I'll be sad to see XSLT removed from browsers. Maybe I should write a JavaScript-based XSLT engine to polyfill it.

What thing blew your mind the most when you learned it, when it finally clicked? For me it was when I finally understood what Assembly really was and how it was different from other programming languages. That was the moment that connected software to the hardware for me. Before, it was just magic.

We should take the archive snapshot of the internet from early 2023 or so and publish that as the pre-AI slop era snapshot. Ideally, we would compress that down to a ROM chip that is just shipped with every computer made from now on.

Hmm. No Kings East Cobb county Georgia choose a potentially confusing place for their rally - Johnson Ferry & Roswell Rd - confusing because those roads intersect in two different places about 5.5mi apart. I know it's the one up North.

Decided to stay on the Sequoia / iOS 18 train, at least for now. I know it's futile to resist Tahoe / iOS 26, but I'll enjoy my pre-glass devices for probably as long as it is safe to do so.

Hats off to the attorneys working for parkmobile. Somehow, as a settlement to their data breach class action suit they get to basically legally spam all past users of their service to offer a 25 cent coupon code that you can use up to four times. Well, I guess they really learned a lesson here, huh?

Made a longest-truncatable-prime finder in C# and one in C. It's not surprising that the C version is faster, but 45mins vs 3.5hrs (4.67x)? I wonder if it is because of how UInt128 works vs __uint_128.

If you get paid by the mile or by the hour, you should use Apple Maps. If you actually want to get there on-time, maybe something else.
