do you think rodrigo fuenzalida intended for his font to be used to announce the death of the supreme leader of iran when he uploaded it to google fonts?

it's an architectural decision that's been done well before (iCloud), but requires a high degree of trust in the implementation (iCloud China)

more just the need for any authority at all. ive realized my feelings on this strongly resemble the WebPKI vs DANE "debate" and im definitely just wrong

i stand by "you don't need checkmarks if usernames can end in .gov", but the whole executive branch signing up with usernames like @white_house47official@gmail.com.bsky.app has me reevaluating that a bit

its so disappointing. i thought this died months ago. what is it about those two magic letters? seeing them written out seems to instantly turn off the parts of our brains capable of complex reasoning

i got curious and looks like webkit is calling (the original) arc4random (Source/WTF/wtf/CryptographicallyRandomNumber.cpp), but they reset the seed often enough that with my limited understanding of attacking RC4 there's not enough time to do anything interesting :(

git's delta compression during a repack should handle it mostly fine. i don't know if github does any extra repacking on top of the automatic repack on pushes

i was thinking about this after your post this morning, but im concerned it wouldnt change much. with such a large portion of users on bluesky pbc's services, youre at risk getting cut off. even without a block, the moderation service applies when viewing the app

i need to think more on this

genuinely the best experience ive had writing a tui was while working on a tech demo for react in the terminal. i dislike how terminal libraries try to be simpler than graphical ones. its the same task! treat it the same! give me flexbox in my terminal! my brain is permanently damaged by javascript!

but in all seriousness, while the compiler is able to elide them most of the time, the semantics would otherwise call for a memmove, which is no faster than the automatic Clone impl. clone is cheap!

llm detection is pseudoscience. it's baffling how even the anti-ai industry has convinced the public to throw away their critical thinking and treat technology as magic without questioning it
