Finally sleeping better 😴
I have a very light sleep. The first brightness in the morning makes me wake up, noise from the neighbors in the evening does not let me fall asleep. No matter how late or early I go to bed, no matter how little I slept in total. ⌘ Read more
** A quick and dirty intro to the .pbm file format **
I’ve been fiddling with writing programs that draw pictures. I started with PostScript for this, but have since moved to writing programs that output in the .pbm format.
My goal here is to write noise to a .pbm file.
A .pbm file is the lowest common denominator among image file formats.
An example of the format,

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com You might not want to .. like the other tiktok it is rather pointless noise. Especially because its set to my personal timezone.
My neighbors always seem to be playing Forza Horizon 5 in the evenings the last few days, loud engine noises from the apartment below. 😂 ⌘ Read more

Awesome! Hope he will reply as fast as he did with me. And yes about the noise and length. Not an issue on jenny, or my own pod (I have it set to 2048, I think), but yes, ephemeral is right.
I think it is long due dropping Facebook (now Meta) from the S&P 500 index funds. As an owner of some, I really have a problem with it—and yes, I know there is little I can do but voice it everywhere I make noise online.
We should be able to remove those subject hashtags, they’re just noise.
Yes! I would say they are not even needed on the web UI. You click conversations, and that’s done by Yarn. No need for humans to see it.
new algo in #sndkit @!(sndkitref “sparse”)!@ is a sparse noise generator, similar to velvet noise, that produces a random series of impulses at a specified rate in Hz.

thinking about implementing some noise generators for !sndkit. A chaos noise generator that leverages numerical instabilities in IEEE floating point, and a 1-bit linear feedback shift register noise generator based on NES audio. #sndkit #halfbakedideas #dsp
An NES-inspired noise source. Basically, 1-bit noise using a linear-feedback shift register algorithm, as defined in the NES specs. #halfbakedideas
Band name of the day: noise pollution
Trendism is the idea that, in Dellio’s White Noise, when people photograph the Most Photographed Barn In America, they are not acting absurdly but creating net value for society.

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net @kas@enotty.dk #twtxt’s quietness is actually something I enjoy about it. I care a lot more about signal-to-noise ratio than I care about the regular activity. It’s also a really fun thing to write clients for to play around with new libraries or languages.
