lmao look at how they swim (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsesh...)

illustration of a horseshoe crab swimming. it is uh not what you would expect. ok imagine a horseshoe crab (tan shell, it's got a long scary pointy tail that isn't actually scary, it has five pairs of legs with tiny pinchers on the end, and its main body is split into a rounded front carapace with a second segment in back). ok on the ground they sort of roomba about, legs downwise, normal creature behavior. now take that and rotate it 150 degrees clockwise about the z axis (it starts facing left). its little legs are now skyways, for some reason? and it's on that 30 degree angle still? ridiculous

here are some I saw the other day

some granite Objects that look like they're from a raytracer csg demo. on a wood table are four uh slightly deflated diamonds, like two square pyramids stacked back to back, where the vertices are points holding up fabric that's sucked a little inward. closer is a lighter granite toroid with no hole, like a squished sphere

discovered this creature on a freezable leg sleeve

white outline symbolic representation of a polar bear that has a little snout at the front but is otherwise a square that is curling up at the back. the word "The" is visible to the right in large sans serif lettering. this is all on a black leg sleeve pictured on a white countertop.

@qagggy.bsky.social these little guys look like dinosaurs holding up score cards

pike place market (corner of stewart and pike). three green portable bollards are on the brick street. they sort of have snouts and tails and little claws feet. the one in the foreground looks like it's holding up an orange and white striped sign, and it even has a day-glo yellow traffic cone tail spike.

babby's first (well in like 8 years) soldering job (built davidjusto.com/articles/m2p...)

arduino on a wood desk to a tiny display and a far-off light sensor with wires of various colors. the display is on despite the author's shit soldering job (not pictured is the slightly singed keyswitch)

real languages should have good diagnostics here is the deeply unserious way I am treating this very important problem

code that throws up its hands if constraint solving fails and just says no, or a slightly longer no

recoil in horror at the ti-99/4a: oldcomputers.net/ti994a.html

A ti-99/4a fully expanded; it's a 1980s style keyboard/computer unit, but the real trick is how it's expanded: various modules, most of them the size of a textbook and plain silver on top with black surrounds, are daisy-chained together by placing them adjacent to one another on the desk (implied but not shown are the bus connectors toward the backs of the units). There's a smaller EBTPOS-sized module (that's the speech synthesizer I think); one of the silver books has an acoustic coupler on top; another has a thermal printer; and at the end of the chain are two floppy drives stacked vertically. All in all the fully expanded computer looks like it is at least 1.5m long if not longer.

the actual check is completely uninteresting

$Var* ind = NewVar(ctx.int_sort()); Node* cond = NewNode(std::nullopt); Node* done = NewNode(std::nullopt); Node* incr = NewNode(std::nullopt); node->OutCondAssign(cond, std::nullopt, z3::mk_and(range_ok), {{ind, ctx.int_val(0)}}); cond->OutCondAssign(done, incr, ind->in == len, {}); incr->OutCondAssign(cond, assumed ? std::nullopt : std::make_optional(exit), GetHeap()->GetIsInit(base + ofs + 1 + ind->in), {{ind, ind->in + 1}}); return done;$

took the day off to do some errands so I had some time this afternoon. wanted to do something different so I wrote some docs, and also the compiler has a mascot now

somewhat representational sketch of a dubious possum giving a thumbs up
