    Speak for yourself. I've been feeling pretty empty lately.

    That was supposed to be a joke!? I don't think Hans Reiser got that it was a joke either.

    Okay, I heard wrong. It turns out it was Zoom that acquired Keybase. I think Zork acquired some other company. You don't have to down vote me over it. Everybody makes mistakes.

    This article rings very true to me. I once gave away a donut I had bought to a friend. I've regretted that mistake for almost 70 years now. Just think, I could be eating that donut…

    Although like many I probably would prefer a traditional cursor, I appreciate that people are exploring the possibilities of the space. I hate change for its own sake. But there ar…

    I know these consent warnings are generally considered an annoyance, as well as dangerous due to consent fatigue. Not to mention the little hacks I've seen POCs of where clicking t…

    This was interesting enough that I subscribed to Smithsonian Magazine. Thanks for the recommendation!

    I would have expected a post Morton for a salt incident.

    I once worked at a place where a minor piece of cloud infra got exploited. All the attacker did was run a monero miner on it.

    Well, that was mildly annoying. I finally got through and it threw up a bunch of nonsensical alert boxes and then redirected me to a rickroll.

    The performance on my phone makes me sad. PixiJS can barely hit 30 fps and the others do worse than that. FWIW, I have a Pixel 2 phone and I'm using Firefox.

    I think I sussed out the secret sauce from that Benq website. They're using the experimental getCoalescedEvents [1] function to uncollapse the mouse events! [1] https://developer.m…

    I did a little research into this. This website [1] mentions something I'd never heard of before. That some browsers "collapse" real mouse events into fewer "fake" events that tie …

    I love this, but it suffers from an issue I've observed in my own attempts to make mouse-based drawing tools in the browser with JavaScript. If you move your mouse too quickly, the…

    This is fantastic! I love it! I only wish there was a website that helped me to locate hot reloadable structs in my area.

    A prerequisite of having scruples is being human. The jury is still out on whether Mark Zuckerberg qualifies.

    As I read this, all I could think of was Facebook circa 2009 and Farmville. Be very careful what you wish for.

    As long as a language can still run, it's not dead. It might just be napping. Anecdote: when I saw that Python 2.x was reaching end of support, the contrarian in me thought, "final…
