The author is super cool. They are one of very few people to write any substantial programs in Malbolge, a programming language designed to be cryptographically hard to use (or something like that)

I write with a similar approach to zettelkasten. My technique is purely digital. Paper is too easy to lose, damage, or not have on you when you need it, compared to a digital file that can be copied, synced, and backed up. I keep everything

I use this feature a lot. I noticed a month or two ago that it started requiring way more authentication than it did at release, and then it went back to normal a few weeks later. I wonder if that was while they were fixing whatever vulnera

I believe OCaml's syntax does suck, but I don’t think this article gives a compelling argument as to why. Missing an `in` turns a let expression into a top level binding and kicks a syntax error often a long way down the file, making i
