I unwrap like a mad man while building a proof of concept. It’s the same as approaching say a multithreaded program. You always get the single thread to work first and then worry about adding thread handling later.

Same as result and option handling, that’s for when I want to stabilise my code before finalising for release.

I’m 31 and I declare I’m too old to relearn the muscle memory. I acceot the occasional need to retie my laces.

I don’t think you need to have the largest following to have great value, even lemmy as it is right now feels great. I’ll actually want to dive into comment sections compared to the endless scrolling on reddit.

As long as there’s enough people using a platform for a variety of ideas and experience in topics, I think that’s good enough for me.
