This week’s material filled up fast. It’s vacation season in the northern hemisphere, so let’s see what next week brings…
- “Anyway my point here is that all of crypto should be run entirely by tweens.” Look for the Utility Token section, though it’s all fun.
- How to calculate leap second variation for the year 3000. (via)
- Ooops, I guess we’re full-stack developers now. (via)
- Text size control in st.
- DLX400 typewriter as a Keyboard. Neat but it must be annoying; those aren’t great keyboards.
- Fast Software, the Best Software.
- “Don’t put it on GitHub“, something we all should know. (scroll down to last third)
- Creepy pumpkin. It doesn’t have to be a pumpkin; this could apply to all sorts of things!
- Roguelike Level Design Addendum: Static or Procedural? You’ve played both, I’m sure.
- An xargs lesson. (via)
- The Legacy of the Unix Wars is still around us. (also via)
- What I want out of my window manager.
- Emacs users are like Terry Pratchett’s Igors. (via)
- Slacking on security. I don’t think Slack is a healthy product to use.
- Dwarf Fortress will let dwarves pet animals and I’m sure that won’t backfire.
- Astronauts Falling on the Moon. No achievement so amazing you can’t trip and fall in the middle of it. (via)
- LGP-30 – A Drum Computer of Significance. I think the computer in The Story of Mel, mentioned here before. (via)
The LGP-30 was in the Story of Mel, but it wasn’t the machine the story revolves around.
