Lest anyone underestimates the political significance of #Eurovision: Ukraine Eurovision act's city attacked before performance bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-65

I'm so sad that there are so little russians who are looking forward to the victory of . I know hundreds of russians and only three of them, maybe four are genuinely supporting the war effort of the defenders.

That also means that there are so little people I can share memes I write in russian with. So sad.

Kids today with their blue hair and pronouns.
Kids today with their baggy pants and rap music.
Kids today with their long hair and heavy metal music.
Kids today with their long hair and hippie music.
Kids today with their leather jackets and rock’n’roll music.
Kids today with their flapper outfits and jazz music.

Same as it ever was? Same as it ever was.

It's heartening that Erdogan might lose the presidency this week in Turkey. But let's be clear: If he hadn't jailed his opponents, undermined the press and used state power for political gain, he would already be gone.

My afternoon hack project was a Rust hello world app for Windows 95. The really cool part is it's cross-compiled from Linux!! No MSVC involvement whatsoever in producing this .exe!

Старенький дед с висящей рукой,
ШИЗОшный политзаключённый
И эта, что с лентой вертится юлой,
Тоже является рашкой никчёмной

Гнилой оккупант в украинской земле,
Мостик непересечённый
”Лада” — подход "деньгами завлечь",
Тоже являются рашкой никчёмной

Чёрствый сухарь, депутата икра,
Мужчина с козой обручённый
Избитая дочь, звуки уличных драк,
Тоже являются рашкой никчёмной

Злобный поэт, глупый рокер-старпёр,
Уехавших радиоволны:
Жалеют убийц, стелят мягкий ковёр
И тоже являются рашкой никчёмной

I vowed to blog at least once per week and I’m way ahead of schedule. This one is on the difference between homomorphic encryption and multi-party computation, plus Ashton Kutcher. blog.cryptographyengineering.c

I’ve been meaning to switch to @Codeberg for personal projects, but was hesitant to take my work off GitHub.

Turns you don’t have to. Codeberg has a migrator to import projects (including issues and pull requests) from elsewhere, and setting up multiple remotes in git allows for using Codeberg as the main repository, and GitHub as a makeshift mirror.

Because the repository is duplicated, you can even accept pull requests on either platform without requiring users to switch.

My favorite bit of spy stories, real and otherwise, is the "fuck around" half.

Apparently, there's money in selling bananas in the financial district of London. I wonder if there's a more succinct way of phrasing it...

Donald #Trump has continued his long-held position of refusing to say a bad word about russian President putin, declining to say if he wants Ukraine or russia to win the war.

Did you know, if Mastodon says that media is “Not available” you can click it to load it directly from the remote instance?

I also got some post cards. I'm a bit sad I won't have kids (likely), because then they would be able to look through my memory box and ask stuff about these post cards like I did when I was growing up.

My stories would have been fun.

I heard that Brits who supports Labour are against supporting Ukraine because capitulation of Ukraine would allegedly save lives.

Is this a myth? Surely they can tell a difference between the war between equal countries and an empire war. Empire wars escalate the more underdog opposition capitulates, because, and I have no idea why this even needs to be talked about, the more resources the Empires gather, the longer they can wage wars.

I hope it's a myth though.

Thinking more about ways to get a #bootstrappable build of the #Haskell compiler GHC:

(and hoping that someone else either has better ideas, or more stamina, to pull this through.)
