This is the most obvious statement of this millennium but apparently it needs to be repeated for the people in the back:

The government does not give a fuck about you. None of them do. We built a system specifically to not trust the government.

The problem with that system is that we keep allowing said government to find loopholes within it that allow it to make whatever tyrannical rules it fucking wants without repercussions or revolt.

When it doesn't work (EARN IT Act), they just keep trying again (ID verification) and each plot will be attempted for years at a time. The feds are playing a war of attrition and are betting on you being forgetful. The communications decency act, the patriot act, TSA, and everything since then. That time they let Microsoft off the hook because their monopoly was too useful.

Nobody could have predicted 300 years ago that we would invent a system to instantaneously transmit vast amounts of information across tens of thousands of miles, and that it would become the backbone of political stability as it dictates everything people perceive to be real. We are more "aware" of our surroundings than ever,and yet simultaneously the least involved in their evolution than we've ever been.

The ID verification laws. We all knew, but now it's been confirmed: the US and Canadian governments are tying your device fingerprints to your financial and social security records to build a unified profile of your identity online on every major website that has that matching information. They are scanning you against a list of politically relevant people for undisclosed purposes.

This is not something Americans do. This is not what we stand for. Self host your online infrastructure. Encrypt and obfuscate fucking everything. This is the last chance you might ever get.

In the highly unlikely event I strike one too many nerves and alert the nearest glowie: I am mentally sane. I have no desire to kill myself and infact I have a very important purpose in life. I am not planning any surprise vacations. I do not take or distribute drugs, keep illicit material on my computer, or fail to pay my bills. I am a healthy, law abiding citizen, and in the event of my disappearance or death you should be very worried because they will probably come after you too.

I'm not anonymous. Real world violence and detainment is how they take your free speech away. Don't forget it.

Well I need to check out the competition for my livelihood.

I thought I'd see what $2-3 buys me on Codex. I got all of:

* a compiler for a numerical bc-like language with an LLVM back end

* a small test suite (not good enough to catch everything it should have)

* a terminal based IDE for it with separate editor, syntax coloring and output panel - like Compiler Explorer. It'll show the LLVM IR too. Surprised to see it handles things like window resizes without me asking.

* example code including a simple 1D Poisson solver and an MLP trained by backpropagation.

It compiles fast enough, and generates fast enough code, that it has the interactivity of a spreadsheet so I can do things like explore tweaks to that MLP learning rate in "real time".

I tried to add multidimensional arrays. I burnt $3 having it fail - probably because it was writing array indexing code directly for LLVM whereas I would have written that in C and incorporated whatever IR clang generated. It was able to give excuses though.

For a few dollars more I added minor features at which point the total cost of writing N lines of code was probably growing quadratically in N and I called it quits at $9.

A lot more useful than the subject of this story

Oberstes US-Gericht erklärt Zölle von Trump für unrechtmäßig

Trump habe damit seine Kompetenzen überschritten und gegen Bundesrecht verstoßen. Für den US-Präsidenten ist das ein Rüchschlag, die Zölle sind ein zentrales Element seiner Wirtschaftspolitik.

Dobrindt verlängert Grenzkontrollen um weitere sechs Monate

Innenminister Dobrindt hält an den Grenzkontrollen fest. Sie sollen erneut verlängert werden - um weitere sechs Monate. Die Europäische Kommission wurde bereits über den Schritt informiert.

How to stop being boring

The most interesting people I know aren't trying to be interesting. Thank God. They're saying what they actually think and wearing what they actually like, pursuing hobbies that genuinely fascinate them, regardless of whether those hobbies are cool. The most mind-numbingly boring people I know are working overtime to seem

Hey, you, reader:

Ever been browsing someone's blog, website, repo -- even their social web profile -- and thought to yourself "Wow, that's really neat. I love what they did here!"

Consider telling them! Someone on here made a post a while back encouraging people to do just that, and I've tried to make a conscious habit of contacting the authors of neat little indie and smolweb sites.

Email, guestbook, comment; whatever it might be, consider reaching out somehow to share your appreciation. You might be surprised at how much it makes their day.

You might also be surprised to discover how much making their day makes yours, too.

6-3으로 트럼프가 써먹은 방식으로 (IEEPA라는 법에 정의된 emergency power 이용) 관세를 부과 못한다고 판결. 관세 부과 안 됨: 로버츠, 소토마요르, 케이건, 고서치, 배럿, 잭슨 관세 부과 됨(소수): 토머스, 얼리토, 캐버노 구술변론에서 돌아간 방식대로 그대로 라인업이 떴군요. 가장 불확실한 변수가 배럿이었는데, 이미 5명이 회의적임을 비춘 상황이었던지라.
