"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free.
But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
(Frank Herbert, Dune, 1965)

For the first time in almost ten years, we have proper PWM OLED brightness control for this old a-- laptop!
More details later. May or may not come to a mainline kernel near you.
Wait, what is this thing?
Not only did you somehow survived, you got upgraded to the OLED panel too?
Well, I guess I'm stuck with you for another ten years ...
So long, X1 yoga. You've served me well.
Rest in peace.

Grad school be like:
I don't know what I'm talking about. My advisor doesn't know what he's talking about. But somehow we talked for more than two hours and now my prototype is done.
Pro: watching a clown car crashing into the abyss is hilarious.
Con: I'm strapped on said clown car...
For me personally, the worst part of Rust is that unfinished code is often riddled with compiler errors. It's especially annoying if you have rust-analyzer
turned on.
But it's also quite helpful at times. An example being reminding me of my countless unfinished projects... (And I won't even bring up the usual point that compilable code often just works. It's a pretty common trait among languages whose type system doesn't suck.)
