Building a Debugger is now officially released!

It guides you through writing a whole native x64 debugger from scratch, dispelling all the magic and teaching you a ton about operating systems as it goes.

Even if you don't care about writing a debugger, you can read it to your cat.

To me, smoking is something you do on a balcony, porch, or fire escape, with a dear friend. The kind of person you don't need words to communicate with. It's a calming, re-centering activity. A reset button.

Well, apparently my entry was not good enough to be shortlisted by the experts. I'm a bit disappointed, but the competition looks very solid. Maybe my photography just isn't there yet.

Building on what @GeePawHill mentioned yesterday. I don’t think I’ve seen a “riot” with the trailer tractor portable stage driving the mariachi band down Olvera Street.

Don’t let them shift the narrative; don’t let the “anarchists” (armchair or otherwise) or the antagonists make it seem as if the people as a whole are violent. #LosAngeles will be fine.

Did you know it’s not just two journalists who’ve been shot while covering the LA anti-ICE protests?

It’s many more. They appear to be targeting the press. Trying to silence them. Dissuade them from reporting on what is one of the most important issues America is facing.

Does the country want to submit to a fascist authoritarian?

Or do they want to fight back?

LA has chosen to fight back. And journalists are showing up to cover it. As they should.

Adam Rose is keeping a running tally on a thread on Bluesky. Highly recommend checking it out.

here’s some of the injured:

Ryanne Mena, shot with pepper balls

Sean Becker-Carmitchel, hit multiple times

Anthony Cabassa hit in face with chemical munition

Ryanne and Sean were hit again the next day, with a tear gas cannister

No name has been given but reports of someone from KTLA being hit with less lethal ammo and going to urgent care

Lauren Tomasi hit with less lethal ammo

Nick Stern shot with less lethal ammo and requires emergency surgery

These people were clearly identifying themselves as members of the press

They were there to do their jobs

And at least in the case of Lauren Tomasi, there’s video evidence which appears to show an officer taking clear aim and firing directly at her

Say their names.

Speak up.

The public need to know the risks the press are taking just to attempt to bring truth to the masses.

The Regime have been attempting to silence, sue and throttle the press since day one.

We shouldn’t tolerate any direct attacks on them.

Don’t forget why change is so hard to discuss, in city-building, or in anything. Study after study shows we’re actually wired to be “loss averse”— the idea of losing something bothers us twice as much as gaining something equal makes us happy. But there’s loss in being stuck in a costly status quo.

This whole AI thing is like being in a restaurant with a fancy waiter who has one of those giant pepper shakers, only it's full of bird poop and anthrax and he keeps asking "would miss like a little AI on her pasta?" with every dish that comes out... and when you say "NO" he starts grinding anyway and won't stop until you physically knock him over.
