Each day that ends in "I finally worked out the proper incantation to satisfy Hibernate." is quickly followed by "Why the fuck did they choose hibernate?!?"

@AFSeattle are you aware your event notification email arrived only 26-hours in advance of tomorrow's event? I'm sure subscribers would appreciate a little more notice.

@julianhyde @kristopherkane @ApacheCalcite Only hilbert, or will geo index be configurable? Support for altitude and time as well?

@clehene @duolingo Accomplished!

@rustlang @tokio_rs That's not quite fair. The borrow checker is pleasant compared to the self-recursive pit of despair that are nontrivial tokio generics.

@conikeec @jaykreps @nehanarkhede @confluentinc Wait, what? Have things recently changed *significantly* ?
