Should probably be watching The Death of Stalin on this the eve of the next four years, but I happen to be watching Armando Ianucci's David Copperfield adaptation instead.

And now a game of "guess that movie" with my almost-five year old:
Kiddo: I want to watch the movie with the people who go into the 'tricity
Us: ...
K: they go into the electricity
...
K: the big boy and the little girl
...
It was "Ralph Breaks The Internet".
The "electricity" is when they get uploaded to the internet.

I see a bunch of folks getting rid of their FB and IG accounts and moving elsewhere (bsky usually) in response to Meta's new bootlicking policy. Are folks leaving WhatsApp too? I seem to recall everyone in the EU was using that by default instead of carrier SMS. Is sentiment shifting? Where is everyone going?

Why is MSRV a thing? What are the scenarios where someone might stay on an old toolchain and not bump to the latest stable rust? Naively I expected language editions to solve problems that would prevent always using the latest stable.

finally watching the non-Lynch D*ne movie and I just can't with how they pronounce Harkonnen.
Also hot take: they should've made the new movies based on the 90's video game, not the original books. The universe is unbalanced without Ordos

Turns out kids don't have an inner monologue until age 6-7 on average. I was asking kiddo to stop whispering after lights out and it turns out that it might be literally impossible for like another year or two https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7090223/

Answering my own question, you apparently do this:
pwsh.exe -Command {
param([hashtable]$ce, [string[]]$child_args)
foreach ($key in $ce.Keys) {
$v = $ce[$key]
Set-Item -Path "Env:\$key" -Value $v
}
foo.exe @child_args
} -Args @($ChildEnv, $ChildArgs)
This is high grade bullshit

Question for powershell experts:
I have a script "foo-wrapper.ps1" that does:
Start-Process -FilePath foo.exe -Environment @{ "SOMETHING" = "abcd"} -Wait -NoNewWindow
Is there a way to make:
.\foo-wrapper 2>&1 > log.txt
actually emit the output (and errors) of foo.exe into the log?
The output of Start-Process always goes to the console. I know the Start-Process cmdlet has redirect options, but I don't want those. I want to redirect the entire output of my script.

Does any language without dependent types let you use _ as a placeholder for an inferred value when the context allows for only a single (canonical, in some sense) inhabitant?
for example if the expected type is Result<(),E> in rust, could the compiler infer that Ok(_) means Ok(())? Has anyone experimented with usability of something like that?

In further Rust-is-not-Haskell news, it expects me to put ';' everywhere like a caveman
Seriously... I dunno what it is, but like... I have no problem adding semicolons to C/C++/C# code, and even TypeScript. but somehow Rust triggers some part of my brain that insists I'm in a whitespace-sensitive language and all the ';' go missing

Annoying rust papercut.
Many types have an enter<F,R>(f: F) -> R where F : FnOnce(&Resource) -> R method that lets a closure access a resource temporarily to compute some result and return it.
But as soon as you try to turn such a function into a method on a trait object you end up writing
