we need to reclaim programming as something for everyone

we need to reclaim it as a thing to use for fun and as a personal tool, instead of something you learn for careers to impress corporations

computer programming should be a place where misogyny, sexism, corporations, and capitalism don't belong

Why is fsnotify.v1 such a cursed package.

I close the book with a sigh. It seemed promising, but disappointingly had paradoxes in its time travel premise. I pick up my unwinder, to get the time I wasted on the book back.

I pick up a book. This one seems promising.

There are no acceptable targets for body shaming. You'll always cause collateral damage against others with that body type

I today ended a conversation at work with: "I'm about to try to explain monads, so I'm cutting myself off as I've gone too far."

Accessibility gripe 

My biggest wish is that other people in tech would just accept that I'm trapped on Apple products probably forever, because of accessible touch and not mock my phone every time I pull it out. :P

I've transitioned back to neovim at work over VSCode and I've forgotten the places the VSCode vim plugin was letting me down. :P

Parents: are your kids exchanging vi keymaps?

wtf: one word forward, then to the first 'f'

LOL: insert a new line with a single 'L' just above bottom of screen.

fml: move to one character past the next 'm'

tbh: move to two characters before the next 'b'

dtf: delete to 'f'

Venting 

I'm so like, intensely unhappy with how I look. Like early in my transition I was constantly moving towards what I want to look like. I posted selfies all the time, I had self-esteem for the first time in my life and now I don't do any of that anymore. I found a safe place appearance wise and I can't escape, as I don't know what to do. All I know is I don't dress feminine enough, I don't like my hair. I don't like my makeup. I don't like anything, and I have no real idea on what I would like. I'm frustrated and I'm totally lost on what to do.

Since I burned out of twitter my feed has become all random cute animal picture retweets.

I am fine with this.

I'm learning morse atm, and I just realized that means I have a baud rate.

"Does your face recog work at night?"
"At night you need infrared, and cross-match to normal photos. It's less reliable. We have a new system with silent autonomous drones, capturing hi-res 3D models using sonar."
"You've made cyborg bats?"
"Only need a non-trademarked name."
