Implemented search for my website (lup) using Perl + FastCGI + SA index. A throwback to the old net. Send me some search traffic, and ideas on what I could improve. I've linked the…

I'm not convinced that we can spend quality time with loved ones outside work while spending most of our time at work pretending, and doing useless or unnatural things. I think wha…

Impressive. The page loaded very quickly for me here in Singapore. Is it still running on the Pixel?

Thanks for the bear blog. Considering how LLM companies don't respect licenses, and if your livelihood depends on it, I'd go a step further and only make the source available upon …

The 2FAs require their mobile app sometimes.

Do you not have to use a 2FA app for things like banking? In Singapore, they are phasing out 2FA options other than the banking app. The banking apps only work on iPhones and Googl…
