@Lady yeah it was surprisingly alright. i find his interviews a bit grating but i enjoyed it overall. also watched the following episode on government contracting and similarly enjoyed it

i have finally joined the instance theme for the month

javascript 

@Lady i suppose that makes sense

javascript 

«a. NOTE: Arrow functions never have an arguments object.»
huh, i did not know this

@Lady nobody wants their posts to get a lot of notes on tumblr (clones). big downside of making tumblr clones

security vulnerabilities 

yo if y'all use Matrix with the Element client (or any other client implemented using the same libraries), y'all should update.

nebuchadnezzar-megolm.github.i and matrix.org/blog/2022/09/28/upg describe some vulnerabilities that could be exploited by a malicious homeserver (some in the protocol itself, some just in Element) and the fixes (or, for the protocol issues that haven't yet been fixed, how users can mitigate them)

@aescling assuming HashMap, that shouldn't be the difference: its hash code includes both keys and values. Also put calculates the hash of the key well before making any changes to the HashMap.

Tho it seems like whenever a resize triggers it will stack overflow for both the key and value cases for that reason.

also it would be impossible to reliably actually get a HashMap out of itself (since the hash it'll be stored under won't be true once it's stored).

when i try to read anti-oedipus i come away with a clearer idea of what they're trying to say than when i read wikipedia or some random blog trying to explain a three-act structure

i feel like every once in a while i get curious about, like dramatic/narrative structure and briefly look into things like N-act structures and every time find every explanation i find of them incomprehensible.

@aescling @Satsuma the distinction i think i would draw is that dish rags are for cleaning things and dish towels are for drying things. although currently i use a sponge for the former and let everything but knives air dry so i don't really routinely use either word

exercise, body stuff 

gotta say my fave thing about exercise is having newly observable muscles.

there are muscles in my thighs and one could clearly see them in places when i am just like, standing up. it's neat

@Lady i'm currently reading a Michael Moorcock novel that has a fair bit of kinky royal sex (involving AU Elizabeth I). though i assume he's not exactly a fan

@pan it is p common i think. though sometimes with connotations of being especially tired or sleepy beforehand?
