Great news everyone thanks to my significant advances in modern algorithmic analysis I am personally able to outperform a warehouse full of specialized GPUs by five orders of magnitude with a single ARM core for one one-millionth the cost in 0.1% of the time by training the "cp" command on only the GCC source and then compiling the output of that program with GCC.

The resulting compiler - which I'm calling "mhoyecc", or as I've taken to calling it, mhoye plus cc, passes 100% of GCC's tests.

This is my favorite sweatshirt. I bought it back in 2016. That last three years I wasn’t able to fit into it. It turns out, that gained weight was bad for my health. Today, I fit into my fav sweatshirt. It’s a small win but I feel good.

Me in a gray sweatshirt and fatigue shorts. I'm giving the peace sign. I'm happy

amateur radio operators the world over use "Q-signs", three letter groupings starting with a Q, to say common things ("QRZ" means "Who is calling me?", for example). these are left over from the days when most traffic was CW ("Morse Code"), with a nice rhythm to the leading Q. these "pro-signs" are also often used in RTTY & other digital modes as well as voice, for the sake of brevity.

NATO also uses a set of "Z-signs", my current favorite of which is:

@mcc Using Twitter as the first time that a lot of people experienced this, I have started pitching this idea as "if a petulant billionaire decides to destroy this project, how much would he need to pay?" Every point of centralization is now a massive vulnerability instead of a cost-cutting necessity, because you don't even need the petulant billionaire.

"Shiny Shiny" by Haysi Fantayzee. I despise it and everything about it and its only saving grace is that it is so obscure in the US I literally have never heard it (involuntarily) this side of 1985. It sounds like dank unwashed hippies smell.

(If for some reason you like it, I'm happy for you and want you to follow your bliss, it was an actual hit in the UK so someone must have liked it, some time in the past. Also, we can never be friends)

A picture of my cats, both sitting on chairs under the kitchen table, with Saja the black kitten up close and in focus, staring directly into the camera, with Smudge, the tux, out of focus in the background, looking off to the side. They look BADASS, y'all.

One of the many gifts we got out of the Epstein files is details of Steve Sinofsky’s exit from Microsoft in 2012. We learn that the Surface RT was selling only 10% of the low-end of their predicted sales numbers, he was being pushed out, and Epstein was coaching him on negotiating an exit package.

He leaked internal Microsoft email threads to Epstein, where they were discussing the $900 million write-off of unsold Surface RTs. He negotiated to exit with $14 million in stock, which we knew about at the time, but it’s absolutely wild to learn who was involved, and the inner workings of it.

Windows 8 is the first product launch I properly remember. I was sick on the day of the Build 2011 keynote, so I stayed home and watched it. I ran all the betas and was excited for how Windows was changing. We were promised a new era with nicely-designed apps and a far better experience for developers, but they utterly flubbed all of it by being so confident in selfish things.

They were so sure the entire 27-year-old Windows ecosystem would magically reconfigure itself around Windows 8-only full-screen apps. They were even more sure they could sell tablets that could ONLY run apps from the Store that didn’t exist yet - or ever. Of course it wasn’t going to work. Why would it?

All of those RT tablets, which other brands also sold, are ewaste now. The Store is shut down, you can’t sideload apps because the licensing server is also gone. They pulled the plug on releasing Windows 10 for them. Without jailbreaking, you can’t do anything other than doodle in Paint or write a document in Word.

It’s maddening that someone can cost the company almost $1 billion on a product ANYONE could have told you wasn’t it. It’s even more maddening they can get a $14 million+ reward for so obviously missing the mark.

Yeah, there’s so much more that’s way more serious out of the files, but this one was relevant to my life. It adds another piece to the story of how I first learned that companies with all the capital in the world will get greedy and let you down.
