Programmer and game developer.

Added vertical writing support to the Calibre eBook reader.

My current project is working on a new, simplified approach to creating programming languages that are written without the need for traditional grammars or parsing.

Attending my fourth protest! (Hands Off and this is my third No Kings.)

Last time I tried to invest in the stock market, it was right before the economy crashed in the Great Recession and the company I invested in literally went out of business.

Just a few weeks ago I decided to buy some stocks again. Only the second time I've tried to do it. So I guess I just have epically poor timing with investments?

@SnoopJ Can you understand this? Might be a fun puzzle for you. My wife had to explain it to me. πŸ˜‚
i was thinking about watching Rashomon, but everyone I asked had a different opinion about it
I am, once again, accused of being a hobby programmer. I’ve done 40+ years in 20+ languages in a half dozen different industries. I have, as they say, seen attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, and all this vital code you think you are writing will indeed be lost in time. All that remains is what you learned writing it. If I could go back and do my time over I would not wish to do more, I would try to do less and do it better.
mmhmm mmhmmm

I had a very Gentoo morning. Ten minutes before a video call appointment I discovered my webcam wasn't working, and then realized my kernel didn't have webcam support configured.

A bit of frantic configuration, a build, and a reboot later, I was back in action with maybe three minutes to go. I was pretty lucky I was able to get it working on the first try!

The second link explains what it is, the first link is documentation of a long search without finding it.

When you post things on Instagram, Facebook, and X, this is what they look like to people who don’t use those platforms.
