The sequel to Rust is a pure type system with no actual code allowed. There are now 4000 string types, and the compiler erases your system files in retribution whenever you make a type error, but that's okay because it has zero runtime cost.

Do you want to work on @AWSAmplify? It's *such* a fun product - we're building tools that allow frontend and mobile developers to build fullstack apps. We even launched Figma to React component functionality this year! Here's a thread with some open roles 🧵

Using @multimeric's tidyMultiQC R package and exporting the tidy dataframe to .parquet was a breeze: r-bloggers.com/2021/09/under… ... But then I thought that perhaps @tallphil is interested in having a multiqc_data_tidy.json export for MultiQC (to not break the current json output)?

you might think the 3 in boto3 signifies "it's the aws sdk for python 3" but it's actually a whimsical in-joke about how there are 3 ways to do anything with boto (but usually only one works)
