@jonn @chodzikman I think Nickel is supposed to be that.

Had to verify. And yes. Kernighan and Ritchie really did this. TIL :)

I am sorry to report that the last two publications recognizable as computer magazines in the classic sense have abandoned print. (You probably didn’t notice unless you were a subscriber.) I was moved to write a eulogy for the whole era. https://www.technologizer.com/2023/04/15/the-end-of-computer-magazines-in-america/

A mechanism for #LongCovid

I am beyond excited to finally be able to share what I’ve been working on for the past year.

At the beginning of March 22, I discovered a potential mechanism for #LongCovid. It was a unifying mechanism that could explain every single symptom that patients were reporting, something I never thought possible for a disease that has over 200. Yet, this mechanism actually did.

I’m experimenting with different kinds of content, as I want to keep my social media thriving, it’s important to me I remain connected to the community and it’s the main way I find commissions. What do people think about occasional tutorials? Simple one pagers like this or longer form videos? #drawing #sketchingtips #howtodraw #sketching #illustration #procreate #mapping #dndmap #dndcartography #cartography #cartographer #ttrpg

Birds and snow today.

I never wrote about tech & software in anything other than English. Today, I am starting my Ukrainian 🇺🇦 Telegram channel.

Ніколи не писав технічного матеріалу українською, тому я вирішив спробувати ділитися своїми нотатками з україномовною 🇺🇦 публікою.

At times, representing the variety of types a value in #Postges (or any SQL database) can take through multiple tables can taxing, both in terms of development complexity as well as, potentially, performance.

You must just need a value to be of any of the given variants. I've set out to build a generalized mechanism for defining these.

Wow that #Substack CEO interview is a train wreck:

Q: No, I really want you to answer that question. Is that allowed on Substack Notes? “We should not allow brown people in the country.”

A: I’m not going to get into gotcha content moderation.

Q: This is not a gotcha... I’m a brown person. Do you think people on Substack should say I should get kicked out of the country?

A: I’m not going to engage in content moderation, “Would you or won’t you this or that?”
