Gmail is going to be Google's System/390 mainframes.

According to Homeland Security, within 100 miles of the border is a "constitution free zone". So there's a whole lot to unpack before we even get to miranda rights.

Historia Civilis somehow distills subjects down to squares in a great way. Entertaining and informative. Fantastic channel.

If you read the article, you'll see that they did in fact meet the full requirements by August 2021. The EAU plus criteria were met quickly, but they did meet every criteria normal…

I feel like the song suggestions also vary depending on the music service. For example the other day, "Play cicada by Igor" got me Cicadidae by Igorrr on YT Music (this is what I w…

It's unclear to me why I'd want to use this over libcaca or similar? The demoscene has made really excellent ASCII rendering for decades, and this seems like it has less options an…

Considering YouTube's current level of detection of absolutely anything, this will likely be an absolute disaster with no way of appealing to a real human.

Alexa+ has been a massive downgrade for me. It's extremely laggy and constantly misunderstands me, whereas the old one never did. "Set a timer for 20 minutes" used to be instant an…

Every time I'm reminded of this article about package managers. https://www.gingerbill.org/article/2025/09/08/package-manage...

Just because I've dealt with this exact issue in the past, it may have been a 30fps vs 29.97fps issue. For me the audio was a fixed length, but the frame rate was SLIGHTLY too fast…

Check your local library, a lot of them have one and can help you get started. It's usually pennies to print too. I printed an adapter for my coffee grinder at my local library a f…

When I worked there many decades ago, I had pressure and saw people get rewards for patenting everything you could. Seems like things haven't changed.

About 10 years ago I was working on a net-new COBOL compiler for z/OS. There was a huge demand from banks especially for this.

The last time they "innovated" on macbooks we got a touch bar (ignoring M chips). I'm good with incremental improvements if we can avoid those gigantic blunders.

I have a keyboardio Model 100 and it does have symbols on it. Available in mac, windows, and blank iirc.

I've got the same problem with a hyphenated name, and it was always the way they phrased the error messages that annoyed me. Porter Airline's error message for the longest time was…

I love seeing the codegen output, makes it easy to understand the issue, but claiming that it's faster or slower without actual benchmarks is a bit disappointing.

What happens when Linus retires (or god forbid dies)? He can't defuse those situations forever, there needs to be some sort of process.

Hotline was an amazing experience when I was younger. Really taught me a lot about devops and about ISPs.

You can use Whatsapp on the web, but you can't create an account on the web.

I remember briefly calling it DHTML. But that was ages ago.

Any useful AI I've seen isn't branded as "AI", it's just a product that doesn't mention how it works.

Sometimes there's no choice. If it's between beans and rice or nothing at all, then it's going to be beans and rice. Soup kitchens, school lunches, etc are a great help too.
