Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

it's really weird how MIPS has a full set of arithmetic operations that trap on overflow (although r6 repurposed the immediate one), but the divide instruction doesn't trap on division by zero you have to manually cehck

Is this a fedi polycule or a chart of galaxies in the local supercluster

i hate it when people joke about TempleOS or the guy who made it
as a fellow schizophrenic
he was obviously very unwell
there's absolutely nothing funny about any of it

Recently a document came out showing that Automattic, the company that currently owns Tumblr, failed to meet their expectations for revitalizing the site. I could point out how I think their strategy was flawed, but there's an underlying problem that I think is more interesting.

But the underlying problem still remains: The Internet is no longer a place for people to share themselves. Instead it's gradually becoming something to passively enjoy as algorithms feed you content to keep you engaged. Where that content comes from and who makes it is becoming less and less important, because there's no direct line from content creation to corporate profits.
Parool-- voor het omschrijven van "oversteken zonder oversteekplaats" als "wegpiraterij". Dat mag gewoon in Nederland, he, daar is niets 'wegpiraterij' aan.

Hey Colohouse, you know that this isn't how that works, right? Especially when you bulk-send this e-mail to every one of your customers, *including* the customers who have nothing but a $0 lifetime backup space plan because of your recent acquisition 🙃

In light of the GitHub Universe announcements where they announce they are “re-founded on Copilot” allow me to re-present my blog post:

I’m very adamant about using “toot” instead of “post”. I’ll die on this hill, but hopefully not today because I have lots of errands to run, like buying stamps at the toot office.

I don't have the time or energy for it, but something I'd love to do some day is write a reference document that's just informal explanations of every common math intrinsic, and what sorts of things you can do with it. Pretty much the math text book I wish I had when I was first teaching myself how to program as a tween.
idk I think this avenue might not be a fruitful one
Current protocol design status: I need a type of number that works differently
