Current status: resisting the human instinct to write new database software from scratch

I started making these silly images for mainstream social media platforms when I announce my streams because my friend told me that text-only posts (especially containing links) will be buried automatically by them and its much better to post an image and then post the link as a comment. IDK if this is still true, I think its silly but whatever, when in rome....

@lawremipsum@mspsocial.net I was very lucky / privileged in that my parents pushed me to do this but also didn't force it against my will. and it helped that my dad worked at the college. I didn't really get any social connection out of school because of how my family treated it as a corrupted/evil institution to be avoided or exploited, not a legitimate place for young ppl to find community. I didn't get real community (besides online) until going to college and becoming an alcoholic

@lawremipsum@mspsocial.net I was home schooled, when I did go to school for a short time I took the "AP" classes in highschool, my experience in class was being told by my classmates that everyone thought i was most likely to be a school shooter. They were v. wrong, I just didn't really want to be there, i was putting up with it because i wanted to make sure I could get into college. The second semester of "highschool" I went to, what would have been my senior year, I took all college classes.

@lawremipsum@mspsocial.net ohhhhh y'all are talking about something specific in public school, I thought this was just about how adults treat kids in general

@lawremipsum@mspsocial.net where's "it fucked me up but I came out OK" ?

@f0x maybe you are just a fan of Andromeda Software Development ???

@f0x @starless @j3s thanks for the update I was out buying groceries 🍅 🧀 🍞 🥬

There's nothing I can do right now, cyberwurx.com and customer.cyberwurx.com are all down right now. I can't ping baikal. it sounds like they are trying to get everything up and running again after a power failure. I've sent a message to cyberwurx on facebook 🙃

@f0x Yeah, what happened to me today was an example of link rot -- in theory the go module proxy would have solved this problem, but this time it caused it.

Go has always been driven by google and decisions they have made about its architecture have always been primarily about what's good for them -- For example the way modules used to work, where they weren't versioned, (different version is a different repo), seems crazy everywhere except at google.

Honestly this is just an example of "man yells at cloud" but I think its important to be aware of how the module system works; I'm kinda 😳 that I didn't even really know about this until it broke my workflow.

I liked the idea of golang's module system (every module is just a url) because it seemed to invite more decentralization in packaging, welp, today I discovered firsthand just how wrong I was: github.com/golang/go/issues/51

Ok, article is updated with several factual accuracy fixes and additional info, and I'm publishing it wider now.

I was looking for an easy-to-read page w/ info on what common features processes have on Mac, Windows, and Linux. I **COULD NOT FIND ANY** on the web.

How the heck did this happen!? At any rate, here's the missing article, just had to write it first.

sequentialread.com/what-is-a-p

I could not find any concise but useful single page descriptions of what a process is and what you can do with a process, so I decided to write my own:

sequentialread.com/what-is-a-p

@f0x I enjoyed reading this but I almost enjoyed looking at that cat image in the link preview even more
