I've got a blog and some other stuff. Continually tinkering with CSS, and continually procrastinating writing up a backlog of ideas.

Given how well-established cloudflare is, I would've figured they'd be profitable by now. That raises the question: why does so much of the web rely on a company which does not have the means to sustain itself?

The small cyrillic letters in the rust example are oddly appealing to my eye. Kinda like smallcaps in a latin script

I really like rust's pattern matching and it's the feature I miss the most in other languages. However, I feel like its easy to encode too much control flow in one match statement and make a garbled mess. The first example in the article uses all the features (destructuring, @ sigil, inline if, etc.) which I think makes it unreadable.

Overall good article, but those large match statements are difficult to read.
