I have spent years trying (unsuccessfully) to pick up Rust as a first language as a hobby, and I always get busy at work and drop it for months at a time. I feel like I have been stumbling on the treadmill of sadness and forgetting as fast as I learn. I discovered https://docs.rs today, and think I will take a new approach. I brought my FreeBSD laptop home, and I will struggle through small to medium projects for at least 30 minutes every day. No days off. #RunBSD #rust
For my NetBSD install I wanted to include _disk encryption_ to protect personal data in case the device is lost or stolen.
Its not really enough to simply encrypt home directories. Passphrases and sensitive data can linger and be extracted from locations such as system logs and swap memory. There is a trade-off to be made between how much to encrypt, the convenience of operating the system, and the ability for the system to boot.
This is how I do it...

On my new NetBSD install I'm using 'oksh' - the portable version of OpenBSD's ksh - as my shell and wondered what in the world was going on with my arrow keys and moving through the shell history!
Adding...
set -o emacs
... to my ~/.kshrc sorted things out:
