Long time no see, Bskyers.

ugh scheme ilu so much liek so so much bcuz wen im coding in clojure i don't have the same urge to put shit specifically in the tail position liek (car (reverse the-top-secret-list))

I feel that Apple probably prioritizes iOS over macOS development recently.

#MacOS

I've been posting the same messages on three micro-blogging platforms over the past few days. I think one of them have soft-rejected me.

Today I learned from the ExplainingComputers channel that GIMP 3.0 now supports non-destructive editing. 😍

At night, I want to rest, not restart a computer or fix a broken OS update.

#macOS

I don’t choose a social network. A social network chooses me.

Now, all of my laptops run Debian. The MacBook Pro isn’t mine. Fedora is a great distro, but I don’t need cutting-edge, frequently updated software for my old laptops.

You may tell them that a software engineer (me) did this last week and lost all his modified functions and had to modify them again. 🥹

eMac doesn't sound important compared to Commodore 64.

By giving them examples?

How do you explain to someone that when git tells you there is a conflict in your merge, the answer is not to simply delete the changes that weren’t in your branch?

About 25 years ago, I disliked that so many Debian tools were written in Perl because the language allowed too many ways to do the same thing. Now, I consider Perl 5 mature and predictable compared to Python 3.

#debian #perl

Python 3 may have already surpassed Perl 5 in the number of different ways to accomplish the same basic tasks.

The GNU system must have been developer-first, since its first two programs were a text/code editor (Emacs) and a compiler (GCC).

TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, and other algorithmic platforms try to connect me with Thai people, which is good and reasonable. However, Thai Common Lispers aren’t there, for example. As a result, it’s disappointing.

A picture is worth a thousand words," so alt text should allow more than 5,000 characters.

I think I will lose my job soon because of US tariffs. So I started saving by cancelling YouTube Music and Netflix subscriptions.

Some people claim Python is only for beginners. I wonder if they have profound insights I'm unaware of, or if their assessment is too shallow.

Despite sounding like a video game from the 80s, contravariant in Python is not about shooting.

#PythonDev

Neither X nor Tesla uses Common Lisp, to my knowledge. Therefore, contributing to Common Lisp-based free software projects likely means you won't be working for Elon Musk unpaid.

I've been told to avoid linked lists because their elements are scattered everywhere, which may or may not be true.

Who is the owner of Bluesky now?
