american media is so fucked sometimes. the story can't be "america on the brink of historic moment", it has to be "bad guys running out of time to stop our hero!"

here's a free better headline: Unexpectly Broad Support for Reform Sweeps Berne Into Massive Lead

"did you just tell me to go fuck myself?" "i believe i did, bob"

my jaw just hit the floor... i was watching a video about a disk emulator for the apple ii (“floppy emu”) and they are *clearly* using my tom thumb font!

WEEK MADE! 😁

(cough) i’m all for a good curmudgeonly rant, but C has been able to do this since C99, which is now old enough to drink. are you compiling this on a pdp11? https://mastodon.technology/media/cre_cvJSCN7W4z_bMaw

never heard of lmdb before! seems to be a faster version of flat-file b+tree, similar to the old "sleepycat" db... https://github.com/LMDB/lmdb

this bad use of "C244" for the constant `(61 << 2)` is actually *wrong*.

the joke-named constants are masking the fact that the `<` comparison is supposed to be for 2**8, 2**16, and 2**24.

the code, ironically, would be much clearer if `(61 << 2)` and `(1 << 8)` were written inline 🤦‍♂️

whyyyyyyyyyy
