       @codewiz Looks like it has eggs, beef, and pork: https://ameblo.jp/ajiguri/entry-12492458847.html

       @codewiz It always looks easy from a distance

       @codewiz I found https://hinative.com/ja/questions/11177224, where the German native gives a long explanation about the difference between 腹切り and 切腹 and the Japanese native is just like "同じですよ"

       @codewiz I don't think so.  Maybe it's just a matter of what I'm used to, but I find it much faster to read kanji.  At the very least, I feel like there'd need to be space around words in kana if you did pure kana.

       @codewiz it's like they accidentally put gelatin instead of sugar

       @codewiz That they even give you a set of options with straightforward pricing is a huge step up from the US.

       @codewiz did you end up getting your license some how?

       @codewiz any idea why they haven't taken over already?  Are the initial costs still higher?

       @codewiz @patrick @lubimaer @5tr34k_ @ilwoody it'd be cool if you could switch instances without giving up your username.  But that would require some sort of global naming system or piggyback off of DNS to map username to server address, but it's probably too much to ask new users to register a domain for themselves, whether it be DNS or some blockchain based name service.  That might fix the pressure toward centralization Patrick describes though.

       @codewiz @patrick @lubimaer @5tr34k_ @ilwoody it looks like this is a thing people are working on: https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/rwot9-prague/blob/master/topics-and-advance-readings/fediverse-did-integration.md I'm skeptical as to whether that many users would actually use this though since it'd almost certainly be more involved than the status quo of creating an account on an instance.

       @codewiz What would Rust do?  Not very familiar with Rust but it seems like it would give you a compile error if the function were a const fn , according to https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/const_eval.html.  If it weren't a const fn, you'd get a panic in debug mode and silent overflow in release?  And if it were a const fn that returned Option/Error, then you'd be safe but have to unwrap at runtime I think.  Would be nice if you could configure a const fn to cause a compile error when returning None/Error.

       @codewiz Here's a tiny example of Rust erroring out at compile time on overflow (didn't even have to designate the fn as const): https://rust.godbolt.org/z/P8Kx6aaMK.  As far as I can tell, Rust doesn't give you the option to emit a warning/error when a particular const fn returns None/Error.

       @codewiz My previous Toot was wrong so I deleted it; it turns out Rust is actually panicking at runtime, not compile time on integer overflow in a const fn: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/hvPY1YvGz

       @codewiz I got it to error out at compile time: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/qhhTxb8hr.  Had to change from calling the const fn in the argument list of println!() to first assigning the result of the const fn to a const variable, then calling println!() with that variable, so it would evaluate the const fn in a const context (defined at https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/const_eval.html#const-context).

       @codewiz could you have the conversion function return the equivalent of Rust's Result type and creating a STATIC_UNWRAP macro that hides the template grossness?

       @codewiz what are your thoughts on declarative package management?  It seems like you should be able to layer a declarative interface on top of imperative package managers, but for some reason, it seems like not many people do that in practice.  Context: trying to decide which Linux distro to use for my main development VM.  I like the idea of declarative package management, but not sure if it's worth it committing to Nix/Guix/Silverblue, with the smaller ecosystem/community right now.

       @codewiz My goal is to be able to spin up a fresh dev VM easily from some config stored in a git repo instead of having to manually reinstall packages and stuff.  Perhaps my Google-fu is too weak, but most of the info I'm finding basically boils down to "use Nix/Guix".  How do people typically solve this with other distros?
