Ah, RtlUpcaseUnicodeChar returns WCHAR, so it's clear from the type that it can't work correctly.

SCHEISS, SCHEIẞ, and scheiß all get to coexist on my Windows VM which supposedly has a case-insensitive file system.

You would (should) get different results depending on locale which is just begging for trouble.

Case-insensitive file systems don't make sense in a Unicode world.
Is SCHEISS.txt the same as scheiß.txt?
Is ᴴ.txt the same as ʰ.txt? Those are both lowercase according to Unicode.

Well actually, coffee beans are not beans, but seeds.
What you are referring to as bean juice or bean soup is in fact seed tisane.

It's really windy; it's raining sideways and making a lot of noise. I hope the crooked tree in the yard will make it.

Over this weekend I actually started and finished an entire programming project. It's a little inotify watcher (in #Rust) and a little uploader script (in #Python) which now allow me to directly export pics from #Darktable to #Flickr. I fed up hauling files manually :-)

I'll publish the code and may be write something about it over the week.

The German news showed a stunning satellite photo of La Palma.

Around #LaPalma you can see multiple circles in the cloud field. It looks like the wave you get when a stone in dropped into a pond.

In this case the stone is not falling from above, but the #volcano spewing hot air does it from below.

this is the fourth text editor I've written in Fennel. I spent the least amount of time on it, but it's the most usable. I'm pretty sure the lesson to be learned here is how cheating is awesome and you should always do it?

I was messing about with "lite", a text editor written in about 1000 lines of C and 4000 lines of Lua: I ran my antifennel compiler over it to turn all the Lua into #fennel code to see how it would run. I ended up finding a couple bugs in antifennel, but once I fixed them it ran pretty smoothly with minimal need for changes!

Letting our caughter (cat daughter) go out on her own more often. She's never gone for very long. I set a timer to remember to check the door after 20 minutes, and she's usually there, or comes when I open and call for her. Now she came in all wet from her autumn adventures.
