You REALLY should remove the tracking codes from Youtube links now.

They started showing a popup about who sent the link and offering a (maybe new) DM feature, potentially revealing your personal account name to anyone who opens the link.

I cannot conceive of the courage it took for a Black person to take the Oath, put on Army blue, shoulder a musket, and march South.

The cafe menu is good. I had a falafel salad with green goddess dressing that was quite tasty and I tried some of Andrea's croissant which was also quite nice.

I am jealous that the NE Regional trains just got buttercakes on their cafe menu but it's not available on Acela. I've wanted to try one of those!

Providence ➡️ NYC on a new Alstom Avelia trainset.

The seats are not as bad as the foamers online would have you believe! Are they great? No. They are simply okay. Better than coach seating on an airplane that's for sure!

When I played the pokemans, I didn't give my pokemen any "medicine". they didn't need "medicine" when they were hurt. I just fed them a nonstop stream of canned lemonade until they got type-2 diabetes

if u don't like them u can detach them from corporeal form into a stream of bits, throw them on some guy's computer, and just let them bitrot forever

bizarrely opinionated tooling aside, it looks like zig might have just enough rope to do a HOT vaguely properly. for amd64, anyway.

At one point @haskal said "it's cool that you have one purely ADHD cat and one purely autistic cat" and this is true, that is the best way to describe them

I love how every cat I have ever gotten to know has such an absolutely distinct personality

I don't know why people are always so quick to dismiss animal intelligence as "they're just doing it for food." Like so WHAT so are YOU if you want to be that reductive about it. Why is it hard to acknowledge that an animal that we know can learn to associate speech sounds with meaning and can smell orders of magnitude better than we can would be able to tell different train lines apart and recognize stations from their smell? Plenty of people just get on the train without a destination because there are other people on there who might give them things. Who cares why they go around on the train, its enough that they do.

Everyone is just cheering on this dog who is on its own and taking the train like everyone else. It got off one train, went up the stairs, and got on another. It knows what its doing. You could not interfere with this process, it would be villainous

you can put this at the top of every file and just format it by hand.

but this sort of thing is very offputting.

Yet another really well written critical text regarding #LLM and #GenAI was just submitted as a GDC to the #Guix project. This is something we should be keeping an eye on in #Debian as well. https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2026-05/msg00164.html @civodul

okay, well i don't really want to go download or build a prerelease compiler to do my first zig code, so i'll go back to familiar territory - height optimized tries.

trust me when i say this is a trial by fire of a language.
