i need to listen to less british podcasts, always makes me insecure when they pronounce something wildly differently.
just heard "diaspora" as "dia-SPORE-a".

reminder that making fun of fictional characters appearances is not without consequence
lots of real people that look similarly will interpret those comments as applying to them as well.

if you're gonna call someone out on something, maybe provide some way for people to verify what you're saying??
otherwise it makes it quite easy to spread misinfo about things.

the firefox search/address bar is nondeterministic.
not only can you type some letters and press enter, then have the enter press processed first somehow, but also the autocomplete can kick in and cause you to search for something way more specific than you were trying to.

the increasing complexity of computer programs
i had a question about the julia programming language, and (naively) thought i would just take a look at the source code.
after looking at various files written in several different programming languages, i was even more confused.
i couldn't tell you if julia code runs through lli, llc, the femptolisp vm, a custom bytecode, some combination of these, or something else entirely.
with everything abstracted away so much, all documentation tells you about is how to use a tool, and nothing about how it works.
it's hard to express the difference between something like plan9 where you can easily find and change a single line of code to make the system do what you want, and something like this.

so i set out to write what i thought was a fairly simple probability curve.
i though i needed some trig function, i typed some reference points into a graphing calculator, and started looking for a function that matched...
after a lot of finding nothing that was even close, i found an exact match for all my reference points...
after rewriting it in lua, i finally had it:
`-(2^(-absn)-1)/2*n/absn+0.5`
why is this so complicated...
