Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

the new #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer applet interface is _incredibly_ useful for composing a bunch of things together so you can explore a target

for example, this code composes a clock generator, an UART, and some GPIOs for attacking a NEC 78K0 series MCU paste.debian.net/1408200/

i'm very pleased that git-pages/Grebedoc has prompted people to consider including it in other projects (tangled) or develop similar services (wisp.place)

it was always meant to be a "Here is how I solved this problem. It is now solved" type of project, and seeing this happen means i've succeeded

@nekomimi.pet out of curiosity, is wisp.place inspired by git-pages/grebedoc or is this just convergence?

My strong belief is that you should be able to ask a program how it wants to be talked to, so you can:

* cross check binary compatibility at runtime
* download schemas for codegen or proc gen'd docs
* dynamically generate tool paths for a repl/cli lib/api translator
"structured messages with built-in reflection" is the dream, yeah. i want something like powershell Get-Member for every process in my shell, every feature of my terminal emulator, every part of the line editor!

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

have you ever wanted a #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer, but more wireless? #ESP32JTAG is a Glasgow-inspired device which is specialized for FPGA/MCU programming and debug, and works over WiFi. I think it's very cool and I've backed the project www.crowdsupply.com/ez32/esp32jtag

From 2022: The evidence suggests that at some point in the Miocene, one or more worms may have scavenged a dead fish’s brain, leaving a profuse amount of excrement in their wake.
