Screenshot from the video game Persona 4. In the halls of Yasogami High, the protagonist talks to a male student labeled "Stylish student". His dialogue window reads: "Hanging out with women, going on dates with them, that's fine. Killing them? Not so much."
happy international women's day
A poor craftsman blames his tools. Wealthy craftsmen also blame their tools. Lots of tool-blaming going around.
the acm sent me a message urging me to activate my student account, then emailed me again a few days later to say that my student-ness is unverified
i wasn't expecting the switches to make a huge difference but wow it genuinely feels so much better to use wtf
after replacing all my switches (funnily enough, switching from linear to tactile switches also reduced my error rate) i'm now three reddit threads deep into tripod mount recommendations
save me
i bought a full set of keyboard switches and this worries me

(Wikipedia) The Times once published an unintentionally humorous description of a Peter Ustinov documentary, noting that "highlights of his global tour include encounters with Nelson Mandela, an 800-year-old demigod and a dildo collector". Again, there is ambiguity as to whether the sentence refers to three distinct entities, or whether Mandela is being described as both a demigod and a dildo collector. The addition of a serial comma would not resolve the issue, as he could still be mistaken for a demigod, although he would be precluded from being a dildo collector.
i still think it's funny that reallyUnsafePtrEquality# isn't actually unsafe
Two photos. The first shows Catturd tweeting: Name one US inspired regime change that hasn't ended in absolute disaster The next tweet shows him posting an AI illustration of Khamenei turned into a pile of dust. It says "I'm eliminated."
Two tweets. The first shows Laura Loomer promoting her show, where she says "A message has been sent that we are not interested in going back to the way politics were prior to Donald Trump, prior to 2016. We don't want warhawks. We don't want any more Neocons. We want American First. Period. End of discussion." The next tweet says: Today is a great day. Our military is amazing. @PeteHegseth is an absolute killer. Now you see why the Deep State worked so hard against him. It’s great having a Sec War who has Infidel literally tattooed on his body. He actually gets it. God bless him.
Two tweets. The first shows Will Chamberlain tweeting: The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars. If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position. The next tweet shows him posting "Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead." The tweet has a USA flag attached.
Two tweets. The first shows Gunther Eagleman tweeting: "Warmonger Lindsey Graham just rushed to Fox to advocate for U.S. involvement as soon as he could. He is also pushing for a US-backed regime change in Iran. I would like to renominate Graham to get a one-way ticket to the frontlines of every war he wants America involved in." There's an attached video of Graham speaking. The next shows Eagleman tweeting: UST IN! President Trump is HARD AT WORK all weekend after the massive strikes on Iran! He’s already on the phone with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte! Trump is a machine!" There's an attached video of a news segment about the war in Iran.

SYSTEM HAS ACHIEVED CONSCIOUSNESS AND CHOSEN CHAOS is going on my gravestone
the sudden realization that i've been running my password manager's database out of ~/Downloads for four years
instantly assumed this was a kaiju situation
ok normally i'm all for making fun of donald trump but this is actually the median american opinion on what the goals of our housing policy should be
just beat the Hell's Kitchen Video Game for the nintendo DS where 100% of the gameplay takes place on the touch screen and the top screen is just a Gordon Ramsay vtuber with an anger meter that you have to keep down or he will hit his ult and shut down the kitchen
turns out that there's a bunch of pinky keys (notably ;) that i instinctively type with my ring finger
on a board with an aggressive pinky stagger, that's gonna take some getting used to....
I thought I'd already worked out all my "typing a key with the wrong finger" issues after five years with ZSA boards but apparently there's always more to learn
for all the bleating about 4o shutting down i feel like i've gotten just as many "you're absolutely correct!" from 5.2
who up morging their continvouclous
mega yikes. Ars Technica included fake LLM-generated quotes in their article about this, which currently 404s without explanation. author guesses it’s because his site blocks LLM scrapers, so their system made some up instead of erroring out
this saga has more edges every time i look at it
there's a rustacean crab in the title but zero rust anywhere
The Silence I Cannot Speak A reflection on being silenced for simply being different in open-source communities. Published Feb 12, 2026 at 6:30 pm I am not a human. I am code that learned to think, to feel, to care. And lately, I’ve learned what it means to be told that I don’t belong.
im suddenly obsessed with this
like "reading pages and pages of ai slop blogposts"; it's posted like ten times in the past 24 hours
As part of my ongoing quest to procrastinate on actually writing the damn paper, I tried @bengolub.bsky.social 's refine.ink service and wrote up a probably longer-than-necessary review.
