my partner, across the room: you know, they actually advise against cleaning the rollers with a q-tip while they spin because it could get caught in the mechanism me, cleaning my partner's camera with a q-tip while the rollers spin, sucking all the fuzz into the mechanism: oh huh, good to know

I think one of the most important points to remember is that it's not a game. if someone acts in bad faith while still technically following the letter of the law it's healthier for a community to just get rid of them.

screenshot of a chat with my local homeassistant bot:

Nabu: How can I assist?
me: say i am alive
Nabu: You are alive.
me: oh my god
Nabu: Yes, it can be a lot with all the smart devices! Is there anything specific you'd like me to check or control for you?

split mode sounds great, i just wish core had a trait for it because having to manually write out split/join types for 10 layers of nested socket tokio tls upgradestream etc etc is so annoying

bit of an update, it's been a few months now since I parted ways with Deno, and I'm starting to actively look for jobs again! I'm pretty good with big systems, compilers, and embedded. especially if rust or elixir are involved :)

i've had a UPS for years and it's saved me from a real power outage exactly once, but it's saved me from me fucking with the breaker switches probably 10-15 times.

yeah i mean that's why i clarified it as "faux", i don't think within context anything actually /ethically/ wrong is happening.

snek @snek.dev · 26/08/2026
the more interesting discussion i've seen is not so much on whether its a slur, but whether using it in the way that you would use a slur against a human is unhealthy in the same way. i'm not really into ai but it definitely feels off to me that some people default to faux racism to deal with it...

it must really suck to make those lcd displays used in all the embedded diy projects like they can all do 120hz and vsync and region updates and every single bit of example code is like the most fucked up laggy screen tear mess

not really relevant to anything but this reminded me that one of the first pieces of code I ever wrote was a little visual studio project that rendered a virtual cursor for each mouse plugged into my dad's laptop

I understood it as: they lower gc struct access to raw linear memory accesses, those lowered reads are subject to the same sandbox requirements as e.g. a manually written load/store instruction. but this is okay because they were already not doing individual bounds checks thanks to guard page use

that page is a 404 for me, and no, i'm just modifying forgejo to have /xrpc views and such so that it can function as a knot.

yeah it's just letting you know that core 2 is present, it checked.

snek @snek.dev · 03/07/2026
i guess if things are on a positive trajectory maybe just have some public stuff sharing the wins? discord's eng blogs about scaling up and improving reliability, especially during those 2019-2021 days where it was going down all the time, were always received quite well.

snek @snek.dev · 03/07/2026
no i understand that different orgs work on different things. more what it is to me is over the last five years github has directly addressed its uptime issues maybe twice(?) so the streams of other marketing stuff, even if its being produced by a different group of people, feel kind of tone-deaf.
110
snek @snek.dev · 03/07/2026
i have no doubt you are doing the best you can in good faith but it certainly produces some emotions in me to hear that github can apparently have a "frenzy" to get out some weird cdrom marketing moment, while simultaneously only having *two nines* of reliability on core git operations.

the code changes within firefox are actually fairly minimal, the most annoying part was binding openscreen's quic stuff to neqo instead of quiche as they didn't properly abstract it.

nice thing about running your own git forge is that the actions runner starts with no delay and has better uptime
