I feel this so hard. Why can't people just be clear about what they want?

I've rarely felt dumber than trying to explain to the coffee shop, that I stop at daily on my way home from the office, that the DHCP pool on their guest network is perpetually exhausted and patrons only have access to IPv6 enabled sites.

I regret this interaction.

@hikari what's poppin'

for context this is what eJay looks like (specifically the version i have memories of)

it is the most 90's thing imaginable

so when is everyone gonna dig out their old copies of Dance eJay and make that software cool again. because that was the shit

shower thought re. rgb 565 vs. theoretical 555|1 (common least significant bit for each component): it introduces higher "distortion" for darker colors (i.e. the closest encodable to dark purple { 1, 0, 1 }/64 is dark grey { 1, 1, 1 }/64), but our vision loses color sensitivity in low-light conditions anyway, so that probably would have been a better fit

Any experienced programmer worth their salt will tell you that •producing• code — learning syntax, finding examples, combining them, adding behaviors, adding complexity — is the •easy• part of programming.

The hard part: “How can it break? How will it surprise us? How will it change? Does it •really• accomplish our goal? What •is• our goal? Are we all even imagining the same goal? Do we understand each other? Will the next person to work on this understand it? Should we even build this?”

putin is probably kept awake at night by the thought that future history books will call him volodymyr volodymyrovych

i love how the wikipedia page for the guy who ran the ukrainian communist party from 1972–1989 and insisted on using the russian language for everything… refers to him via the ukrainian version of his name
