Not that people arguing in bad faith care but learning how to detect logical fallacies is very, very important.

And honestly it's kind of fun to look for them when a jerk tries to use them against you.

Thou shalt not commit logical fallacies

A logical fallacy is a flaw in reasoning. Logical fallacies are like tricks or illusions of thought, and they're often very sneakily used by politicians and the media to fool people.

A follow-up post regarding the Mastodon search tips:

If the search options don't work, the reason might be that your Mastodon instance maintainer hasn't implemented Elasticsearch.

Also important: do not use capitals anywhere in the search conditions. E.g.: "From:me" doesn't work.

Day 33 of #100DaysOfRust

I continued learning #Rust today and am almost at the end of the basic course. It's "tedious" for me now because I don't really understand it yet. That means I'll have to look at a lot of things again in the future to deepen my #knowledge. On the other hand, it is fun to #program a web server to learn the program #procedure more directly. But I knew from the start that you don't learn #RustLang in a hurry 🦀

Day 29 of #100DaysOfRust

I have now returned to learning #Rust in addition to the workload between the #holiday's. Today I learned how to integrate C solutions, for example, via an '#Unsafe Rust'. I hope not to have to use it in the future or even use libraries that need it - the #future will tell. But still, it's good to have this #knowledge, for use or for criticism. I certainly don't have the #RustLang learning foundation behind me before the end of this year 🦀
