Totally agree. This article really turned me off of ever using Zig for a project.

The confusion of democracy with populism seems to be a trend over the past decade. Popularity is not democracy. In fact it’s often best if everyone is a little bit unhappy with wha…

Hotter, with more microplastics and pollution. More extinct species. More counties with nukes. More hungry people. More trillionaires. Less to go around. I hope I’m in the woods an…

Legality doesn’t matter as long as you use open source tools. Buy hardware that you can load your own software or firmware on. Keep backups of the software that you use. Nobody can…

This is ultrasound. You didn’t read the article. It’s perfectly safe.

I’m not sure that there is a consistent definition for matters in this context. What matters is completely subjective to an individual. Furthermore, performance is rarely correlate…

Nobody wants the pile of Schmidt you are selling fam

Warms my heart. Tech executives and politicians need to be put in their place.

I thought I was miserable during the Covid years, but now I’ve started to wax poetic about working from home, not having any obligations, and regularly baking bread with my partner…
