tabletop gaming aid opinions
awhile ago I prototyped a gaming aid that uses a thermal printer to generate stuff (hirelings, NPCs, weather, foods/drinks/potions, monsters, events, maps, mazes, puzzles, etc). The output can be filed away for later reference.
I built it because I don’t like using computers/screens at the table. during COVID this device wasn’t useful but I’m thinking of picking it back up, refining it, and posting a build guide.
if you play tabletop RPGs does this appeal to you?
Mara posted a fantastic article about Converting u128 values to f64 (unsigned 128-bit integers to 64-bit floating-point numbers), give it a read!
Je viens de finir de lire "La Sorcellerie Est Un Sport De Combat" de @crowdagger et bien je recommande, si vous avez les mêmes goûts que moi bien sûr. Des sorcières, des segfaults.

As of nushell 0.62.0, if you get a `nu::shell` error, you'll get a link you can click (first image).
If you click on that link, it'll take you straight to the docs (in docs.rs!) for that error (second image), with a handy "Resolution" section!
Yay miette! #rust
for those who don't already know, miette is an error/diagnostic crate for #rust that extends `std::error::Error` with additional metadata, such as error codes, help text, documentation/reference links, and even pretty-printed diagnostics. Check it out: https://crates.io/crates/miette

The most promising of these IMO is Crystal. Its syntax is inspired by Ruby, but it's statically typed and ahead-of-time compiled with LLVM. Unlike Go, it has sum types which are used to represent nil-able values, like Rust's Option<T>. Like Go, it has a garbage collector, and uses green threads and channels for concurrency.
