Rust is the TypeScript of Python.

I've read articles about the best uses for vegimite... but what about the worst?

Air conditioner means there must also be Earth shampoo.

twelve years ago, a painter by the name of anders ramsell painted 12,597 aquarelle paintings of blade runner, shot by shot, of the entire film edited down to ~35 minutes. it took two years of painstaking work, all done in his spare time after work each night.

the video circled around the web for a few years, and quietly disappeared from every single site it was hosted at.

a few months ago i spent a few hours digging for it, and finally found a copy of the original file.

i'm not sure how long it will last over at IA, so enjoy it while you can. it is a true achievement. 🙏

If your application forces me to either utilize a feature I don’t want to use, or to look at a perpetual notification badge, your application is discriminatory and inaccessible. Period.

uncomfortable truth: Elon Musk isn’t an edge case.

he’s the worm-ridden produce of a rotting orchard, fertilized by a pervasive belief among the tech elite that they're above the rules that govern the rest of us, that the pixie dust swirling around their "innovations" means they can treat legislators like pests, competitors like roadkill, and users like livestock - just interchangeable resource nodes to be prodded, milked and slaughtered.

omg the'ir just like me

Excerpt from the blog post “Falsehoods programmers believe about True Names”:

* All True Names can be represented in UTF-8

* All True Names can be represented in UTF-16

* Identical twins share the same True Name

* True Names can be safely stored in databases using encryption

* True Names can be safely stored in databases

* True Names can be safely stored

* A bcrypt hash of a True Name cannot be used to construct an effective pain effigy (often incorrectly known as a “voodoo doll”)
