Discovered a nice pattern if a field of a struct has to be updated after a series of operations were performed on it, e.g. recomputing the state root of a Merkle-Patricia trie after some values were inserted. https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2021&gist=490f418f50a17f80f71a96b3caf6b875

- Add support to the client library for fetching self-reported peer manifests from a node via gRPC. - Add CLI support for fetching self-reported peer manifests and printing them to stdout as CSV. Useful to check the max master clock frame for nodes. https://github.com/agostbiro/quilibrium-rs/pull/18

Small Rust tip: you can call `transpose` on an option to turn an `Option<Result<_>>` into a `Result<Option<_>>`. Works the other way around too.

Love this. Success is just a made up concept, and if you're thinking in terms of success and failure your journey becomes a struggle. Instead, if you just experience life without any preconceptions, you can travel great distances and in perfect harmony with the universe. This is the message of the Song of the Open Road

GA! I'm working on verifying master clock frames in Rust. Currently comparing Go and Rust Poseidon hash implementations line by line to find the difference. Go seems to have better advanced crypto libraries, getting to parity in Rust will be a wild ride, but I'm here for it 🦀

Warpcast needs an accessibility feature to turn off autoplaying gifs (both in the feed and in profile pics). Don't wait for the first seizure, it's getting out of hand: https://warpcast.com/esdotge.eth/0x674d8247
