Tesla rolls out "range update" for Model S, Model X display to reflect improved efficiency. Model X shows a whopping 354 miles of range. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-s-model-x-range-boost-ota/

I've just realized that #Rust has eliminated defensive coding for me.

Defensive coding is "I know it's not supposed to be `null`, but I'll check just in case" or "I know the caller isn't supposed to mutate or free this object, but I'll make a copy just in case" or "I know that function should be thread-safe, but I'll avoid threads just in case"

In Rust nullability, mutability and thread-safety are encoded in types, so I never have to second-guess them.

"It's important to remember what this case is really about," says human rights attorney @suigenerisjen of Julian Assange's extradition hearing in the U.K. "Casualties and abuse of detainees in Iraq and Afghanistan, war crimes, human rights abuse … corruption the world over."

- Drag & drop support
- Window focus nav & search

"There are two ways of constructing a software design:

One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.

The first method is far more difficult."
