Last night I had an idea, which made me stay up two hours longer than I wanted.
I built a useless tool: [lysbilder](https://github.com/badboy/lysbilder/), the slide system no one needed.
Today I tweeted about it and then went out to enjoy the day a bit:
> [@badboy_](https://twitter.com/badboy_/status/1046378708527976449):
I might have built a very useless slideshow tool on top of rustdoc, generated from code documentation, linked by trait implementations.

> Please don’t use it¹.

> ¹: however, I will use it once.
Quickly I got some responses:
> [@myriamjessier](https://twitter.com/myriamjessier/status/1046382236013129729):
> I laughed. It was good enough to retweet just because of that.
and
> [@QuietMisdreavus](https://twitter.com/QuietMisdreavus/status/1046411069529477121):
> i love this so much
Those made me smile and made my sunday a bit better. :)
