I used VThreads recently with good results I should say. In my case I limited concurrency by a blocking queue of concurrent tasks. So number of virtual threads does not keep rising based of millions of input records I was processing. I foun

Huge fun. Besides mixing/matching like this I mix across languages and that give an extra dimension to create such fun phrases.

Good read. I like the part that both writing low level as well as high level component in Rust was proven worthwhile. Maybe one can transform slow code from high level languages to low level language via LLMs in future. That can be nice per

You are right. Since that is not happening the next best thing is to juice the oldies. At least more countries have started doing that.

Good point. IME it is quite common all over the world for grownups to chip in towards family expense if they are staying more than a few weeks back home. If not cash it could be some other way.

You win some you lose some. Google could have continued with Google code. Microsoft could've continued with their phone OS. It is difficult to know when to hold and when to fold.

Exactly right. Indulgences become necessity when one moves up the affluence ladder. I love your go-to bag example which I wished to have but never did. In a weird way because I have more time to pack but not much resources or time to travel
