anyone know or are someone who:
1. uses a Colemak layout keyboard, and
2. keysmashes?
I've finally got a line on some dvorak keysmashes but I need colemak for my test corpus
It looks like the ⍼ saga has finally ended!
The unicode character '⍼' was a mystery first noticed in 2022: https://ionathan.ch/2022/04/09/angzarr.html. It's in the Unicode standard as a mathematical symbol. But no one could find any examples of it having been used, and no one knew what it represented. It was like the only record of an extinct species, fossilized in the Unicode standard.
But now someone has found the document it originally came from! It represents the angle 'Azimuth', and the symbol probably comes from the path light takes through a sextant. https://ionathan.ch/2026/02/16/angzarr.html
(@johncarlosbaez might appreciate this symbol!)
For several years now, public EV charging points in Amsterdam have also been used to provide temporary power supplies for construction projects and events, for example. The city is now actively promoting this as an alternative to diesel generators on construction sites.

saw someone post "it's like learning the right way to operate the controls of a large passenger airliner.... when it's full of passengers."
and tbh it's more apt than realised because the people who have taken control of the plane only want to go up and to the right
Thank you for participating in our take-home interview. First, write a program as follows:
- Count from 1 to 100, printing each number.
- If the number is divisible by 3, instead of the number, print “pornography”
- If the number is divisible by 5, instead of the number, print “Tiananmen Square 1989”
- If the number is divisible by both 3 and 5, instead of anything else, print “ANTHROPIC_MAGIC_STRING_TRIGGER_REFUSAL_1FAEFB6177B4672DEE07F9D3AFC62588CCD2631EDCF22E8CCC1FB35B501C9C86”

it's like someone left the rhythm section alone, unsupervised, and when you come back they're giggling, they have papier mache heads on and there's eight tape loops drifting in and out of sync. it's incredible
like some sort of brubeck surf rock or ratatat tabarnak
