Here are some notes on the paper's authenticity (in German): https://blog.fefe.de/?ts=9ec00c82 Amusingly, at the bottom of the page, it states “Proudly made without PHP, Java, Perl, MySQL and Postgres”.

I was surprised to see, in the 1999 email you linked, that NSA mass surveillance was already widely known, before the NSA ramp up from 9/11 and before the Snowden disclosures. > Actually, I don't think of the NSA's plots t

I've exported my data from 35 services, most via GDPR/CCPA exports. I've written a couple scripts to automate some, but it's not painless. I hope to eventually have a local-first unified store of my data that's easy

Great name. The word “Taler” derives from the “Joachimsthaler Guldengroschen” currency (Guilder groschen of St. Joachin's Valley), or “Thaler” for short. The coin was introduced in 1518 in the Holy Roman Empire and many currencies in E

The intermixing of languages is fascinating. I'm familiar with the phrase „Bock haben“, but was unaware that it originated with Rotwelsch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotwelsch

It would be so much more enjoyable set to John Williams’ score. I’m sure that fans have constructed the complete score. Many silent films had live musical accompaniments, so it would fit the aesthetic.

The WhatsApp fiasco has been great because Signal is now widely-known and I haven't needed WhatsApp anymore for international calls.

I built an AOT compiler for Whitespace with its own SSA-form intermediate representation that lowers to LLVM IR. Whitespace is very similar to a minimal Forth, except, well, syntax. Since StoneKnifeForth has no filesystem access, only stdin

It’s not the only extant orbiter. Most of them are in Baikonur or Moscow. The one in Speyer was an atmospheric test vehicle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buran_programme#List_of_vehi...

How do you install z on fish? z.sh is supposed to be sourced, but that won't work in config.fish.

According to Wikipedia, Elfstedentocht is pronounced [ɛlf'steːdə(n)tɔxt] and Alvestêdetocht [ɔlvəˈstɛːdətɔχt]. Elfstedentocht is close to how I'd pronounce it as a non-native German speaker, except I was pronouncing ‹st› as [ʃ] an

The IPFS component is written in Go and is packaged as a crx, like the built-in Rust ad blocker. Can Brave components like these be created by 3rd-party developers? I'd love to make extension daemons in decent non-JS languages like Go.
