the most important skill I can think of for a linux software engineer is the
ability to connect multiple systems together and turn windows and macintosh
devices into Linux devices so that datacenters can be built out of whatever's
on the around.
there's this programming language I like called Chapel for distributed
computation computing which is also cool, if you're more of the programming
type.
networking security I believe often has hardware solutions, so getting the
crypto-graphy boys and the PCB girls together to work on some jams is a good

I used to be aroused at the thought of being a girl. I would read stories and
look at pictures of penises turning into vaginas and men turning into women and
it would fill me with longing, yearning, and despair at my circumstances.
then, I transitioned, got SRS, and now I don't get aroused at the thought of
such things. It's just part of who I am.
I used to be aroused at the thought of wearing diapers. I would read stories
and play games of people being cursed by witches to pee their pants, or people
who were stuck at a movie theater and couldn't make it in time or whatever.
These things would fill me with longing, yearning, and despair.
Plus, I had some medical issues that made me lose track of my... um, "currently
utilized waste storage capacity" inside my body. which put me in some
unfortunate situations right around the time when my sexuality was developing.
Now, I wear diapers all the time. I don't get aroused at the thought of such
things anymore. It's just me, as I am.

I asked my girlfriend what was so special about lisp
she said it was "homoiconic"
I asked what that meant
she said that the text that comprised the source code was always a valid data
structure in the language, meaning you could do strange things like develop new
control flow systems or change the behavior of language primitives like + or -
I asked what was the point, she said I didn't get it
so then she asked me to implement a new control flow operator in my favorite
language, Lua, and I was like "bet"
so I did
and it turns out that in order to do so I essentially created a mini embedded
lisp inside of Lua
(it was a function that took in two arguments and an operator and she's like
congrats that's just lisp)
it was at this moment that I was enlightened
the beauty of lisp
it's true and ultimate purpose
is to write lisp code

hey I dont disagree that what you're describing is a common outcome, but if it
works for them then I consider that a success.
I however, am different, I do believe in my heart that I am my own thing, and
thats as close to enlightenment as I can imagine.
are we not all making things up as we go? every moment of life is new, there is
nothing that is not unique about every precious moment you experience.
therefore, I do believe that rigid adherence to orthodoxy (like a bible) is
opposed to our purpose here.
"I think, therefore I am" implies that original thought is our true purpose.
I believe we are here to express our true nature. To learn and apply lessons,
to teach the young, and to build a strong and stable world built on collective
kindness and trust.
All knowledge is derived from the insights gained from standing on the
shoulders of our ancestors.
Humans crave novelty. Resisting that isn't virtuous. If god is made in our
image, then I do believe that god would crave novelty as well.

you can use a username now. They added that functionality recently.
it's supposedly more encrypted or something. But, it's still a centralized

I went to a talk lately that was mostly about something else, but the speaker
came out with:
“If you only remember one thing from this talk, remember this. Everyone in
this room who likes helping people, raise your hand.”
Every hand, or nearly every hand, went up.
“If you like asking other people for help, keep your hand up.”
Almost every hand went back down.
“As you can see, people like helping you. When you ask for help, you’re
making them feel good, even if you don’t like asking.”
I’ve genuinely forgotten the rest of the presentation but I won’t forget
that.

I am often disappointed in both directions, but that's okay, because I planned
for that too! Maybe that wasn't too smart of me, but I'd expect nothing less
than dumb mistakes made once from myself 😋 🥴 :ms_confused: 🤪

think about when you want to spend your energy. the most useful place you can
be is wherever the project is, but the second best place is out on the streets
with an open mind.
if you feel defeated, take heart.
if you feel exhausted, take rest.
if you feel like working a job and coming home to a mess, take a day off to
clean. NOT to rest, you can rest the next day.
a better world is possible. a better world is within reach. remember, it gets
better when you are standing next to your people.

