Got a patch merged into #rust's serde project today. That felt nice and productive.

I wish #rayon (the #rust concurrent iterator library) had functionality for obtaining a sorted sequential iterator on the results of a parallelized map. For a large enough data-set, the completion order of the tasks will be close-enough to sorted that you can do this with much less memory overhead than calling `.collect::<Vec<_>>` on the ParallelIterator.

#rust 1.29 is out
