turns out you can make two simple typos at the same time and suddenly have a variable named biteCunt

did you know that SSH has a little-known secret menu?

i wrote a post about this on cohost a while back, but since that site shut down i'm posting it here too

@SpindleyQ I really, really enjoyed reading your essay! It maps closely to my own experience, and is a great reminder.

This is 100% correct.

Also, folks have been looking to write cross platform programs since time immemorial anyway. Native has always been fighting against this. So now native is bad and electron is “good enough”…. There’s just no winning anymore. The operating systems have given up.

Who called it "prompt injection" and not "Escape from Markov"
@eniko I’m sorry for the probably very remedial question on a very old post, but how does the scaling… work? I could imagine designing for a low base resolution and then rendering to a target resolution chosen to maintain aspect ratio and be an integer multiple of the base to minimize blurriness? Is that the thing?

It is 222 A.D. You are the transgender Empress Elagabalus, "call me not a man for I am a woman". Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1776. You are "Public Universal Friend", a transmasculine nonbinary Quaker. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1906. You are Karl M. Baer, a trans man undergoing sex reassignment. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1930. You are Lili Elbe. Transitioning is new and experimental. (to be fair you did get a uterus transplant.)

It is 1966. You are in Compton's Cafeteria with a bunch of other trans people when the owners call the cops to throw you all out. You riot. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1969. You are Marsha "pay it no mind" Johnson. You are in a mob-run gay bar when the cops attack. You throw a brick. There is a bit of a scuffle. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 2026. You are a transgender adult or child listening to the NYT and British Guardian claim this is the first generation anyone has tried transitioning in. Transitioning is new and experimental.

@tekknolagi I just want to say that I really enjoy your blog, thank you for continuing to post!
@anildash yes agreed! “Please make me rules that do this…” “does this look like what you want?” Etc
