@tonyarnold "quite different" is polite. There are some overloads there that basically kill type inference for me.

"Almost a third of generation Z men and boys think a wife should obey her husband, according to a global survey of 23,000 people that found young men hold more traditional views about gender roles than older generations.
A third (33%) of gen Z males also said a husband should have the final word on important decisions, according to the 29-country survey, which included Great Britain, the US, Brazil, Australia and India."

Tongue!!!!! #caturday Cats #catsofMastodon

I have #aphantasia so I can’t visualize my cat, who I miss, but I can ‘feel’ the missing weight of her 15 pounds on my chest, and I still expect to be screamed at every morning when I open my eyes.
Still technically #caturday, so let me introduce Freya.
You will see much of her over the next decade or so.
At 10 weeks old she has the kind of whiskers, ear hair, and wayward eyebrows I - a man in his late 40s - can only dream of.

Thinking about making my SwiftUI code cross platform, beyond Apple.
I don’t really want SwiftUI on every platform and dealing with the impedance mismatch of SwiftUI and the host - despite having a few OSS engines that do it.
What I have come to realize is that using SwiftUI @Observables is all you need: swap the actual front end for a tightly coupled UI to the host platform, but keep your logic shared.
And you can have an LLM do the heavy lifting for you.

0x00"I've been re-reading _The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy_ by Douglas Adams, and he seems even more prescient now than he did when I first read the books 20 years ago. More on that some other time. Anyway, in the copy I was reading from, _The Restaurant at the End of the Universe_ has a preface by Terry Jones (of Monty Python), who in passing says:
> Nobody, I suspect, reads the Hitchhiker books for their plot. Not many, I would suppose, read them for their characters (apart from Marvin). So why is it that we love these books so much? After all, if a novel doesn't have great characters or a compelling plot, why bother reading it?
And the next book has a preface by Simon Brett (the producer of the very first radio pilot) who (coincidentally?) says something very similar:
> _Life, the Universe and Everything_is the book in which Douglas gets closest to actually having a plot. But as he would readily admit, he wasn't really good at plots, and it isn't a very good plot. That couldn't matter less, though. You don't read Douglas Adams for his plots any more than you read Raymond Chandler for his. You read both authors for their language and the imaginative world that they create.
I've been returning to this thought quite a few times for some reason, and I'm still not sure what I think. Maybe I need a list of some other authors that one reads not for their plots or their characters.

me when i spend twenty minutes writing an optimised version of a function only to discover that my """optimisations""" have created a 45% slowdown
(aside: this was my first time tracing something with shading. it's still tracing, of course, but now i know how to do basic shading. all my drawings (digital paintings? ePaintings?) until now have been flat colours, save for textured clothes and hair, so that's a pretty decent improvement! oh, and here's the reference image)

A great (and long) treatise of the topic.
tl;dr: capitalists gonna capitalist.
holy shit. Tech Tangents stuck a CAV LaserDisc below a microscope, and with a very specific angle of light, actually managed to see video frames in the refraction. this is nuts
Don't shun people just because they have different beliefs about blotting out the sun to usher in a new age of eternal darkness. We have to find an answer in the middle.
When you write people off simply because they are actively working to make the entire planet a frozen apocalyptic wasteland, it actually is you who are blotting out the sun—the sun of free discourse.

Two neurodivergents in a room trying to figure out WHAT IS MAKING THAT HIGH PITCHED NOISE
This blog post recently crossed my timeline. https://blogs.gentoo.org/mgorny/2026/03/07/money-isnt-going-to-solve-the-burnout-problem/ It talks about burnout among FOSS maintainers, which is an important subject.
It saddens me, though, that the author called out Rust alongside generative AI as a contributor to their own burnout as a distro maintainer, going back to the Python cryptography package's adoption of Rust in 2021. Is there anything that we who use and promote Rust can do about this, or is Rust just too at odds with the norms of Linux distros?