can't stop thinking about a visual programming editor that can be interacted
with in the same way that people are used to (think chromebooks dragging and
dropping icons in a web UI) but produces a text-file full of code and all the
required compilation scripts for any language the user requires...
seriously, programming is not THAT different between the different languages.
especially the main ones. they're all essentially variables and function calls
at the end of the day, so why not abstract away all the extra details and build
something that n00bz can actually use to build things.
I technically could make this but I don't have the bandwidth and I don't think
it's important really? who can say, the tools tend to co-create the solutions
in my experience.

it's okay to care about the project or about a certain subset of features and
yet still be totally un-invested in whatever lame feature people are requesting.
FOSS lives and breathes on passion, and people who attempt to arrest or
otherwise hinder or diminish the passion of the developers can suck a dick.
...
it's a fun experience and I think they'd learn a lot about what other people
like and how to please their partners, both in bed or in conversation.

found these pictures in my pictures directory from the start of the war in
Ukraine.
for context it was directed at the citizens of Ukraine by an American soldier
who wanted to help protect them from the ravages of war and fight back against
an oppressive regime invading their homeland.
idk if you'd ever find them useful but they're the kind of thing to put on a
hard drive and pray you never have to use or ever think about again.

look, if someone was going to intervene, they'd do so at the moment they deemed
most opportune.
this is reasonable.
I try to give people as many opportunities to act as I can, because it gives
them more time to choose reason.
I am completely convinced that my [side/ideals/truth] will be most ethically
consistent. That they make the most logical sense. That they are most aligned
to the reality of what people need to flourish as best as they can.
but it's not about me, so I don't show up.
I want everyone to be able to organize themselves as they want.
I think this is a form of anarchism, as it abolishes unjust hierarchies and
enables people to fully consent to any structures they might choose to
associate with.
this is called "freedom of association."
I also believe that everyone should get what they need. This does not refer
solely to "Mazlowe's Hierarchy of Needs", also known as the material needs
necessary for a persons life.
It must also include what a person needs to be effective, and to thrive.

I dedicate myself to a lifetime in the service of others.
what plagues people? primarily, capitalism. It is trivial to identify how their
problems are ultimately caused by the state, both institutions and corporations.
I dedicate myself toward finding alternatives and developing guides to reach
them.
the first step on ALL of these plans is to convince others of their benefit.
I am but one person. I might speak to a scant 300 in the course of a year.
Especially if I am ALSO trying to develop methodologies.
the people I live and work with have no interest in working with me. Yet still,
I spend my time on them because I love them.

It's funny, I've seen Andor season 1 twice now and the first time was when it
aired live.
It felt so much more invigorating to my soul the first time. I wondered why,
and I believe the reason is because it inspired me to go out and be brave as
fuck. People were terrified, I saw it in their faces. It felt like the scenes
on coruscant where everyone keeps their head down and looks around warily.
Now, things are fucking great outside. You can go on a walk and see people in
the park. I love that.
I guess it didn't hit me the same way the second time around because I made
progress on my "own personal revolution" (nemik to skene) and now the fear
feels distant.
Season 2 was pretty great. Gonna watch that again soon.

I never rest. Not mentally. I find it sooooo much harder to get moving again
once I'm asleep.
But I've been sleeping lately, because it's "good for me" or whatever. Because
I'm "burnt out and need to heal" or something.
Damnit why is it so much harder to stop snuggling someone than it is to pack up
a tent?
I'm like the guy in Hot Fuzz, that one really good movie about cops. oops cops
mentioned one second.
I'm always moving, but, I hardly ever seem to be able to get anything done. Why
is that? Is the work just... endless? Am I ever a slave to my surroundings? Or
am I just cursed with a mortal form, a form destined to toil in whatever way it
finds itself contextualized in?
Maybe I should just stop complaining. Maybe work is it's own reward or
whatever. I don't think I'm depressed anymore, although good luck getting me to
feel any emotions except focus, and the call to intercede on another's behalf.
I don't have time for this. >.

casus belli if you didn't know is latin I think and it means "the reason for
waging war" or put another way, some formal reason presented to a state,
nation, or leader that says "hey this is why we're gonna come and kill you"
