19:38: Politiet har vært på stedet etter meldinger om innbrudd på et verksted på privat eiendom. I forbindelse med innbruddet har det blitt skrudd på en pumpe tilhørende en dieseltank. Dette har gjort at det har lekket ut over 2000 ltr diesel som har trukket ned i bakken og rent ned i en bekk/elv. Brannvesenet er varslet og legger ut lenser på stedet. De har også opprettet dialog med kommunen ift forurensingen. Politiet oppretter sak på forholdet.

Thinking about writing a book

Over the years, by haphazardly filling-in missing details to the docs as questions arose, I've let the Uxntal language pages grow into a tangled and overgrown labyrinthine mess that oftener threw folks into opaque dead-ends than answer questions.

This week, a pointedly cutting criticism of the Uxn documentation shook me out of the laissez-faire that I had over these few pages and reminded me how letting it go the way I did was a disservice to others, but especially myself, considering that I may be using this tool, possibly for the rest of my life.

Since I couldn't clearly discern what should and shouldn't be there, I've asked for help, and got excellent ideas. With feedback from both new learners and experienced folks, I rewrote most of the documentation, included new examples, expanded tests and added setup instructions for both Uxn, and Varvara.

Looking at the documentation now, I feel like I would very much like to work on writing a book about it, to have a paperback artifact in the style of Henderson's LispKit Manuals. A treatise on the design and implementation of the system from the bottom up, but also, plastered with drawings.

붓) 그리고 1+1이 3이 되려면 상식 한두개가 틀린게 아닌것처럼 "소박한" 혐오를 하는 사람은 사회와 인권 같은 수많은 개념이 전부 다 망가져 있고 혐오발언은 그 빙산의 일각일 때가 많다. "인간"에 대해 이야기한다고 해놓고 거기에 여성이 들어갈 수 있다는 생각조차 하지 않거나 등등.

Wat een ontroerende, scherpe, en kwetsbare toespraken van Hedy d'Ancona, Mohammed Al Zaanoun, Gloria Wekker en Mustafa Hadziibrahimovic, gisteren tijdens de alternatieve dodenherdenking.

Afgewisseld met prachtige muziek van Cello Octet Amsterdam en Ghaeth Almaghoot, en vergezeld door een hoopgevend gebed door Chautuileo Tranamil en Jan Koning.

Herdenken zonder vlaggen, mét gebarentolk, voor een inclusief 4 Mei.

Kijk hier de livestream terug:

Does this describe some people you know?

"They don't need other people to like and admire them and they are not critical of themselves. They think they have no personality weaknesses so they don't feel the need to compensate for them. They have no unused capacity, they have already turned all of it to their advantage. On the outside they're not disciplined or self-controlled, yet they are never worrisome or insecure on the inside. They never have serious doubts as to whether they have made the right decision or done the right thing. They don't like change or variety and they feel comfortable when hemmed in by restriction and limitations. They don't think of themselves as independent thinkers, they just accept others' statements without any proof. They have no scruples being blatantly frank with others. They are never extroverted, affable, or sociable, neither can they be introverted, wary, or reserved. None of their aspirations are realistic."

I just took the standard Barnum-Forer script and negated it.

How to change a password on a remote system...

On a BSD or Linux system?
SSH into it and use passwd(1), and done. The same command that has worked for decades.

On that Windows system over remote-desktop?
Some instructions will tell you to use control+alt+delete to get to the password-change screen. But that gets intercepted locally. So can't use that.
Other instructions will tell you to use the Accessibility settings to launch an on-screen keyboard with which you can enter the control-alt-delete to get to the password-change screen. But that doesn't seem to work when I just tested it.
As a third option, you can launch PowerShell, type

(New-Object -COM Shell.Application).WindowsSecurity()

and hit Enter. And that works reliably for me.

I'm glad Windows is such a consistent and user-friendly OS. 🙄

"Rust is hard" isn't helpful. I believe many take a harder learning route than necessary.

There are a few ways to flatten the curve: embrace the mental shift, take small steps, build intuition, let the type system guide you, etc.

If you know someone who's struggling, perhaps this post can help.

If you have a valid VAT ID, you can sign up to UpCloud with the promo `eu5000` to get €5000 of free credits that expire in 3 months.

To an individual that might sound like a weird deal, but saying the quiet part out loud, the point of this is to entice small-medium (European?) businesses to use us while they build, then they go "wow UpCloud good, let's stay!" when the credits are used up :blobcat:

If you or someone you know is about to build out an org on the cloud, maybe they'll like this!
