I think my philosophy when making software is that it should work for people with zero money or no bank account / credit card.

I know it's not a popular mindset to be in since money and profit is everything in the tech world.

I think it comes from growing up as a kid with no disposable income or access to anything but my shitty computer.

I'd rather support people with almost nothing than people with latest and greatest tech gizmos and spare cash for subscription services. 😅

I'm gonna use this yhread as a way to keep track of links to read and like my own posts when I get around to them.

Damn I really need to paint rn but I gotta wait another day or two 🥲

I was born ready. And I haven't been ready since!

Or better yet: Write a lisp macro for parsing WAT to learn both at the same time.

Maybe instead of Lisp I should go back to learning the Webassembly Text Format :P

TIL that I probably physically can't work from offices anymore. 😅

Humans should have a sleep button so I could writhe less

There once was a time where recluses who spent all day reading and philosophizing were considered wise and not just weird and maladaptive. Maybe I was born a thousand years too late.

Found some awesome electronic music in Toronto and it turns out my fave dj of the night is from Ottawa! Hopefully I'll get some more dance nights this winter.

Love seeing humans collaborate. High trust idea sharing and guiding is a superpower.

Canadians in general need to get off US-based corporate social media. And search agents. And cloud storage. And VPNs.
Find a Mastodon instance (for example) based in Canada or elsewhere that reflects their interests; use a EU-based (much tougher security and privacy laws) search agent; consider cloud storage like Sync - based in Canada; and look at where their VPNs are based. Again, the EU (even free level at Proton) a safer bet for that.

There is a solution to the memory shortage. Developers could start writing efficient and optimized code. This may require some re-training.

First off, stop using multi-gig libraries is a start. Modern software is bloated slop, with the exception of some really nice open source programs.

The entire LibreOffice download is 348 MEGABYTES. Microsoft Office is 5.3 GIGABYTES. For WHAT?
