The word "excellent" is derived from the Christian practice of giving up the use of Microsoft Excel for 40 days to commemorate Christ's sacrifice.

It is a period of great productivity.

The date of lent is calculated by using an obscure Excel macro on a field that didn't originally have anything to do with dates, but Excel converted it to one anyway.

just woke up and i've already seen a "releasing games on linux is too hard" take, a "why bother making my website work in firefox" take, and a story about someone filing a CVE that was hallucinated by an LLM.

i'm not really enjoying computers lately

here's a list of the git terms people have mentioned being confused by so far, would love to know which confusing terms I’ve missed! https://gist.github.com/jvns/dfe5a8a7133b3c13b633eab57b70ebb1

wow look what a cool website built by cool people https://netizen.club/

"With more data at hand than theoretical projection, the evidence is overwhelming: Universal #BasicIncome is working nearly universally."

"In city after city and cohort after cohort — old, young, single parents, ex-convicts — universal basic income has improved health outcomes, raised employment, and bolstered childcare opportunities (and recipients have had consistently better outcomes than control groups)."

UBI works. We know that. It will reduce other costs.
