Computer Systems by David O'Hallaron and Randal Bryant is the best book about programming I've ever read and I can't recommend it enough to everyone who starts learning programming or anything about computers and tech. I should have read it a long time ago but I'm glad I'm doing it now.

- I like that computers just switch context between different processes quickly to make it look like they do them simultaneously, just like humans - yeah but supercomputers don't need to do it, finishing a task is faster than switched contexts - so supercomputers got cured from ADHD

was watching black mirror and decided to watch her (I watched it a long time ago and don't remember much). it's so good to watch it now when many people are addicted to talking to ai and using it as therapy and a friend.

I'm looking for a new house because we want to take in a stray cat, and our landlord doesn't want to allow a second animal, and today I saw a house in a location I really like, but the house wasn't any good. These viewings are upsetting.

spoilers Ginny and Georgia I'm disappointed in the last season of handmaid's tale, but I liked season 3 of Ginny and Georgia. The only thing that I find weird is Paul's behaviour, he kind of accepted Georgia before and then decided to divorce her.

All I have to say is that all landlords are cancer, even those who are just middle class people with buy to let mortgages.

I've spent 95 hours playing Witcher 3 (I finished the main game and one dlc) and it's probably my favourite game. I love when Polish studios make games because it's much closer to my sense of humour and how cursing and insulting someone is supposed to look (English is just too polite as a language)

I created a whole bunch of what people can do in a town in my d&d campaign, but the players decided to spend time milking a horse 😁

I can't stand matte displays and now everyone does except apple. And I really want to move to Linux but even framework that lets you choose the colour of your ports doesn't let you choose a matte display.

So… Starmer’s new angle was to burn welfare, trans people, and migrants, and now the super racist voters hate him even more, the mid racist voters hate him the same, and he’s lost half his own voters? Truly the sweet spot of ethics and tactics

Capitalism didn’t make your iPhone—exploited workers did. Labor makes everything, yet CEOs and shareholders get the profits. The ones who actually build, assemble, and design deserve the paycheck—not the ones sitting in boardrooms.

I've been living near the road for 2 years and I'm so tired of this noise, it's driving me insane. I don't know how people deal with it. I was so wrong in choosing this house.

I know my vibe on here is of a man incadescent with rage about politics, and I am that, but mostly I sit quietly drinking tea and talking about RPGs with my friends. I would love for that to be all I did, but in truth everything is politics. We must fight, and we must win. And it will never end.

"The Prime Minister will today announce an end to Britain’s failed experiment in open borders" on gov.uk sounds like fascism, it's opposed to be a neutral website with information, not a propaganda manifesto.

you know this feeling when you pick a new language and you create something with your code mixed with code generated by llms, code copied from stack overflow and some pieces from go by example and articles, stick it together and somehow it works 🤔

I need advice on where I can study biology as an undergrad without an EU passport for free or cheap if I learn the language? I was hoping to get the British indefinite leave to remain and study then, but if they choose to change the rules to make it 10 years to ILR I'm just too old to wait

Oh well I never heard from the university that I interviewed for yesterday. They told me they'd be back until this afternoon and they didn't and it's usually not a good sign.
