You can’t tell people; here is a dial, you can pick ‘fast and you’re screwed later’ or ‘slow and careful now’. You’re setting yourself up for failure; they cannot pick ‘slow and careful’, because that’s not their job; their job is to quickly deliver value/outcomes/whatever.

Writing free software is like painting. You should do it if you feel like it, or if you, yourself, get something out of it. The moment you start to feel that you are owed something is the moment that you should stop doing it, because what you do from then on is probably not going to be any good. Is it even worth working on FOSS anymore? | Hacker News

Gemini seems like a great community to revive the concept of the pen pal. Would anyone be interested in doing that?

»In an apparently non-political case of imitation of Quảng Đức, the young son of an American officer based at the U.S. Embassy in Saigon doused himself with gasoline and set himself on fire. He was seriously burned before the fire was extinguished and later could only offer the explanation that “I wanted to see what it was like.”« lmao

having small “this feels like mdma” type moments during listening to techno & dancing. who knew that ~1000 hours of meditation could have an effect?

Thanks, I’d forgotten about that. I’d rather avoid Google Voice, and I’m okay paying (reasonably). Looking like Twilio might have most of what I want natively.

** What is an addressing mode? **
In a recent post I referenced addressing modes. But what the heck are they!?

The instruction register holds the program instruction that is currently being run.

A fixed number of bits within the instruction register represent the operation, e.g. “op. code” — examples of these instructions include things like add, subtract, load, and store. We can imagine the instruction register like this:

** Chess Rules **
I love when folks say stuff like“there are only a finite number of states a chessboard can occupy, therefore a computer can play chess.”

To the folks who say such things — I wish you to play chess with my 6 year old.

Be not confined by rules! The only things governing chess in this house here are the laws of physics!

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com, I am sure profit—or the search for it—was involved. Most likely that pilot was a Ferengi in disguise. We are known to visit lesser planets seeking to exploit.

Eagle-eyed folks may have noticed that I made a few wee changes to this website.

The biggest, and most noticeable one is that I’ve filtered out all of the like type posts from appearing on the main feed, from rss, and in the archives. There were waaaaay to many, so filtering them out makes the entire website a lot more navigable. They are not gone, though, and I’ll probably keep sharing like type posts, but now they ar … ⌘ Read more

I feel like it took me a bit longer to fully understand how to work in Smalltalk than it did most languages. The IDE is different than anything I’ve used before, and probably anything you’ve seen as well. You’re not going to be opening myscript.st in your favorite text editor, and then run it from the command line as you would a Python program. It takes a little mental adjustment to start with.

Switching to Purelymail
After long consideration, I have now moved email for all but my main domain (but that’s coming too) to Purelymail. Email without bullshit. And with the “Advanced billing mode” they really only charge by usage or $10 with the “Simple billing”, but that shouldn’t be much more than $1 per month for me. What I like most is that there is no unnecessary limit on the number of users, aliases or custom domains. 👍 ⌘ Read more
