I enthusiastically support this company that claims to be making a real life version of the monster that chases you around the level in any of those janky-ass Playstation 1 lookin' indie horror games.
Snap! Just learned about this new #JavaScript feature called `using` that lets you dispose of resources after you exit a block. Good alternative for needing a `try - finally` expression. Feels like Python in a good way.

I increasingly resent the term 'social media', because what people call social media now is rarely social media in any meaningful sense.
Like, the Fediverse and to a lesser extent Bluesky still IS social media. You follow people you want to follow, and you interact with them, and a lot of the time they interact back. You make online friends. You forge community..
