박준규 shared the below article:
洪 民憙 (Hong Minhee) @hongminhee@hackers.pub
This post explores the enduring challenge in software programming of how to pass invisible contextual information, such as loggers or request contexts, through applications without cumbersome explicit parameter passing. It examines various approaches throughout history, including dynamic scoping, aspect-oriented programming (AOP), context variables, monads, and effect systems. Each method offers a unique solution, from the simplicity of dynamic scoping in early Lisp to the modularity of AOP and the type-safe encoding of effects in modern functional programming. The post highlights the trade-offs of each approach, such as the unpredictability of dynamic scoping or the complexity of monad transformers. It also touches on how context variables are used in modern asynchronous and parallel programming, as well as in UI frameworks like React. The author concludes by noting that the art of passing the invisible is an eternal theme in software programming, and this post provides valuable insights into the evolution and future directions of this critical aspect of software architecture.

My Pico Plotter 3D model is now ready for printing. I've added some end-stops so it can auto-home. Need to decide on the filament colour scheme next!

New Alsup decision dropped!
It's... not wonderful, but seems like a pretty reasonable conclusion to draw from shitty laws. It's also a good reminder that at *best* copyright is a tool to protect labor rights, and not in and of itself a thing to be given moral weight.

in other words, if i read the source of rails, and then do something similar in my app, if i need to attribute rails (due to MIT) is based on how similar it actually is.
As Prime Minister, Rutte was known for forgetting things ('I do not have an active memory of that') and for deleting text messages from his phone ('It does not have enough memory').
At least, this one is kept for the history books.
Clearly what Mastodon needs more of is Japanese tongue twisters, so here's one I learned tonight (I say "learned", but I'm not claiming I can say it unaided 😅).
東京特許許可局長
今日急遽休暇許可拒否
(とうきょうとっきょきょかきょくちょう
きょうきゅうきょきゅうかきょかきょひ)
"Tōkyō tokkyo kyoka kyokuchō kyō kyūkyo kyūka kyoka kyohi"
I think (not sure because it's not really a grammatically correct sentence and ambiguous, but I guess that's not the point) it means something like "Head of the Tokyo Patent Approval Office today suddenly denied the vacation approval".
Oops, I think I've gone a bit too deep into the #AI rabbit hole today 😳 (a thread 🧵):
Did you know why AI systems like #AlphaGo or #AlphaZero performed so well?
It was because of their _objective function_:
-1 for loosing, +1 for winning ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just saw this scrolling through Facebook. I don't know anything about the matter, but my point remains valid: using other people's platforms does not and never will guarantee the safety of your data.

@stefanoStefano Marinelli Didn't Meta fairly recently (within the last year or so) classify Linux as some sort of contraband? I don't remember if they had it down as spam, malware or something else, but it was definitely one major online platform classifying discussions about Linux as something like that, and I'm quite sure it was one of Meta's.
Yes. It's your own data. Own your data. Data you own.
When someone asks me what I did today:
Me: Nothing much.
What I did:
Washed, dried and folded whites.
Washed, dried and replaced bed linens.
Rowed an hour and a half. Did mobility work and body weight exercises for another 45 minutes
Made a killer salad for lunch
Swept/mopped the south balcony.
Updated our router.
Made refried beans for tomorrow.
Washed and put away the dishes.
Prepped for tonight's dinner.
De-grimed the shower. Chlorine rinse for the grout.
So. Nothing much. Like every day.

The Japan Tourism Agency confirmed that travel from Hong Kong is down in May, thanks to an old manga that predicted a massive tsunami in Japan on July 5th. However, the panic isn't affecting travel from other Asian countries & Japan is still setting monthly inbound travel records.
Huh. I wonder who that is for?

So, there’s much to be said about these vulnerabilities…

First, thanks to fellow Nix and Lix hackers for sending us a heads-up, for sharing Snyk’s detailed report, and for coordinating with us. 👍
@steipetePeter Steinberger You got me playing with Claude Code on a PHP application and it's such a weird feeling. It's like the dopamine hits of TDD but worse, because there's so much more that happens. I can see how people don't want to go back. And I can see why 
@mergesortJoe Fabisevich 
mentioned he was uneasy. I am too, now. It's great, and weird, at the same time.
Programming language nerd minutia survey! Which is right(er):
Two iconic 1980's mice:

◽Right: Atari STM1
Both have very different external designs, but inside they share a nearly identical PCB and both were manufactured by Mitsumi.

Sporadic reminder to do a #backup of your #Mastodon account (i.e. request an #archive from your instance)!
Even in the Fediverse servers crash and instance admins turn rogue, and all of a sudden you may be left with nothing but the last archive.org snapshot of your account, so... request your archives, folks!

IP is complicated, for example, coke never patented their recipe, because it meant it would have entered public domain eventually, and just kept it a trade secret. choices like these don't necessarily imply wrongdoing
