A reminder that the engineer who invented STP also wrote a poem about it:
“Algorhyme” by Radia Perlman:

I think that I shall never see
A graph more lovely than a tree.
A tree whose crucial property
Is loop-free connectivity.
A tree that must be sure to span
So packets can reach every LAN.
First, the root must be selected.
By ID, it is elected.
Least-cost paths from root are traced.
In the tree, these paths are placed.
A mesh is made by folks like me,
Then bridges find a spanning tree.

this post brought to you by a telegraph article making the rounds under emphatic declarations of "see? contrary to what the bigots say trans women actually suck at sports so you might as well let them in!"

hey how about we stop acting like scientific bigotry is rational. how about we stop pretending you can beat an emotional appeal with a double-blind study. either you believe trans people deserve to participate in society as themselves or you don't.

"transgender sportswomen at a disadvantage according to study" cool. they would deserve to play in women's sports even if they had an advantage. sports isn't about biology and neither is transphobia

I'm an abandonware radicalist; not only should abandoned software have its source released, abandoned hardware should be opened up to development to stop it being ewaste.

This is nice.

To read a sign, stand in front of it and press B, like you did just now.

I ran into a bug in a program but logging is off. I'll just enable logging and run it again, surely I'll quickly run into the same bug again, it'll definitely reoccur!

Behold, a fool.

GERMANY HAS PASSED SELF-ID LAWS!

The Federal Republic joins 20 countries which have passed laws allowing people to declare their own legal gender. I hope someday this will apply across the whole EU.

On a more personal level, this means I can finally change my own legal gender to #nonbinary 🎉🏳️‍⚧️

We need to STOP running DOOM on new things
and START putting new things into DOOM.

For example, today I added micro-transactions to the original game. Any time you pick up an item, the game freezes until you make a payment.

This is why I'm more outspoken on the internet than in person.
