  • Random Thought: I wonder how many of the people calling for “Edit” buttons on Tweets, are also into Functional Programming?

    2021/01/04 09:18:34 GMT

    I look at Twitter today, and think: having an Edit button would be a real hassle; not least the amount of retrospective changes that would happen to tweets after they go viral and are embedded into so many web-pages. Immutability for the win. And yes, you could work around this with “versioned tweets”, etc, but…

    AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s made-up claims of fake Georgia votes https://apnews.com/article/407d934b6649a4e4059ec28c4cb70512 Trump appears to be referring to large numbers of votes that were tabulated in the early hours of Wednesday morning after Election Day and later. The arrival of those votes was not mysterious, but expected, because many of Georgia’s 159 counties had large stacks…

    It’s not bad advice, in as much as it promotes length of passphrases and therefore entropy; but it is structured which is regrettable…

  • The thing that vexes me is that @realDonaldTrump has likely done worse, far worse, on tape, repeatedly in the past 4 years; but only with the clock at less than 20 days is it being leaked & called-out by officials. #DonaldTrump #TrumpTapes

  • Perspective on Encryption Backdoors and Future Safety

    2021/01/03 23:15:41 GMT

The only unclear area is how much water to soak it in, and how much additional to add (if any) during cooking. At the moment I am trying 3:1 by mass (i.e. 120g Oats, 360g Water) but…
