software tinkerer and aspiring rationalist. transhumanist and alterhuman

I try to be very careful about CWing things. sometimes I make mistakes but I want to make my posts as safe to read as possible

I sometimes post NSFW/kinky/lewd things behind CWs. this should go without saying but if you're a minor please do not interact with anything lewd/NSFW that I post

I have very limited energy and am very shy so it might take me a long time to reply to messages sometimes, or I might not be able to reply at all. this is kind of an "output only" account for the most part, but I'm hopeful that I can change that over time

I sometimes use curly braces to {clearly show where a grammatical phrase begins and ends}, like that. you can think of them like parenthesis in code or math, except they operate on grammar instead

I’m afraid of folks who can look at a FOSS project’s codebase and come away with any understanding of the horrors that lie within

the bigger a programming project gets, the more directories deep the actual code gets buried

small hobby project: put all the code at the top-level directory

medium hobby project: maybe put some of it in a lib/ or common/ directory

large hobby project: all of the code should go in a package-name/ directory

serious FOSS project: all of the code is in src/main/docker-0/include/rust/lib/java/package-name/.pylintrc/

I keep randomly thinking “they should make a Lisp with the semantics of Lua, since Lisp is syntactically elegant and Lua is semantically elegant”

and then I have to remind myself that Fennel does exist actually and it’s pretty nice

@0x57e11a I hate luarocks so much T_T I totally agree with it that Lua is amazing - I love how elegantly it’s able to encapsulate all kinds of useful functionality in just a few concepts, like tables and metamethods. and I find it so beautiful that the require() function just runs an entire file like it’s a function, and returns whatever it returns. and the distinction between table.function() and table:function() is so elegant to me - I love it

but yeah I’ve had such a difficult time getting luarocks to work basically at all, and there’s so little help available on using it. plus even getting Lua to run on Windows can be kind of a nightmare - especially since it asks you to manually set environment variables that aren’t properly/fully explained anywhere that I could find

sufficiently advanced rules lawyering is indistinguishable from either esoteric math or philosophy depending on how crunchy the system is

@ivmirx this. This is a main mechanism of white women doing damage, like voting for Trump or calling the cops on Black birdwatchers.

The racist patriarchy holds that we are by definition harmless and innocent, and a lot of ww believe this about themselves.
It removes any need for self-reflection or consideration of relative privilege.

@fargate @marisadoom it really sucks that short characters, or characters with small breasts, or both, have become such a taboo. I hope that you’re able to post your commission! and that nobody tries to say that he’s underage, because that would be so gross

top quarks imply the existence of some type of “bottom” quark

@marisadoom that would be such a frustrating reason but honestly that does sound plausible. and speaking of which I hope the world grows out of that attitude in the next few years lol

one of these days I might go digging to find some lewd games that I’ll like, but unfortunately even seeing screenshots of Very Exaggerated Bodies gives me a little bit of psychic damage which is why I haven’t done that too much yet

also I’m just very jaded by what I can find on HypnoHub so I feel like I’ll be very picky about lewd games anyway - even if they aren’t Like This

I know I’ve complained about this before but idk I find it so baffling. like if 50% of them were like this then whatever. if 80% of them were like this then I guess big boobs are just really popular with the demographic that plays lewd games

but it’s honestly closer to 100%. nearly all of them are Like This and that doesn’t make any sense to me. surely I’m not the only one who feels uncomfortable looking at such exaggerated bodies

@kit I’m ngl if I had more control over what I ate I would probably be vegan already. genuinely, meat is super gross to me and pretty much anything that’s considered a meat substitute (beyond beef, tofu, seitan, etc.) is way better - especially in terms of texture

meat is lowkey so gross

going vegan because I’m too autistic to be eating gristle and it also just tastes kinda bad compared to meat substitutes. no other reason

I find it funny seeing comments about “girl, you didn’t have to put all that in the title!” referring to me pointing out being a lgbtq+ dragon girl for my streams. Like…

A) folks always say to set yourself apart from others, be yourself, stand out, all that jazz and…
B) it feels like sneaky admission that all they want is for me to be quiet, stop being so visible, which is sad.

If anything I feel kinda emboldened to add more to the titles because of it silvervale_giggles

@dragonarchitect I feel this so much. I’ve been watching my family’s dogs while they were away for two weeks and this has been a nightmare for many reasons, but one of them is that one of the dogs has separation anxiety which gets worse the longer they’re gone, and causes him to bark for hours and hours and hours and there is literally nothing I can do to get him to stop. and I know because I’ve tried everything

thankfully they just got home late yesterday, and I’m never going to do this for them again

apparently wolves don’t bark - they quietly make little “chuff” noises instead - puffing air out of their mouths. because they don’t want to draw hostile attention to themselves, but they do want to alert their pack that there’s a dangerous animal nearby. but dogs were deliberately bred to bark loudly instead, so that they could be used as guard dogs. and now we have incessant barking everywhere and it is miserable
