lol, Linkedin web app on mobile sends you back to previous page if you scroll enough then hit the "no I don't want the app" button. I didn't want to use your site anyway!

Americanos are so good I can't believe I've been missing this

So wack that in C++ you dereference a pointer to get a reference instead of &*-ing it. Rust once again most intuitive language

Finishing a game I really didn't enjoy and seeing it has a 91 on metacritic makes me feel like a colossal hater lmao

One of the huge perks of working at a software company is, when there's something about the product that bothers you personally, you can get your hands dirty and find out why it's basically impossible to get fixed

Tell me why my climbing gym is trying to sell TWELVE DOLLAR smoothies no wonder I never see anyone drinking one

I don't have a horse in the baseball fight but listening to the game on the free radio broadcast rules

Gotta say this is king shit from the libxml2 folks who know perfectly well it's used in all kinds of external facing mission critical places

Spent the entire new Frankenstein movie scared the monster was going to come out of the screen and start beating me over the head with the moral of the story

Is the best way to make a bug based fuzzing benchmark really just to go through CVEs and find every issue in the tracker and hope there's a POC 😭

Talk Tomorrow: "Scalable Static Analysis and High-Performance Logic Programming" (github.com/kmicinski/mi...)

me (recently into bouldering): CI: me: CI: ... me: nice, come on CI: ... me: yeah, come on... CI: ... me: CI: ... me: COME ON!! CI: ... CI: ❌ me: ah! good attempt!!

Making my conference slides and formatting code in google slides sucks and the devil on my shoulder is telling me to use beamer but I will NOT

I'm shocked.. thehackernews.com/2025/10/micr...

Yeah, you could say I'm a vibe coder (using claude to suggest synonyms of my traits with different first letters so they can all be abbreviated prettily as generic parameters)

I have a hot take that Result is extremely overused in places where stuff should probably just panic and often ends up obscuring the problem by bubbling up errors too high. Panicking is okay!

Never going to be the same now that I can just buy sashimi grade fish as uwajimaya and get 75% of the restaurant sushi experience for 15% of the price

Oh shit well I'm glad I'm safe from the war over here in Beaverton

Drank a caffeinated coffee this morning after months on decaf and spent a 3 hour drive learning about marine diesel engines and saturation diving procedures

Saw (and unfortunately squished trying to capture) my first giant house spider today, gotta say I am really not a fan of 4" spiders.

This matches my experience: those of us who spent the pre-LLM years building ML models + GANs see genAI in a different light. We have a clearer view of what is/isn't possible, so we're less likely to throw it at every imaginable task expecting a breakthrough. #dataBS www.wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-a...

Anyone know how to specify the priority of a static in the __init_offsets section in a #[link_section = "__TEXT,__init_offsets"] directive? You can do it on Linux with like .init_array.PRIORITY...

Just ordered from rock auto for the first time and holy crap we have to go back, this might be the best website still operating today

It hasn't happened much yet because it seems like the people making MCP slop tools are still in the phase where they tell you that's what it is but eventually we'll get to a point where software that looks normal is just incorrect sometimes unexpectedly and I don't know if we're ready for that

Congrats! Dr. Antonio Bianchi for your NSF Early Career Development award! ceri.as/hz57d

So does anyone actually know who laf-intel (lafintel.wordpress.com) is? Having a citation of just some blog name doesn't feel right to me

They just aren't doing it like this anymore god we had it so good

I got my instant pot for $5 at goodwill and I think it might literally be the best $5 I've ever spent

Almost every night for years when I wake up whether early or normally one or both of my hands or wrists has been numb. I usually sleep on a pretty hard pillow and this week I've been sleeping on a soft one and this has not happened since. Hack unlocked?

If you were alive in the 1980s, this is among the most wonderful & truly incredible things you have ever witnessed in your lifetime.

Controversial opinion I know but Fox Stevenson rules

I'm not really a Sabbath fan I'm too zoomer but wikipedia credibly claims this guy murdered 17 cats with a shotgun so I think I'm gonna keep it that way

A guy at work was arguing that the latest LLM models can write code they weren’t trained on and gave writing code in brainfuck as an example. I said “did you actually run these in an interpreter to confirm they aren’t bullshitting you” A few minutes later he goes, “none of them worked, interesting”

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

This reminds me I need to get some panels for my house

Let chains absolutely fuck holy shit I love rust

Oh cool, Virtualbox has its code on github now: github.com/VirtualBox/v...

Last year Microsoft made $88 billion (that's billion, with a B) in profit on $245B in revenue. That's a 36% profit margin. The idea that they have to put 9000 people out of work in order to improve profitability is absolutely ghoulish. This is not a struggling company, they're swimming in profit.

they should make longjmp2, a new and more fucked up longjmp variant

Reimaged both my computers and re cloned repos. Thought I lost some work on qemu-rs but no, I had actually remembered to push it to a feature branch, please clap

hey look on the bright side: maybe after the housing market collapses because fannie mae was handing out mortgages based on a person's $fartcoin holdings you'll be able to afford a house
