Location - Phoenix. Remote is acceptable. I could consider relocating for the right job. Technologies: C, C++, Rust, Python, Lua, C#, shell, heavy embedded Linux experience, wrote …

Nice. Not as impressive as bash, but got a ncurses clone of breakout/brick attack in C. https://github.com/Subsentient/bricktick

I am delighted to inform CrowdStrike that they have just done additional, extensive, damage to their brand, and will no doubt have just emboldened those who were tempted to sue the…

They will not fix this. Indeed, regulation is required, but meaningful change requires a functioning, coherent government with institutions that are not fully enclosed in regulator…

Write your own. Wrote one fairly recently in good-ole-sepples that uses UNIX domain sockets and pushes around half a gigabyte a second on weak ARM hardware. Domain sockets are grea…

>TypeScript for C++ Visceral disgust reaction.

Rust apparently wants to reverse its warning logic and instead of banning unsafe{} inside unsafe fn(), they want to require it and make it a hard error.

It's true, what intelligence I have (not particularly impressive) has already caused me enormous suffering. Yet, there's this piece inside me that tells me that "the only way out, …

Sometimes, I think about what I really want. What I want most in the universe, for myself. There's plenty I want for everyone else. I seldom let myself think about what would be go…

Watch all the funding dry up and the researcher get framed for some random, stupid crime, with just enough prison time to make sure he won't see the inside of a lab again before he…

Finally, a software fad that I actually want to support! About time I get one! SQLite is more than good enough for an awful lot of things. Most of the time that I do see software u…

This is the type of vibe I go for typically: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAmg7h0ov5o

My personal rule of thumb is that if someone is making gurglings about X possibly happening in the future, I will probably take some steps to make it easier if X does indeed happen…

On every PC I have, the Ukraine "live feed" video at the top manages to start playing on its own as soon as I'm not looking. It doesn't do it at predictable times, but it usually d…

I use Firefox, but apparently CNN can circumvent my autoplay blocking. I'd like to kick up some trouble to punish them for trying to circumvent it at all, and hopefully get Firefox…

As someone who uses both Rust and C++ frequently with a good understanding of both languages, I can say that Rust is for the mostpart more pleasant to work in, but Rust's handicap …

Haskell gives me headaches. I write a lot of Rust, which has elements of both. I think their approach is pretty good, though sometimes regular inheritance would just be easier. I d…

Eh. I just cast both to a bigger integer type where possible, which in practice, is almost always. So if I'm averaging two uint32_ts, I just cast them to uint64_t beforehand. Or in…

Can you still install Linux on the new switches? If so, I might have an interest in one. If not, it's just more walled garden garbage.

The big issue I had with learning Rust is not the simple stuff -- I could write safe Rust fairly quickly. The problem I continue to have is that many internal behaviors of the lang…

Well I have nothing useful to add other than my personal priorities for a job, in order of importance. I'm a whiney little bitch when it comes to this stuff. People/Environment -- …
