  • I don’t know how old you are and whether you need to hear this, but it is totally fine to look the way you look. You are either your hardest critic, or surrounded by the wrong people. This sounds like such a tiny detail that most probably won’t even notice.

    Look at yourself in a mirror from 2 m / 6 ft away. That’s how most people see you. Occasionally people might be half as far away. Are they really that stricking?

    The most obvious things always receive the most attention. A stylish haircut, or a great outfit or a cool tattoo will leave a bigger impression than any vein or scar or whatever else.
















  • I mean, Rust has the massive upsite that it won’t compile in many cases if you fuck things up. Then again, embedded or generally low-level driver-y stuff is still in its infancy in Rust. Relative to C/C++ that is.

    There is stuff that you need that has no official Rust support. There is poor documentation and half baked frameworks. There are examples being silently outdated, breaking changes between framework versions, and nighlty-versions from Github mixed in to fix them. And then of course plenty of timing and hardware dependent things you will need to do yourself.

    I do this for a living and personally tried to use AI here and there to help me out, but oftentimes it fails miserably. Not always, but very often.
