Starliner crew reports hearing strange "sonar like noises" emanating from their craft. This is the real audio of it:

for some people, memory unsafety seems to make them feel important to the point of being a load-bearing identity component, independent of whether they handle it well in reality
others work on low-level code because there's value to be created there, even though there are hazards

this is my emotional support carwash. whenever I get sad I ssh into this Montenegrin carwash I found on shodan 12 years ago and spin the rollers a bit. makes me feel real again

Generally speaking, C is pretty straightforward. It takes about 20 days to learn 80% of it, and then no more than 20 years to cover the remaining 20%

um. why does Zellij need AVX512 to, uh, display a status bar?

People don't want the truth.

I recently helped a client build a PDF report generator that took about five minutes to run - and the users hated it.

So I had the application throw up a fake dialog with fake messages about "Collating data, Validating setup, Sorting, Generating" and other such nonsense.

The PDF generation now took eight minutes to run because I had to abuse some JS event for it to work.

The users loved it.

How do you create Nothing at all? And once you've created Nothing, how do you measure it?

It's a lot harder than you think…

“He’s gone where? Oh my god, to Morrisons! To do a f*cking photoshoot sniffing a loaf of f*cking bread! You know they’ll keep moving him until they get a photo of the twat in front of a sign reading ‘moron’?

I received a mysterious aerospace computer from the early 1970s, probably for navigation. It is crammed full of flat-pack integrated circuits surrounding a core memory module. Let's take a look inside... 1/17

Been for a walk, very emotional thinking about my Mom who's got dementia and won't know about tonight. I wish more than anything she'd call and say " They did it aaar babbi, they did it!".

Thinking about younger Villans, tired I'm sure of the stories of Rotterdam and 1982, who have a chance on the world stage to show the tifo, passion and colour of our club and city and region, take that baton and run with it, out tifo Dortmund, I dare ya! That's your challenge.

Thinking about Sid Cowans, in care now, I hope beyond hope that tonight touches him deep in his very big heart, if there's a God, it will.

Thinking about family and friends who are excitedly messaging, who can't quite believe it!

Thinking about Villa Park, welcoming Barcelona, Juventus and Madrid, the grandest of old clubs welcoming Europe's finest. Again.

Drink it in younger Villans, I've waited 41 years for this, I've been a child, teen wannabe, had a full football career, 20+ years retired from playing to get here, so if you're that 21 year old Holte Ender, make every memory, go on every trip you can, be a tangible part of the passion and noise to come. It all goes very quickly, trust me.

And finally to Unai Emery, the players, staff and owners. Thank you. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels connected to the club again after a long time where many of us us were genuinely worried whether there would be a Villa.

A great name.
A glorious past.
A bright future.

Villans, puff your chests out, and enjoy it.

Love, Stanley Victor.💜💙
