with these guys, there's less mystery than at first glance. it'll inevitably have proprietary screws & a non-replaceable battery, be made of glass that cracks on sight, have no depth & somehow not cast a shadow, be bigger than your old iphone, & haunted by steve jobs' ghost

I was Void-born, by Root & Wyrm, mothered by The White Lady, chosen by The Pale King, a Pure Vessel to forever bind The Radiance, but a single flaw, *an idea instilled*, cracked both shell & seal, spreading The Infection meant to hold, corrupting, from The Temple of the Black Egg, to all Hallownest.

I used to joke that smartphones would steadily decrease in ergonomics while increasing in footprint, cost, and fragility until the world would be stuck carrying around $1000 sheets of glass and here we are

Everyone is going on about cloudflare and github outages today.
Meanwhile I'm calling out `cd` as a pedantic command that needs rethinking in the 21st century:

I have rarely been to a theater since the pandemic (Boy & The Heron, Nosferatu) but liked Frankenstein so much I saw it twice.
If you can, Frankenstein is a great to experience on a big screen front and center, as close to the screen as possible without craning your neck!

FRANKENSTEIN is on NETFLIX but- still in many theatres- please consult your local listings and choose your watch/rewatch preference!
Where do I even begin? Guillermo del Toro @realgdt.bsky.social has created an absolute masterpiece. I only wish I’d had the chance to experience it on the big screen. The story of Frankenstein has been told countless times, but never like this.

I'm thinking 1950's term "Artificial Intelligence" was a misnomer, and "Simulated Intelligence" would have been more apt.
e.g. Microsoft Flight Simulator has hyper-realistic controls and can be convincing with VR, but nobody confuses it with remotely flying an airplane or drone: it's a simulation.

hey nyc, so who did y'all end up voting for? I'm nostalgic so I voted for Krauser from Resident Evil 4 (not my favorite character but it was such a classic game and a great remake too!)

I told a doctor once that programmers get put on a PIP (Performance Improvement Plan, i.e. a path to getting fired) if they solve problems the way the medical sector / some doctors do. We actually have to correctly diagnose & understand root causes of problems, replicate them, test a fix against it.

So, why isn't the command named `owd` (output working directory) instead of `pwd` and why isn't the var named CWD (Current Working Directory) instead of PWD (especially since vars are ideally being named as nouns and not verbs)?
