Donald Trump is “inventing fraud”
in California’s primary elections,
and likely to ramp up unfounded allegations when more races go against him,
pro-democracy experts have warned.
While the felon-president has used this playbook for years
– from his loss at the Emmys as a reality TV star to his defeat in the 2020 presidential election

What Kent wears, the glasses, the business suit... that's the costume that Superman wears to blend in with us. Clark Kent is how Superman views us. And what are the characteristics of Clark Kent?

Write Tracking for Nim (Part 2)
7 years ago I wrote how Nim would get “write tracking” as an alternative to adding const to Nim’s type system. This year it finally made it into Nim nightly! Since then the feature was reimplemented and all the details how it works did change.

GNU Recutils
Fred and George, Turtles in love There are hundreds of cool command line tools that have been made over the years built on the unix philosophy. Plain text is powerful, ubiquitous, and human-centric. It was also the only option for computing for quite a while. It’s no surprise that some of the most sophisticated tools are focused on it. One such package is GNU Recutils, a set of tools and libraries to access human-editable, plain text databases called recfiles.
