I don’t believe they argued that the 13th amendment says prisoners are slaves. They only asked you to imagine that you are and they pointed out that it’s allowed “according to the Thirteenth amendment”. At least, that was my interpretation.

It's quite buggy. Any minor change from the norm (config directory, txt file directory) seemed to break it. Finally I went with the standards and it still had trouble. `twtxt following` gives you errors. At first I thought it was becau

Young Lust is the song where this operator is heard. Not being an audiophile, it took me some time to figure out the specific song. My brother had The Wall album, and I enjoyed it, but I never listened to it on my own. I went back and liste

I also let my computer read it aloud. You can catch things you don't notice when reading it yourself. I think it's because our brains "fill in the blanks". Listening to the computer is a free and easy way to make a first

I’ve been feeling this same way but didn’t want to articulate it, possibly out of fear. I also wrote a little book based on “old school” or “pure JavaScript”. I’m sure you could make some of the same criticisms of that, but I tried to make

I’m not so sure. It’s a layman’s interpretation, but I think any “forum” would be multi-risk. That means you need to do CSAM scanning if you accept images, CSAM URL scanning if you accept links, and there’s a lot more than that to parse her

Vale.sh looks pretty good, thanks for the reference. I’m currently editing the third edition of my book and a bunch of articles for my website. This will come in handy.

Yeah, I don’t understand system backups anymore. I keep everything I care about in a single directory and clone that to the cloud. I no longer need to worry about backups outside of this. It’s easy enough to install a fresh OS and restore m

Why the down-votes? Are people specifically opposed to gambling or is it something else I said? I'm just wanting to write a hobby slot machine because they fascinate me but the mechanics of a slot machine UI are quite different than a

Would Game Programming Patterns help someone who wants to build a slot machine? I’ve built a wall mounted machine for my home but I never got the software side done. I think a book could help but most of them cover very different mechanics

Unfortunately, this isn’t true. There is at least one organization out there launching privacy suits to extract settlements from small players.

I think this might come down to… Oracle. Obviously there are alternatives like MariaDB but Postgres is a quality long standing open source solution.

I am most productive, from day to day, when I’m also reading. It somehow strokes my mind and encourages my creativity.

I expected this too, so I asked an LLM to write a quick Go program that would tell me how many bytes repeated. I created a 1.44MB file from /dev/random and then ran it through the program. Here are the bytes that repeat the most.

That is not why I didn’t buy Apple Care. My hope is that the machine will work for a long while, like most of them do. In my case it’s a ~$1200 machine so I prefer to self-insure. I’m taking the chance that if it goes bad, I’ll pay to fix o
