I'm a huge fan of Swift's 'Error Handling Rationale' design document: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift/blob/9315673c003875158852579bd1f33480cdec5461/docs/ErrorHandlingRationale.md#fundamentals It carefully defines terminology and compares with other languages, so you can understand Swift's position and preference in the design space.

Caddy is really growing on me. It's nice having a web proxy that includes letsencrypt functionality without any additional configuration. I've tended to use nginx with a separate letsencrypt setup for projects before, and it's much more awkward.

It's so hard to talk about probabilities. Casual conversation often conflates 'the likelihood of an event happening' with 'how strongly I believe in my assessment'. For example, I'm very confident (say 90%) that the coin in my pocket is 50% likely to land on heads.
