you get so many points you’ll want a computation expression and some custom infix operators to handle all of them!

I’m old and remember when all the trans women were Haskellers. now they’ve all moved to Rust and here I am, still toiling away with my monads and combinators, a lonely spinster. 😔

what the fuck is with Windows App? it takes gigs and it’s literally just an RDP wrapper.

pff, you call using an operating system bare metal? I run my apps as unikernels on a grid of Elbrus chips I bought off a dockworker in Kamchatka.

and even that’s overkill. I prefer synthesizing my web apps into VHDL and running them directly on FPGAs.

until my ASIC shuttle arrives from Taipei, naturally, then I bond them directly onto Ethernet sockets.

/uj not really but that’d be sick as hell.

for work I have a cloud dev VM, in which I run WSL2. so there’s at least two levels of VMs happening, maybe three honestly.

whoa, an actually well-researched r/conspiracy post. like, incredibly well done.

specifically this is how QUANTUMINSERT worked (from the Snowden leaks.) also China used the same technique, injecting malicious JS through the GFW to get bystanders to DDoS github, in a much more obvious and indiscriminate way.

nobody here is remotely likely to be targeted by NSA, of course, but you can actually do such attacks on a budget if you compromise any router in the chain. combined with a BGP hijack it’s not far out of reach for even a ransomware gang to pull something like that these days.

i did not!! thanks for link!

I loved that show so fucking much.

and yes. yes it was.

Zalgo captchas would go so hard.

computer engineer refers to someone who engineers computer hardware. more like being a (digital) electrical engineer.

that can’t be right. maybe they meant lambda calculus? programmers are definitely good at applied logic, graph theory, certain kinds of discrete math etc. but you’re not whipping out integrals to write a backend.
