"Where will the von Neumanns, the Einsteins, and the Gödels of our age migrate after the SCOTUS overrules democracy in 2024 and Gödel’s Loophole is proven to exist? (…) Maybe this is the chance of a lifetime for the European continent; if not for all, at least for some countries therein: Portugal, Scandinavia, The Netherlands, and Switzerland, for example."

Two years ago at #CSUN I learned about what became my favorite browser extension, BeeLine Reader. I've been a subscriber ever since.
It's easy to set up on desktop, but has been some struggle to get working on Android. But this week I discovered it works with Microsoft's Edge Canary mobile browser, which has experimental support for extensions. Instructions are here:

On the same day I signed an initial IEP plan, I find out the US Dept of Education has cut half its staff.
Fuck POTUS47 and anyone that voted for him. And fuck any #ProgressivesForTrump that didn't have the maturity to vote for a better future. There's a million ways we will suffer for your single-minded refusal to see the future. You think people will "try harder&quo…

"My view of professional software engineering is one where I get to find out about people’s work and the problems they have, and try to solve them, and discussions are key to this project. If what I wanted to do were to have some uninterrupted time to discover how to shovel a Haskell into a BEAM on Kubernetes so I could scalable actor lambda, then yes, I could understand why understanding what the deliverables are would get in the way."

Can the ai components (NPU) of new processors be used for non-ai work?
What I'm thinking is along the lines that the vector-processing components of GPUs have also been used to speed up non-graphic mathematics on large arrays.

"Go is a triumph in developer experience and efficiency, a language and a runtime created by very experienced designers built to solve a particular problem in a lightweight manner. Just like PostgreSQL and Git, some technologies survive Darwinian evolutionary cataclysms and rise to the top of their craft. Without any doubt, Go belongs to this select group, and if somewhat naïvely we take the past 15 years as a proof, its future looks definitely bright."

"In this particular case, it is not uncommon for software developers to not only ignore, but even dismiss the required understanding of design language and primitives. At the same time, designers often lack the knowledge required to understand the various constraints imposed by software and hardware platforms."

"Simultaneously to Steve Jobs’s introduction of the iPhone in January 2007, Google started publishing a series of blog posts called “Testing on the Toilet”. On May 15th, 2008, this series featured a famous issue: “TotT: Using Dependancy Injection to Avoid Singletons.” The writing was literally on the wall of toilets worldwide: Singletons are bad™®©. Sadly, the much more exciting idea of dependency injection contained in the article got lost in the minds of most readers."
