I think people really don't appreciate just how incomplete Linux kernel API docs are, and how Rust solves the problem. I wrote a pile of Rust abstractions for various subsystems. For practically every single one, I had to read the C source code to understand how to use its API.

Employment-wise, at least for the moment.

I’m mildly disappointed that the local hs “STEM” center lists AI, sysadmin, netsec, and the worst parts of software dev as their Computer Science category. Let’s just focus on the golden paint rather than the piles.

Four years ago today, I walked into the apocalypse. Crossing the line in the ER felt like entering a whole other world. Frenetic alarms. Patients strewn about, struggling to breathe. Too few staff. Too many deaths. Covid was everything. It had completely taken over our ER

The sump pump has been going off like it would if it were located in Illinois in April. Last time Colorado has been this wet was maybe ten years ago.

“The Last Duel” is a hard movie to watch. Really hard.

I’m of the mind that the original SMS character limit is the most important part of Twitter’s formative years. The other social networks didn’t constrain like that. Having the constraint led to more conversation-like interaction. Long form is just TLDR.

If you ever wonder how much the world has changed, there used to be a mainstream comedy television show that revolved around a talking horse.

@aluhrs13 Just block him and his name as a keyword. Twitter is much better as a result. The only problem is when people call him by different names, but that seems to be getting less frequent recently.

I continue to be concerned about the impacts of the Feb 3 train derailment near East Palestine, OH, and the effects on families in the ten days since their lives were upended through no fault of their own. It’s important that families have access to useful & accurate information:

One of the best examples (and worst outcomes) of the judicial system behaving as the legislature is Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad Co.
