#rustlang

Okay, I finally decided to try @dystroy's `bacon` for #RustLang (dystroy.org/bacon/) and it's great! I'm going to turn off inline error/warning messages in my editor in favor of this tool running off to the side. I immediately found it to be so much easier to identify and fix compiler errors/warnings over my standard editor + `cargo watch -x check` workflow.

I don't think I'd know about bacon if it wasn't for @noboilerplate's videos, so thanks to Tris for sharing and of course Denys for makin' that bacon. :)

@amackif yes, agreed.

And I would also consider chrono as "broken/unfitting/lacking". The jiff docs explain why much better than I could.

I think as it comes to date and time handling, the reason isn't lack of interest but the huge complexity of time zones, daylight saving time shifts, and leap periods.

I admire the teams behind RFC 9557, Temporal as well as BurntSushi for taking this on.
