I wish people would start plastering this bad boy all over the place. He haaaaaates it.

It’s even wilder when you take the concept of ridgidity and transfer of energy out of the equation and just think in terms of pure information propagating though a light cone. Rigidity itself is a function of information.

I tried something like this for my office chair. It was fine as a seat, but it raised my overall position on the chair vs the backrest and i ended up throwing out my back from the resulting offset. So, mind the chair you intend to use it on.

Ban anything with FDA approval.

As a web dev myself, I know the sheer amount of money that would have to go into monkey patching together all these disparate protocols and ancient APIs, plus the regulatory requirements, and that’s BEFORE worrying about consumer AND vendor adoption. The only reason to get into it is if the service is secondary to chasing a lucrative buyout before you get crushed by some multinational online retail cartel you never knew existed (but always suspected), or Google AEEs you.

It’s like a weaponized grade of whatever they made CSS in JS out of

Just read a thing about how persistent usernames may work better than actual ID. Of course, I don’t have a link, and I’m not finding anything on Google right now, but as someone who uses the same handle across multiple services, which makes my activity traceable, but not necessarily to my real identity, I definitely think there’s something to that.

I would love to see the test suite

On Castle, no less.
