Telling children they are living in a dying world is an essential evil we don’t really have terminology for. Children cannot fix your sins through shame and abortion of hope. You are the villain in their story, not their savior - peddling nothing actualizing change, only dred.

I've never been keen on the (1999) mindset that subscribed to the "immutable law of security" platitudes that something falling into the wrong hands is instant game over.

eg., "Law #3: If a bad actor has unrestricted physical access to your computer, it's not your computer anymore."

  • that was created to excuse a very flawed OS compared to its (less) flawed competitors

wtf there’s a guy on this conference call whose audio is freezing and each time it sounds like someone pulling a guitar string???

“it’s not a show stopper it’s just sOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM”
Audio transports are so weird.

that's the sound of a flaky, failing hologram generator that projects fake Zoom images to make it look like you are in the meeting.

I don’t think it’s right how programmers appropriate the names of real jobs with impact to people’s lives and consequences when they do something unsafely, like “garbage collector.”

speaking of name appropriation, TS could be the next President of the U.S. Senate (and VP of the United States) if by accident of birth, born just 40 days sooner

The Roman empire fell because their Roman numerals weren't a form of positional notation, so they couldn't figure out binary. Their computers were terrible.

@foone
