It should not be this easy to find these kind of issues in any product people purportedly rely on for private messaging, which many pe...

Being crystal clear about the problem being solved and the chosen solution made it much easier to spring to action quickly.

I’ve been working on a new way to launch and manage processes in Emacs in my personal repo. It’s an alternative to shells. A bit like a notebook. It also partially serves the same need that Prodigy-mode does. The name is evocative of that video game Portal from 2007. It has a major mode, where M-! is rebound to Port...

Every software engineer uses a programming language, usually multiple. Few of us make programming languages. This makes sense, because the work we need to get done can typically be done just fine in the languages that exist. Those already have people making them better. Let's focus on the task at hand. But that mean...

April 21, 2021 I have a love-hate relationship with APLs. On one hand, they're unbelievably powerful in what they can do. On the other hand, they're absolutely awful in what they can't do. I always feel like I'm walking that thin line between brilliant and stupid. For those you who don't know APL is one of those arr...
