Class struggle as a service

Speaking of the Epstein files…

Post lawn mowing cup of tea.

I can hear the neighbour’s yacht rock in the distance. Heh.

Life in the burbs.

Corporates doing the communication thing with memes. AI generated pretends of the same. I’ve made my peace with it all.

Live, laugh, love, raise a rebel army & overthrow the state.

What if small communities, but at scale?

I like reading the comments. Even the tedious conservative guff. Gives me new stuff to be in a “permanent state of teenage rebellion” about.

Still thinking about a language that transpiles to Ada.

Discussions about transpiled language weaknesses, howtos on tokenisers. Lolz.

I feel like Steve Martin in a Man With Two Brains. Any kind of sign… *as the painting on the walls spins around*

And a blog I read suddenly becomes a book about writing a compiler in Zig.

Interesting commentary about transpiled languages, & a new one.

People talking about suddenly needing to migrate instances, but I can’t find the fedidrama motivating that.

Now I need to know. Make sure it’s not me.

Robert Mueller, shot himself in the back then threw himself out a window. Twice. Just clumsy I guess.

Thought One Battle After Another was fun. Enjoyed it. Reader, I was maligned for that opinion. Maligned.

Just got told by ChatGPT that the developer of the Hare language was Richard Häger. (It’s Drew DeVault.)

When asked it said “that was a confusion (likely because of the name similarity)”.

It’s tempting to imagine Richard Häger’s someone also involved in the project. Or maybe a cry for help, like Rollo Tomassi from LA Confidential.

But he’s just a plausibly shaped set of words. A vaguely Euro name. Not truth, or a lie, just a thing that might partly overlap with those with no intent at all.
