"Now is the time to tighten the screws!"

Historians have a word for autistic Nazis.
They're called Nazis.

Historians have a word for ironic Nazis.
They're called Nazis.

Historians have a word for smug Nazis that are just stirring the pot to own the libs.
They're called Nazis.

No one gives a flying shitfuck WHY you're a Nazi. If you do the Nazi salute, you're a Nazi. End of.

Watching the ongoing coup in the US and comparing it to the failed attempt in UA 2013-14.... The US folks are still not getting that this will require millions on squares, being fired at and still persevering. Watch some Maidan movie and get on with it. 🤷

In an alternative timeline where #FunctionalProgramming is the norm instead of Object-oriented programming, and #Haskell is the most popular #ProgrammingLanguage instead of #Java, there is a list of tutorials trying to explain what Objects are to programmers in terms of FP concepts, the most popular of which is, “Objects are Comonads”.

However, we don't live in that timeline, so we'll have to be content with the inverse article, “Comonads are Objects” https://www.haskellforall.com/2013/02/you-could-have-invented-comonads.html.

My family in Europe for years have tried to get me onto WhatsApp, to which I always replied, no - but what about Signal?

This morning I got a text from my brother:

hey, do you use Signal?

After reminding that yes, i do, and what I always recommended, he said that with "everything that's happening in America" he and the family is switching over.

My 77 year old mom is next.

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

A friend asked me some questions about #nix and #nixos. So, naturally, I wrote a blog post with notes I wished I had access to when I first started using NixOS.

Europe should consider sanctions against the US government and companies associated with their oligarchs.

They're clearly in league with Russia when it comes to destabilizing Europe, European democracies, and the war on Ukraine.

⚡️63% of Ukrainians approve Zelensky as president, poll shows.

Some 26.1% of Ukrainians said they completely approve Zelensky, while another 36.9% said they tend to approve him. The overall figure is higher than in polls conducted years before Russia's full-scale invasion, as well as in the spring of 2024.
