just cancelling interactions
But doing so resulted in losing the birthday field info on save, because of course it does
Wanna bet the "extended profile info" doesn't store that field anymore?

[Crystal 🏳️‍⚧️ @CAD97_]

Profile edit on the Android app has a pronouns field (yay!) but trying to actually tap on it to edit it does the quick interaction animation but nothing else (fun!) so it's not possible to edit

@eddyb_r @khyperia @zornsllama @FreyaHolmer I am extremely Not Surprised when anything in gamedev space defaults even to ffastmath mode. Gotta go fast!
...which is probably where the "floats are nondeterministic" mythos comes from. Though sometimes it's actually about translation independence instead of scale independence.

@dantheshive I'm sorry? Because now you're down to 7774 :(

It wasn't me, I remain following

[Crystal 🏳️‍⚧️ @CAD97_]

@dantheshive Somebody followed you. Does that mean I should unfollow to return to 7777?
