2026 is a semiprime, meaning that it's cryptographically secure to use it as your ATM PIN since computers can't easily factor it.

Genuine appreciation for Rob Pike. Mostly because of the work he's done for computing, but also because of this entirely justified response.
Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.

Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

So apparently "the user invoked undefined behavior" is not an excuse for doing whatever you want as a compiler writer. Does anyone know how to get 2nd degree murder charges dropped?

On the cosmic scale of things, all whitespace is insignificant. So why is Python complaining?

I'm personally a fan of this image, which gives us a raw look at all the vibrant colors of a celestial body. It shows us a hopeful future where we all have the freedom to run into an asteroid at 6.6 km/s

This has always been one of my favorite space photos. It's not as beautiful as some others, but it's simultaneously alien and familiar. And the effort to take this photo was monumental.

Hopefully the Dragonfly probe can give us plenty more of these :)

Formal verification is basically just "@rocq is this true?"

They say Rocq functions are total and so always will produce a value, but if I rip the CPU out of the socket during program execution I don't get anything. Curious.

Really Haskell? You call this a `gets` function? Where's the utter lack of bounds checks? The security holes caused by buffer overflows? The docs don't even warn me never to use this function! Until this lack of bug is fixed, I will be forced to continue using C.

apartment complex? what are you gonna do, compute its cohomology sequence?

does auto insurance cover md5 collisions? asking for a friend.

When Haskell defers computations until needed it's a "revolutionary programming paradigm" and it "streamlines optimization", but when I do it I "need to properly withhold my federal taxes"? smh my head.

Why hasn't LLVM eliminated Toys R Us yet? It's a dead store.

I have a banger idea for a post but I don't want anyone stealing it so I'm just gonna post the SHA-256 hash instead:
