My plan is to move away from the big languages and start using more off-the-beaten path languages. So Erlang/Elixir/Gleam, Odin is on my list, Elm, Zig I've been doing already a little.
I'm already boycotting Ruby and Python for many years for other than recent reasons. My doubts about Rust remain, let's see how things unfold.
I'm also planning on a "classics" project again - this time with Cobol and possibly Ada.

RE: mastodon.social/@grheavyroller

@pluralisticCory Doctorow summing up my thoughts on where the current conversation is leading us towards:

I'm sorry. I know that when we talk about "digital sovereignty," we're obliged to talk about how we can build more data-centres that we can fill up with money-losing chips from American silicon monopolists in the hopes of destroying as many jobs as possible while blowing through our clean energy goals and enshittifying as much of our potable water as possible.

I don't have any advice for how to do that. I'm sorry!

I remember mentioning this book [1] on Twitter or G+, maybe 10 years ago. I found it used somewhere. I think I was soliciting recommendations for books like it by which I meant short readable self-contained accounts of some subject, not necessarily completely rigorous, with exercises *and* solutions.

Anyway, 10 years later I realise this was a really good book to read. I think it gave me the beginnings of good intuition about SDEs [2] and I couldn't have guessed then how useful that would be today.

[1] "An Introduction to Stochastic Processes in Physics" by Don S Lemons
[2] SDE = Stochastic Differential Equation

야후의 무친판단은 여기서 끝이 아닙니다. 마소는 자신들의 msn서치 라이브 서치를 사람들이 극혐하는걸알고 야후라는 검색엔진을 살려고합니다. 19달러였던 야후의 주가에 62퍼나 되는 프리미엄을 붙여 주당 31달러. 446억달러라는 무친 파격적인 인수제안을 하는데 야후는 제정신이 아니라 우리는 단순한 검색엔진이아니라 뉴스 스포츠 금융등 다양한 정보를 포털형태로 제공하는게 메인인 멀티 미디어 콘텐츠 기업이라며 주당 37달러 까지 올려부릅니다. 마소는 주당 33달러까지 제시했지만 야후가 제안을 걷어차면서 야후의 주가는 폭락합니다.

아이일 때 충분한 보호를 받지 못했다는 걸 느끼며 자란 어른은
자기 자녀에게 과보호를 할 수밖에 없다.
왜냐면 그게 본인한텐 좋은 방침이었거든.

근데 그게 또 자녀에겐 그러면 독이 된다는 걸 경험해 본 적이 없으니 선을 넘고 만다.

루서를 잡을때 중요한것?

장비체크? 이건 어떤 퀘스트를 하든 마찬가지다.
음성채팅? 사실 있으면 좋다, 요즘은 노라도 7분컷이 나온다.
가장 중요한것은 긴급퀘스트 시작하기 전에 로비액션 '전지'를 시전하는 것이다 ​:zenchi:​

“Wait, no, don’t resize it just move it!”
“Why are you tiling the windows?? Move all windows to their original position.”
“No, not the position at boot! Move all windows to their position 3 minutes ago. Then move the window that was in the foreground at that time to the left edge of the screen, 100px lower than its current vertical position.”
“Yessss!! I did it !! This is so productive!!!”

Hey, I survived a surgery today which included 3 operations. Very happy :) The surgeon had some worries, but the best case happened. And everyone was nice at the hospital.

Nurses were giving me treats as I was practicing my Dutch every time they approach, which made them smile 😊

Next few days will be about recovery, but what a nice start for the year health-wise :)

앰네스티가 히틀러나 차우셰스쿠에 대해서도 사형구형을 반대했을까? 저 논평이 한국지부에서 나온것도 아니니 오리엔탈리즘적 시선인게 보여서 대단히 불쾌하다.

RE: mastodon.bsd.cafe/@stefano/115

UPDATE: I just had a talk with two of the owners (whom I've known for years) and one of the young developers who was on yesterday's call. She confirmed that this manager's behavior was unmanageable. High-strung and narcissistic, he had apparently been let go from his previous company due to his inability to work with colleagues and owners alike. It seems he was even trying to boss the owners around.

To make a long story short, the entire sysadmin team threatened to quit if I stopped collaborating with the company. As a result, the owners summoned the manager in the late morning, and he resigned. They are reverting to the previous management structure (led by one of the owners). They might drop a few projects, but they said they prefer returning to a more "human" way of running the business - which is what always set them apart in the past.

I told them I'll think about it. If things are truly as they say (and I have no reason to doubt them yet), I'll propose a 6-month trial collaboration to see how things actually evolve. I'm aware it's easy to "pass the buck" - was it really just the manager's fault, or are the owners using him as a scapegoat now that things went south? However, given our history, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt for now.

@pluralisticCory Doctorow for the win: "All I've got is an idea for how we can make *insanely profitable products* that people *really want to buy*, that will insulate us from cyberattacks by US tech giants who are in thrall to Trump, and that *Americans* will pay us to use in order to free themselves from the tech giants who abuse them, too."

Unlike in Australia, voting on the Fediverse is not mandatory. If you don't understand the question, you're free to sit this one out. I'll have another poll up in a few hours, I promise!

Poll FAQ

I do a lot of polls on my account at Mastodon. I get the same questions or requests multiple times, so I made this FAQ to make it easier to reply. Q: Why do you do so many polls? A: I like to think…

I Hate GitHub Actions with Passion

I Hate Github Actions with Passion

I can’t overstate how much I hate GitHub Actions. I don’t even remember hating any other piece of technology I used. Sure, I still make fun of PHP that I remember from times of PHP41, but even then I didn’t hate it. Merely I found it subpar technology to other emerging at the time (like Ruby on Rails or Django). And yet I hate GitHub Actions. With Passion2. Road to Hell Day before writing these words I was implementing build.rs for my tmplr project. To save you a click - it is a file/project scaffold tool with human readable (and craftable) template files. I (personally) use it very often, given how easy it is to craft new templates, by hand or with aid of the tool, so check it out if you need a similar tool.
