Here is an insane piece of lore inside SQLite's source code

I am researching VACUUM and I was studying their code. In VACUUM, SQLite creates a temp file prefixed with `etilqs_`

Here is why:

In my view, the oft-repeated take that we can stop caring about the code an agent generates in the same way that we don't care about the assembly our compilers generate is misguided. Unlike generating code from a spec, compiling code is deterministic and measurable.

Someone said that our Sega Dreamcast ports were a pointless waste of time today and that nobody will play them…

Meet my son, who was the first kid to ever play Mario 64, Doom 64, Mario Kart 64, Starfox 64, Sonic Mania, Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City, and now The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time—some of my all-time favorite games from childhood—on my favorite console, the Sega Dreamcast, for his first play-throughs… and his little sister plays with us as well.

Despite the fact that we actually do have a thriving homebrew scene of people playing and supporting us, I could not give less of a shit if anyone else plays them or appreciates the work… This is all the validation I need.

I picked up a paperback after years of reading on Kindle. There's an urge to tap on words

the main issue with video games is that a guy who, if he lived in 1820s germany, would have done something like document every type of beetle in his local province instead ends up making a 26 part youtube series about how to get all the rings in every sonic game

"A calculator app? Anyone could make that."

Not true.

A calculator should show you the result of the mathematical expression you entered. That's much, much harder than it sounds.

What I'm about to tell you is the greatest calculator app development story ever told.

Hey @DiveShearwater, a user can click install without much consideration or e.g. not knowing what "Tissues will be cleared" means and end up in a less-than-safe situation...

Are there plans to improve the UX?

[Sergey Savenko 🇺🇦 @Deadok22]

@gunnarmorling That makes for poor copy UX, but that's something @github can fix, I imagine?
