just like email is a way for other people to give you to-do list items, twitter is a way for other people to give you intrusive thoughts

a cognitohazard is a spike, a kinetic projectile, driven past interception systems deep into ones world-bubble, where it explodes into a million shards, fragments ripping apart well crafted links and flipping thought-parts into it's own crystal. it's a bubble burster.

they're not the same. a cognitohazard does damage to the person experiencing it, brainworms tend to wiggle their way in softly and pleasantly. "that's just how the world is", they whisper. "just human nature. it's okay" and then they make you hurt or neglect others

7/7 Turns out the object files produced by the CoreRT ahead of time compiler from 2020 can still be linked with the linker that shipped with Visual C++ 2.0 in 1994. So it's C# compiler -> CoreRT Compiler -> Linker -> Success.

1/7 Did you ever need to run a piece of C# code on Windows 3.11? Me neither, but I did it anyway. A thread.

It’s very funny to me that over the past ~15 years, internet libertarianism has moved from “copyright is obsolete, information wants to be free” to recreating copyright from first principles, except the copyright registry sets the planet on fire.

the amount of vitriol people put into alt text discussions under various pretenses makes me intensely uncomfortable

by now every time i see alt text mentioned, i end up thinking how much some of the people i know want to hurt others for the way they express themselves
