В Кентах

vkentax.ru/help.php?page=about

Ещё один клон старого ВК. Мне дали доступ к какому-то аккаунту. Автор проекта заметил, что я в сети, и начал со мной разговор. Обсудили чуток, прикольно. Пожелал ему удачи и попросил сделать RSS-ленту, чтобы я подписаться мог.

One year of solo dev, wrapping up the grant-funded work @ marginalia.nu

www.marginalia.nu/log/a_107_nlnext

A year ago, Marginalia Search's developer received a grant, so he walked out of the office and never came back, and he still has more money funded. I don't think I would want to work like that forever, but working on my own projects like that for some months — sounds like a dream.

Гайд, как правильно писать сообщения для коммитов. О важности упоминания не просто того, что делает изменение, а зачем оно это делает. Очень мудро.

Documents Are the Wrong Metaphor

screensresearchhypertext.com?stackedPages=/Documents-Are-the-Wrong-Metaphor

So the author says. They say, the right metaphor is songs! This is non-sensical, documents are the right metaphor, and we should do our best to preserve it.

The author of the website claims to know a bit about hypertext, and they do, but look at this URL! How to fix it? UPD. From the computer I managed to close the extra tabs on the page which were not visible on the phone and fix the URL.

research!rsc: Coroutines for Go

research.swtch.com/coro

Goroutines are not coroutines! I thought it was a nice pun! It's not!

Russ walks us over the concept of coroutines in other languages and then implements them in Go using goroutines.

Gotta read more thoroughly. I don't really see why we need them.

P. S. Loving how coroutine is shortened to coro. It's how the Francophones shorten laboratorie or whatever to just labo. Adolescent becomes ado. Cool French style!

Computers are an inherently oppressive technology

www.devever.net/~hl/ruthlessness

This may seem a strange heading for someone whose career is in computers, yet I feel that this article has been a lifetime in the making. It is the product of intuitive observations and things that have stood out to me, even as a child, who even then could sense the sinister side of the most banal of technologies.
