Rust paths and emoji

[notriddle]

This topic used to have the emoji in its title.

Idea: "Ambient data"/"Current execution context"/ Was: Provide a thread-local scope with hooks for `std­։։­thread­։։­spawn`

Sometimes it’s necessary to implement a form of “implicit context” to pass a data too cumbersome to pass explicity everywhere. Eg. in slog there’s slog-scope that allows setting a “current logger”, for a duration of a function call. The called code can then retrieve and use that logger even deep down the call stack. It’s not really global variable, though it is implicitly passed around. Internally this is just implemented as thread-local Vector of objects. https://docs.rs/slog-scope/4.0.1/src/s…

I "fixed" it using this character, which, technically, isn't a colon ։

p.s. Could the mods turn off emoji in thread titles?

It’s a little silly that it parsed the emoji, but not the backtick quotes surrounding it.

why not turn off emoji names?

you should still be able to use real unicode emoji ofc.
