people will really say “when programming, you will spend most of your time reading code, not writing it” and then follow that with “in vim, your fingers never have to leave the keyboard” and not see any problem with it

this is basically just a genericizing of the makefile rules that i use to build vocab.ladys.computer (here: <https://git.ladys.computer/Vocab/blob/7020828282e41281d76e7a578f97d123e00d7b05:/GNUmakefile>), because i’ve decided that that pattern is likely actually useful in a lot of places

it sure won’t be found in developing a third, shittier [networked technology] that you think people will find “easier to use”

my [networked technology] take has always been that the only people who have to use [networked technology] should be the people who want to use [networked technology] and are willing to learn how to use [networked technology]

we have a problem right now where lots of people have to use [networked technology] who don’t want to, but the solution to that problem won’t be found in [networked technology] improvements

“fundamentally the problem with computers is that if you want to have control over your experience then you have to learn how to use a computer”

ok well, if you print out a JPEG of a page of text, surely that is still an image then?

you can get out of this one real easily with <doi:10.4242/BalisageVol5.Renear01>, if you¦re a coward

is a statistic a document?

would you rather date someone cute who makes you anxious or someone you feel comfortable calling out every time they’re being an asshole

honestly in 2024 i don’t trust anything that doesn’t operate at a loss

this is in part due to the fact that journalism as an industry has taken a big nosedive
