So, this is … disastrous.

Mastodon

Mastodon.social is adding full text. That's not what concerns me right now. The problem is that "get your account indexed in full-text search" is *the same option* as "have your account listed in 'search for account by name'". The result is that people are now turning this option off en masse. (Even before the option rolls out, meaning if Eugen changes his mind, the damage will be done). It will soon be basically impossible to find an account

I am in Rust. I have a Vec<f64> and I need to convert it to a Vec<f32>. I find the only way that works to do this is to say: let outdata2 = outdata.iter().map(|x|*x as f32).collect::<Vec<f32>>(); It felt like I should be able to say let outdata2 = outdata.map(f32::from); But (1) there's no map on Vec, only Iter, and (2) if I say outdata.iter.map, now I'm iterating over &f64s not f64s and f32::from no longer works. This whole thing felt *very* messy and unfunctional. What am I missing?

Biggest fail I've ever seen from Google… 🙅

GUITAR WITCH vs GUN TWINK

So. Homebrew is illegal now too, then? EDIT: People seem to be misunderstanding this screenshot. This is me running a program installed by Brew and it being blocked by macOS Gatekeeper. You can see me executing it from the command line and you can see in the error message that Homebrew downloaded it. Although brew is in general working for me, this particular formula's app got blocked. After making the post I resolved the problem and do not need help.

Something I've been thinking about this week is the "pirate" / "archivist" distinction and the delightful thought of a "pirate" in the sense of the 1700s nautical pirate or possibly an analogous profession in space, but for some reason about 30% of these pirates self-describe as "archivists" rather than pirates and for some contextual reason nobody challenges them on this

Is anyone familiar with Pipewire for Linux and is it good. Does it solve the Problems

So Adrian Tchaikovsky is one of my favorite authors, and I particularly like his novellas, and he's got these three novellas that I always felt were kind of of a piece, they were approaching the idea of Late Capitalist Apocalypses from different angles. I always thought they should just put those three novellas together in a single book. …anyway, apparently I wasn't the only one thinking that, because they did exactly that! It's a new collection named "Terrible Worlds": https://www.amazon.ca/Terrible-Worlds-Revolutions-Adrian-Tchaikovsky/dp/1786188880
