Every once in a while, like three-ish times so far, I see that someone has me blocked on Twitter that I had zero interaction with. I assume it's one of those viral blocks, where the list is populated based on follows or followers. Makes me curious how that flag got raised.

Pro tip: If you're booking a train in Toronto, and you need to book a hotel because it's very early. Check the Maple Leaf's schedule first. :|

Tech layoffs affect immigrants the most! 5–15% of the 100k+ layoffs are H-1B holders. In 60 days (30-45 in practice), they must find a new job or be deported from the US. Families who've been here 10+yrs are told "We don't need you anymore. Leave." 10+ tips to stay– 1/12

Most of the time that Rust's compiler bites my ankle over ownership is the second time I use the thing. The first time it silently moves. Interesting dynamic.

Should be relatively obvious... but the difference between a bland meal (ex: plain rice, chicken) can be a few squirts of salad dressing.

Fiddle with your schedule to catch up on sleep. <two hours before alarm> Brain> I don't know why you've been cutting sleep lately, and I don't like it, but rise and shine, buttercup.

Forgetting that you made coffee kind-of sucks. Thankfully, the solution is to have a coffee.

BTW, just in case you care about what you drunkenly toilet-typed into this maw of effluence, you can download an archive of basically everything. So when your grandkids ask what you did in the Great Social Media Wars, you can confess your sins in full.

So... linked lists. About the only efficient (as in "could not be done better with a vector, which may contain unique_ptrs") use that I can think of is lockless algorithms, like LIFO queues of unknown size. Am I forgetting anything?
