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.
It's amazing how much TC39 managed to shove into ES6 back in the day
Does anyone even use Object.freeze anymore? I feellike the immutable data structure trend was really short lived in JS
The problem with new doc martins is that instead of breaking in, they just break.
I like how minimal and fast https://pi.dev is and it mostly plays nice with my local models. It's absolutely not screen reader friendly and their streaming rendering approach means each sentence gets repeated over and over again with each added word. 💀

Working for large corporations erodes your future prospects as a worker because it makes it easier for a few giants to collude to reduce the average salary with coordinated mass layoffs. This is why there's so many white collar jobs being destroyed, not because "ai" is going to replace them all.
Can't wait to play antichamber in a few decades so I can experience it like it was new again.
wtb: orb of eternal suffering
Infinite flesh glitch.
Major rewrite number 4 on this feature I've been several months overtime on. 😭
Step one for my audio-only setup is done. I can have audio (and speech-dispatcher) running without a graphical session. Next I'll either keep banging my head trying to get these TTY screen readers to work or make my own one.

If the independent, non-slop web has any future at all, then now must be the time for every firefox fork to commit to working together to maintain a hardfork isolated from Mozilla.
It's a project that is too large to be handled by any small project alone (and maybe even all of them combined), but one that is too important to left under the guidance of an organization like Mozilla.
Without such bold co-operation I fear we have already lost.

It is incredibly important to be specific about what properties apply in situations to be able to make the correct trade offs.
An in that respect, VPNs are incapable of providing privacy - under any specific definition of privacy.
They can route around censorship, they can provide security, they can permit jurisdictional and trust flexibility.
But they can only do those things under very specific assumptions which require sharing additional information (albeit changing who gets what data)
Gonna try to make an app to sell which makes it easier to connect to services over p2p. the app will be open source but the default app store versions will have a one time fee.
Made a lil blog post about how I made my #linux #SBC fan a bit less annoying.

Mostly as a reference next time I need to do this. :P
food
These meal replacement things I got have sucralose in them so I can't actually use them 😭
Got like 2x tok/sec with NVFP4 over UD-Q4_K_XL 🤯
I feel like a successful hunter gatherer when I get home with a huge costco haul.
I prefer substance over style
Thinking back to when I made people book video calls with me in mozilla hubs for a few months
