Hi, I'm Danko, 35, from Riga, 🇱🇻 #Latvia

Mostly #webdev, mostly #TypeScript, sometimes #Rust. Curly braces, semicolons, tabs. #Linux noob since 2005.

Cishet white dude, atheist, left-ish. ADHD + MDD.

I like loud electronic music, twin-stick shooters and cats.

The avatar is me rudely pointing at the viewer (since 2006). The header image is the This Is Fine dog saying "Sorry, something went wrong."

If I should've boosted your picture that I liked, it's quite likely that you should've put alt text on it.

To the people complaining these sex abuse cases have created a world where men now have to think 10 times before they touch a woman.

Yes, that's the point.

It's called consent. Welcome to human decency.

Love this.

Overheard at the supermarket, from the next aisle:

Feminine voice: "You're.. um.. you're autism aren't you?"
Masculine voice: "Well. Not ALL of it".

i was quite surprised to discover that no one had registered deleteduser [dot] com, and was curious to see how many emails i'd get if i registered it, assuming many orgs 'delete' logic probably just overwrote the email address with [email protected] or similar.

The answer, is at least 3 different orgs in the hour that I've owned that domain and been listening for email.

And yes, all of those emails contain the actual PII of the person who has been 'deleted' :-D

hey, are _you_ for some reason trying to build some simple Rust code for a mac, but you aren't on a mac?

turns out you *only* need a few hundred kilobytes of yaml files and some ~magic linker args~ to make this work

rustflags = ["-Clinker=rust-lld", "-Lxtra-macos", "-Clink-arg=-Fxtra-macos"]

don't need to fuck around with apple IDs, SDKs, and such nonsense

IANAL, but these files, especially with they way they've been constructed, are almost certainly not copyrightable
