Legacy Commentary

How GO Was Created - Less Is More “I do not think people who love rust could go to another language they’re kind of sucked into rusthole” lmao. (2023/07/24)
Keep Linux Open and Free!!!! Oracle Dunks on IBM kek. (2023/07/12)
The Most Efficient Struct Configuration Pattern For Go. It’s actually very useful pattern to use. I’ve used it a lot in Go, it was inspired to me from Lisp (I can tell that is one of the most common patterns in Lisp). I was thinking today if it will be possible to have a fantastic control-statement function in Go like Lisp’s IF. (2023/06/30)
The Rust programming language absolutely positively sucks. I like the fact that they published it in r/rust. (2023/06/22)

A Tale of Unwanted Disruption: My Week Without Amazon. Smart housing is one of the worst ideas that we have been through so far. Just as bad as thinking in the 90s that people in the next millennium would execute programs that they don’t know how they are implemented. (2023/06/19)
Robot taxi killed dog Is rms’ comment very irrelevant? (2023/06/18)
Editor/IDE Tier List “I’ve never met someone who used emacs that I’m not just impressed with”. Okay he fixed it right away. (2023/06/13)
- Editor/IDE Tier List “I never opened it I never used it there was only that wired guy at work who uses it”. This way to describe emacs hits me hard actually. (2023/06/13)
Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast in 2023 [Colorized]. “- So you are going to treat it as a text buffer? - I treat my whole life as a text buffer” lol. (2023/06/11)
I hate almost all software. Totally agree. This industry is just horrible. (2023/06/06)
drag gets all fucked to fuck when you click and drag and release outside of the slider shit · Issue #1631 · nolimits4web/swiper. This is how we handle technical documentation for bugs, ladies and gentlemen. (2023/06/06)
Israeli agents conducted targeted killings in West Bank, killing a child. I’ve studied some propaganda modules years ago that explained me much of what I’m seeing in the mass media, yet it is never enough to make you see what is going behind the scene that would make the washingtonpost publish such a report.

The Stack Overflow Survey. “I did do crystalmeth but that’s different than crystal” this actually hits hard if you know that theprimeagen is an ex-crystalmeth addict. (2023/05/23)

Vim vs Emacs | Prime Reacts. “Those who run terminal emulator inside of their text editor have already screwed up” lmao. (2023/05/19)
Hero’s journey - Wikipedia. I was much younger when I read Campell’s “The hero with a thousand faces” for the first time. My thoughts now towards psychoanalyses are much developed compared to then, yet they are not decisive. I think I’m going to reread it to have more definitive view of psychoanalysis. (2023/05/19)
Why can’t I land a job : cscareerquestions. “challenging challenges”. Btw, let me put my opinion on language models here too. I don’t think they are bad in general but in fact they solve only one problem; the bureaucratic writings. You can ask it to write you any useless load of “scalable”, “ascendable” or whatever words the HR will be happy seeing while checking your resume. (2023/05/16)
Writing academic papers with org-mode. A thorough explanation. I feel confidence when I see this kind of intuition of teleportation; the explained workflow is very similar to what I’ve been doing, however I thought that what I’m doing is special workflow of mine. (2023/05/12)

Prove that any palindrome with an even number of digits is divisible by 11 Was solving some euler problems today, found this interesting pattern in palindrome product:

    3 digits:            913 x            993 =                       906609, 7ms

How To Become A Hacker Why this guide is not ubiquitous enough? I found it months ago when I was browsing Paul Geraham blog (he was arguing about an entry about Lisp here). I think it’s a very suitable guide for everyone who is involved into using computer, it’s a sad fact that even modern ’computer scientests’ need such a guide. (2022/12/05)

Poetry time! Go proverbs as limericks

There once was a programmer named Joe
Who loved coding in Go, don’t you know?
He found it quite neat
With concurrency sweet
And a syntax that was oh so low-key

With goroutines running in parallel
His code ran faster than a serial
He could handle many tasks
With ease and with panache
Thanks to Go’s ability to scale.

So if you want your code to be lean
And run faster than you’ve ever seen
Give Go a try
And watch your code fly
And see what it can do for your machine

Embedding WebKit in Emacs: XWidgets+WebKit Feature Preview Seems very interesting. I used to think it’s a hopeless technological when I tried it with M-x xwidget-webkit-browse-url, damn it I don’t want even to remember. However I recently tried akirakyle/emacs-webkit and it rocks, I’ve been thinking of replacing chromium with it. Now, XWidgets seems very promising to me. I wish I had some free time to develop great things with it. (2022/11/04)
