Languages that I like:
| name | role | appeal | strongest impression |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fish | shell | simple syntax i can remember | the core team is too busy to release a new version for a critical bug. the bug is now fixed. |

Terminal: KiTTY
GUI libraries that do it right: imgui uhtml htmx
If you like playing around with language models, try out RWKV.
Games I liked (and may still play):
- SS14 (source): Comedic Rhapsody in Space. Realtime multi-player. A lot of features got added recently (2023-08-14).
- Intricacy (with source): Picking locks that hurt your brain. Async multi-player, with user-created locks.
- Dona Misa: The game is random. Sometimes you can win.
Present events worth worrying about
Other than picking a side to stand on, I ask you to think for yourself: who profit the most from those events? The more precise your answer is - down to individual persons - the better.
- The combat debacle in Sudan.
- The Israel War On Gaza. I don't understand this anymore.
- The Russia-Ukraine War. Since the end of USSR, we are now mostly likely to see mushroom clouds.
- Politicians fearmonger for power.
- Our ancestors built democracy in the image of autocracy, and we are now seeing the design influence.
- Rent triumps over profit: a bad time to be free
For more information, see www.hrw.org. Sadly, the only way to know what is going on in other contries is to connect with people there directly, including on social media. Most media outlets have opinions, which render them useless as sources of information. We don't know how to circumvent this. We want to know.
@whitingx@mastodon.cloud recommended another way of acquiring global news: Wikipedia Portal:Current_events. It has Atom feed too!
