“Just because you can do it in Bash doesn’t mean you should” is a chorus I can often be heard singing to anyone who will listen. Today was one of the days where the research into how I would need to approach a Rust project resulted in 5 lines of Bash that did exactly what I needed. Sometimes you definitely should just do it in Bash! #linux #devops #rust

Well I jumped the gun here. Buffering killed me. Went back to a Rust solution that was much easier than I expected. Some say #Rust is no good for rapid prototyping, but the more I write the fewer errors I run into at compile time. When I do get errors the solution is usually in the error message. Pretty fast path to a working application in general.
