So a while ago i made a snake game in rust. The game had two UIs, a TUI and a GUI. When i made that game i was using the i3 window manger which uses xorg as a display server, now i am using hyprland which is a wayland display server.

Here is what happened the GUI version of the snake game was using a lib called microquad to actually draw the window and it turns out that microquad doesn't support wayland (the new display server i am using) so i can't run the GUI version without switching my display server to xorg.
The other problem, the TUI library i was using ruscii needs to talk to your display server to get your keyboard input. Guess what they don't support wayland either πŸ˜‚ they only support xorg, so the screen get's drawn and the snake moves across the screen but i can't move it around because the program expects an xorg display server to be running to know which keys i click on.

What does this mean?

It's just a funny situation that i have changed my system so much that now i can't even get a program i wrote to run on it πŸ˜‚. It's also making me question my switch to wayland because if my own program doesn't support it why would i expect other people's programs to support it πŸ˜‚.

AWS error messages be like πŸ˜‚.

Had to translate it to "human-speak" using Bard:
"The string must be a single word, without any spaces, double quotes, or the @ character."

The people who get rich in software are the ones who create the tools that other people use. It's not about the language you use, but about the value you create.

Look at DHH (first image, creator of Ruby on Rails) and Taylor (second image, creator of Laravel).

They're both successful, but they didn't get rich by using PHP or Ruby. They got rich by making tools that millions of developers use every day.
