POV: You’re about to read a thesis condensed down into a tight three hundred and ninety-seven paragraphs

Bad news. The Taliban hacked my headphones and turned my grey matter into pudding and now I enjoy Love is Blind

In Hyperion, the in-story history refers to an event called “The Big Mistake” wherein an artificial black hole consumes the Earth

I’m not saying we should, but it presents a compelling solution for what to do with sports betting companies and scam call centers

Makes me sad to think that there may be kids out there that may never have Owl at Home or Frog and Toad read to them at bedtime

Are you even toddlermaxing if your kid hasn’t listened to Owl make tea out of tears or Frog look for spring or Toad find his lost button

I have at least three blog post drafts that I want to publish solely for the good titles I came up with

I mean they’re still comprised of good content; I just need to let my hair down after so much formal prose written for LWN

Okay fair

It's never been a better time than now to learn nix flakes:

lwn.net/SubscriberLink…

I edited my early drafts of this… a lot because LWN is a place to report on technical topics rather than air out editorial opinions, and I think I managed to achieve the former

Told my wife I was debating who had the best-looking and easy-to-handle AI hardness online with other dudes and she banned me from social media

My business is using PHP? The Personal Home Page software?

Everybody needs to calm down about the CA compromise. They’ve bumped the private key from 4 to the next logical number, but please do not post about what that next logical number following 4 may be lest it be publicly disclosed

People are saying this secure number is prime so I have high confidence in its use for Security Purposes

Days like today I am so glad to be out of the SRE on-call rotation game

I don’t need an intermediate CA rotation in my life, heartbleed was enough for me

Writing in “George Bailey” for every candidate on my midterm ballot then going home to respectfully avoid eye contact with my wife as we prepare to retire for the evening into our separate beds
