Writing Too Slowly

axxuy

My last post is not long, but it did end up taking quite a bit longer than I wouldhave liked. Sometimes you just do not have as much time for a project as you expect. In this case it was also hindered by being tied to a programming project, which invited tweaking and contemplation of features,...

Calling everything AI-generated is lazy

Frank DENIS random thoughts.

The new lazy comment’s “AI-generated”. On Hacker News, every thread about a programming language that isn’t Rust eventually gets a Rust comment. It doesn’t matter if the topic’s C, Zig, Go, PHP, Elixir, or a database. Somebody will find a way to turn the discussion into Rust. We now have the...

How Fares the Banana Reclamation?

Ben Goldsworthy

I wrote at the start of the year about my parlous experience with the British tax and student loan authorities, whilst resulted in me being on the hook for several thousands of pounds in the previous tax year. My goal is to reclaim almost every single penny of that… …but the bastards won’t make it...

Ghost in the Shell (1995) [drop_cap]T[/drop_cap]here is this strange affectation that comes with using tiling window managers: EVERYTHING has to be a hotkey. If you don’t wield a gazillion keybinds you are failing in the Way of The Tile. Don’t want to memorize five-finger chord contortions just...

The aromatic little restaurant near Gare du Nord that saved the day

Karen W Yelverton

A feast for the eyes: after a long day, this was just what the doctor ordered Historically, the words vegan and Paris in the same sentence would produce at the very least a wry smile. Beautiful city, stunning bakeries, gorgeous bistros and, so the clichés suggest, approximately zero interest in...

a small way in which birding has changed my life

ardens-asides

At the beginning of the year, I set out to complete a curriculum designed around Birding in my Backyard. As a long-time animal lover, and someone living a relatively sedentary life, I wanted a mindful activity to do outdoors to be more present and unplugged. As mentioned in a previous post, I got...

Kawai Shen Quote

Jacob Wren

. “Despite the suspension of norms in the mosh pit and the lifting of prohibitions on exercising aggression and violence, moshing was never a free-for-all. Like any social endeavour, there were unwritten rules of conduct. Entering a new millennium ushered in by forest fires, warmongering, and a...

Expanding the *recomp ecosystem with GBARecomp

Matthew Stanley

My long term goal is to plant the seed for all legacy systems to have static recompilers – in hopes to blossom various types of ports and extensibility.Gameboy Advance was always an obvious target, and with the recent news of the decompilation of The Minish Cap getting an early PC port, it felt...

v0.8.2 Another bug fixed

Simon Dalvai

Another day, another save game editor bug :-) This time a user reported, that the game crashes after the next match. By sending me his save game file, I was able to discover the bug very fast. Matches with deleted teams and leagues still existed and therefore the game crashed. This was only...

Bats

andrewspittle

An unexpected aspect of life in the countryside: bats. We've had a heatwave the last couple days, which has meant leaving the windows wide open at night. The property's bordered by a stream and forest land, prime habitat for bats. As I sat working in the living room this afternoon I saw what, at...

The Attention Merchants

attention, books, culture, marketing Referenced by Michael when he was visiting us back in May and I picked it up. It happened to fit well with things I’ve already been thinking about such as The Algorithm and whether culture precedes from it or it precedes from culture. Basically, does the...

Deno Desktop

Ankur Sethi

From the Desktop apps section of the Deno documentation: deno desktop turns a Deno project (anything from a single TypeScript file to a Next.js app) into a self-contained desktop application. The output is a redistributable binary that bundles your code, the Deno runtime, and a web rendering...

finally finding focus

alieniloquy

Life has been a little hectic lately. I've been spending most of my time finding someone to take over my apartment, packing, and getting ready for my move back to the Boston area. I'm excited to start my new job, and even more excited to be around my family again. I think I shared a little bit...

5 Lessons at 50

Murat

Looking at my peak male physique, and my Keanu Reeves baby face, you would never suspect it, but I recently turned 50. As is the tradition, I thought about writing a post titled "50 Lessons at 50". Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of wisdom. The thing is, I still feel like I'm 18, same age as...

Extreme Heat and Oily Fascists

Rory

Record-breaking temperatures are expected in England and Wales today, and in France and Spain they’ve been even worse. Social media has noticed the uncanny similarity between a fictional weather forecast for August 2050 from French TV in 2014 and yesterday’s actual forecast, on a day when drowning...

I am still playing a heck of a lot of Guild Wars 2. Last night I spent my evening doing sibling time with Ace, and I feel bad for how not into GW2 they are…. yet I continue to talk about it. I managed to catch Tequatl last night, which always makes me happy. This is, without a doubt, my...

You gotta deal with the boring part first

Arnon Shimoni

Since 2024 the role of the CMO or marketer in a startup has really changed. Mostly, everyone has the same tools so everyone is producing the same slop at the same time. I can no longer remember times that I’ve read content that looks and sounds exactly the same. They organize cool dinners...
