"Unfortunately" this doesn't generalize to all attributes, so you can't have a cursed syntax like that:

struct Lol {  
    #!\[derive(Copy, Clone, Debug)\]  
}

fn nope() {  
    #!\[test\]  
}

#Rust has meta attributes that can apply to entire modules, like #[cfg(…)], #[allow(…)] and #[deny(…)].

The #[…] attribute syntax used outside of a module is equivalent to #![…] syntax inside it:

#\[cfg(windows)\]  
mod win {  
}

mod win {  
  #!\[cfg(windows)\]      
}

You have to use #![…] attribute syntax at the top of the lib.rs file, because there's no outer file that has the `mod` declaration for lib.rs.

"A California judge on Friday ruled that a 2020 ballot measure exempting rideshare and food delivery drivers from a state labor law is unconstitutional because it infringes on the Legislature’s power to set workplace standards."

Now, how much did Uber and Lyft pump into that campaign? Some matter of hundreds of millions, wasn't it? Ah yes:

"Proposition 22 is on track to become the most well-funded ballot initiative in California history.

It has already drawn about $200 million, most of it on the pro side. As of 10 days before the election, the anti-side had around $19 million, coming mainly from labor organizations. The pro-side has over $199 million coming from gig companies. As of the beginning of October, Uber had contributed over $50 million; Lyft, $48 million; DoorDash, $47 million; InstaCart, $28 million; and Postmates, $11 million."

Funny how these companies can find that kind of money when it *really* matters. (To them)

omg this is so cool, a dinosaur found almost perfectly preserved.

Even after centuries of food apartheid, the region I live in is so abundant with food, that I gave myself a tummy ache from eating too many grapes while hiking, and I didn't even stop to pick grapes, I just grabbed the ripe ones that I walked past. Imagine what this land would be capable of with our cooperation.

I started the 80s as a small child and ended it as a scrawny teen, and I'm still getting surprised by music videos and things I'd never seen from that period. Seems like there has always been way too much to see even before we haphazardly connected to each other on the internet. I just dig the hair and makeup on Patty Smyth in the middle of this video.

One other thing making me wary of compact phones now is the signal sensitivity. My Xperia Z5c is really bad at picking up signal in places where my wife's Pixel 2 works more or less fine. I don't know if the problem is specific to this model, or is just due to smaller antenna.

Looks like I'm going to have to replace my aging phone. It's not even 5 years old, but every UI interaction with "modern" apps take seconds. The only thing that works fast on it is my own app :-)

Unfortunately choosing one is going to be painful as it looks like the industry gave up on making normally sized phones that work, and I'll have to get the same shovel-sized monstrosity everyone seems to carry around :-(

Thanks you two for such a great "game" :)
