Twitter goes nuts. Changes name to X. Reddit goes nuts. Reddit X. Are they even trying to hide it anymore?

I pay less in Costa Rica for 1G sync fiber than I pay for 1G up / 200 down on cable in the US. My ping time here to Miami, 1000 miles away, is about the same as my ping time to San Jose from my house in the US, a fraction of that dis

He's definitely destroying Twitter as we knew it. Whether something new will come from it remains to be seen. I wouldn't hold my breath, but I'm not going to claim to be psychic.

If you're going to have non-free licenses, why not also have at least one that doesn't allow re-sale? Commercial use is fine, but no Red Hat shit?

The gratuitous anti-Apple remark. Walled gardens are at least as old as video game consoles and I can run whatever I want on macOS even if I can’t on my phone. Somehow, whenever anyone spots a flaw in the FOSS model, it’s Apple’s fault. Thi

Geometry isn't the only application of pi. Nor is the geometric interpretation the only way to determine what is "fundamental." Why not use Darians? http://proper-pi-manifesto.com
