  I mean, that’s already a thing? Check out sankakucomplex.com, it’s basically what you described. It’s also slow as shit and the quality of its free tier is questionable, but it works and that’s enough for a lot of people.

  There is a function that does what you are asking for.

  .unarap_or()

  It either unwraps the value or uses a provided default. Personally, i think unwrap() should be renamed unwrap_or_panic() to follow existing conventions and prevent confusion for non-rust programmers.

  Honesty good for them. Companies that ban mature content are the worst.

  I have a standing desk. I use it all the time. Reading about all these people who just sit down while they work on stuff feels weird, like, how do you get anything done? I don’t even have a chair, it would be pointless. If I want to sit, I just go to the couch.

  Well, how would you spell it? I don’t have time to look up every word I don’t remember the spelling of when I’m typing from a phone.

  Here’s one, it certainly got a laugh out of me

  The store I work at mostly hires immigrants. While I would say that the language barrier is squing things a little, my coworkers generally have never handled technology before, even if they were previously in a role that had a high level of education.

  Take one of my coworkers for example. When she asked me what I was reading, my fumbled attempt to explain fanfiction might as well have been pure gibrish. She didn’t even have a concept of a book that isn’t educational, never mind not knowing the translation of “fiction”. After explaining the concept, she said “Oh, like the Bible?”

  I think I might have done a mental bluescreen at that one.

  Even just this last week, she seemed to be genuenly confuzed when I explained that I was writing a book. She kept asking “oh, are you in school then?” as if the only reason to ever write stuff was for school.

  Anyways, my point is; the average everyday person has likely never so much as owned a smartphone, never mind knows how to boot off a usb drive. It’s not just an immigrant thing either, my familly is almost utterly unable to have conversations with me because they don’t even recognize 3/4ths of the words I need to use to describe the concept I need to explain to explain why I was laughing at a meme.

  And how many bottles are still in your closet? Because that’s always the first thing you should check after thinking that particular thought.
