    I love how during prototyping, the compiler will tell me off for having an unused variable and fail to compile. I totally love the idea of crashing when writing on a closed channel…

    Systemd is not 1 giant thing that does 100000 things - it is a collection or 10000 services doing 10000 things, integrating amongst themselves where practical. You need not use net…

    It gives you a sense of control, for one. I could repurpose existing software to do most of the things I program myself on my own time. Ikea is way cheaper than most things you can…

    There is a dollar amount I am willing to pay to elude suffering- and there is an amount I will not. Try sitting on a floor for weeks and you will see the dollar amount you want to …

    Futures would be less of a problem if async was implemented as effect handling instead of coloring functions - I am truly miffed about e.g. not being to use `or_insert_with` with a…

    Not only that, the charger thing also implies charging it weekly if not more often. I got a pebble watch because I can wear it for 2 weeks without charging. Would hate to have to c…

    Managing a very public project that advertises Zig and doing so poorly is a matter of fact, is it not?

    One might argue that these people will not understand the code they write if they use LLMs. I would counter that with my observation that plenty didn’t understand the code they wro…

    You can run it on an encrypted volume on a VPS. Technically, it is also possible to use confidential VMs, but I have not at all kept up with those developments these days. Confiden…

    Large file uploads are non-resumable. That is, if you have any videos at a decent bitrate and resolution, you need to be able to upload the whole file in a single session. iOS does…
