coding stuff 

someone on another instance reminded me of an experimental graphics library for haskell, and now I want to make a 3d thing

@unascribed I was worried because I saw a post where someone was like "wasn't there an announcement that monsterpit was being shutdown", and then I immediately lost access

@hal@slime.global that's why I locked my follows - too many boring tech people who never cared about me as a person.

idk why they followed me, given I usually post silly nonsense instead of tech stuff...

wait shoot, did something happen with monsterpit?

...I didn't get a chance to backup my account there, if it did...

@puppy@sleeping.town it's because regex was designed by programmers, where the notion of "a word" is a bit less useful

(although as a linguist I could easily go on a rant about how the idea of "a word" is actually.... really complex and weird)

@puppy@sleeping.town no, regex never matches against whole words - if you want it to match against whole words you need to put spaces around the word you're matching
