Hi! I found Mastodon through a New Yorker article ("What it Takes to Put Your Phone Away").

I have a degree that uniquely qualifies me for precisely nothing. So, I am teaching myself to program for a chance at a real career (also for fun!).

Mastodon fits nicely into my desire for a world that will move away from systems optimizing for profit and toward systems that optimize for wellbeing. I think our economy and its metrics need updating.

I like art, tech, and science.

Hola mundo.

Great article about the GDPR. The person closes his FB and tries to get his data "back". So far it's been 5 months, since he started.

I'm really enjoying this video series about building a Gameboy emulator in browser using #rust / #WASM.

Imagine if you will a System Administrator who finds the needs of his System and Network dictating the parameters of his own life, is he still administering the system, or is it in fact administering him? Or just maybe he's been granted access to... The Twilight Zone

Hey did you know that it’s actually pretty easy to get a personal (prs.) or vendor (vnd.) Media Type?

Please stop using x-something. Please. Just register it.

@mgiagante @L1Cafe I use sendxmpp, it's an alternative to sendmail.

Still looking for a new job. Any leads on #rustlang work y'all?

@mgiagante @erikstl I prefer "managing" dotfiles with gnu stow (as "dumb" as possible)

Tonight I'm learning the amazing power of dotfiles and aliases.

WHY HAS NOBODY TOLD ME OF THIS BEFORE!?!

H.P. Lovecraft died in 1937. Nuclear weapons were first publicly used in 1945.

Imagine: Cthulhu emerges from the depths and then, instantly blown up with a salvo of gigaton-range nuclear missiles. Rather anticlimactic.

Most people think of a VPN connection as a simple proxy connection, and that's how they use it. But remember, when you make a VPN connection, you're actually connecting your network to their network. #networking #internet

Well, I think I've finished my "tiny ECS". Took a bunch of lessons I learned and produced something I hope will be useful to others even though I really just made it for myself.

Thoughts: Today was a great and productive day! In addition, I have read about the formatting of strings in Python:

The task 10-10 was simple, but I decided to make it a little more complicated. I am very satisfied with the result! 😎
