Too bad my electric double bass will never sound as majestic as an acoustic one.

@movq Yikes, true! The hail covered road looks super sick. I'm very glad living in my area.
@movq Having juggled all the low level bits makes one also appreciate higher level languages. At least that's my own experience.

easy run on the treadmill today since we have a lot going on and i had to watch the kiddos. split into three 5kms with first and last at about 10:55 pace, and the middle 5km at about a 9:14 pace. nothing crazy, felt good, kept it in the blue and finished it strong.

Speaking of programming languages, I’m so glad that I’ve spent so much time doing C and a little bit of Assembler over the years. It’s the perfect foundation for my recently acquired retrocomputing hobby. 😅 You can target basically any platform with C – DOS, OS/2, Windows NT, UNIX, … Had I gone all-in on Java (as University and employers nudged me to in the mid-2000’s), I probably wouldn’t have this skill set now. 🤔

@prologic Rust just isn’t the best tool for every job, even though that’s what the “cult” around it wants to make you believe.

I’m surprised that the article doesn’t talk about the ecosystem and the large number of dependencies that you usually pull in. 🤔 Maybe the author is already used to that.

By the way, @xuu, it looks like you're running an old, buggy version of yarnd, that duplicates twts in the feed on edit.
@xuu @bender Yeah, we're quite lucky with this very, very wet summer this year. It's supposed to be just 21°C today, good hiking conditions. Some nice 16°C to cool off the house right now, I love it. Tomorrow, temps are rising again, though.

The 26°C humidity was through the roof and we just barely escaped the thunderstorm on our stroll. Only the adjacent rain hit us hard. Black clouds caught up on us and we decided to take cover at a barn. Not even a minute later it started to rain cats and dogs for ten minutes straight. Holy crap, that was cool to watch. :-) Also, the smell of rain was just beautiful.

We then decided to continue our return in the light drizzle. But it then got much heavier again and we got completely soaked. With the wet t-shirt and the wind it actually felt rather cold. I anticipated to get rained on, so I left my camera at home. Plenty of paths turned into brook landscapes, several centimeter deep creeks ran down the hilly trails. Quite fascinating. :-)

The sunset a few minutes ago wasn't too bad:

This is the whole point of this Yarn where I'm trying to figure out with y'all to see if there might possibly be a way to formally measure and manage complexity, budget of a software, system or organization.

@movq well that depends on what this 2000 lines of coat does right does the 2000 lines of code basically amount to a linear set of instructions with no branching? Or is that 2000 lines of Covid include lots of conditional branching that make understanding what the program does, difficult and hard to maintain?

@movq That's what I'm implying yea! 👌 if we can figure out how to measure complexity, we can figure out how to control complexity and thereby keep software systems and even organizations more simple and easier to manage potentially even more cost-effective.
