I am so fucking tired arguing with people telling me I should be using LLMs, and that they are better than me for my refusal of using LLMs.

Fuck you for negating my decades of experience and care for the craft. Fuck you for claiming I cannot and do not represent people who were perfectly capable of delivering value rapidly prior to LLMs. Fuck you for assuming my abilities. Fuck you for your theft. Fuck you for making work a living fucking nightmare.

Go to hell fucking assholes.

holy fucking shit it worked

figured, may as well have @catsalad on this instance too, to help out with their hegemony and all

chat, is there some client/server/protocol implementation (preferably lightweight) out there that allows one access to directories of information with composable schemas? have some crazy ideas like, replacing big cloud offerings like Azure AD, for keeping track of people, departments, and other resources as my needs evolve

the only circular economy that's not completely fraudulent is the one where trans people are passing the same $12 around over and over again

dudes will see this and say "hell yeah"

Is it time to get NetInfo and NFS set up on the Power Mac G4 Cube and set the NeXTstation Turbo Color to access it? Probably

Happy #InternationalDayOfLaTeX everybody!

you know what? fuck you *does a Fast Fourier Transform on your profile pic, plays it back to a bird, that bird sings back its own impression of your profile pic, does an inverse FFT on the bird's song and shows you the PNG of your profile pic*

whoever this is, show yourselves to be venerated

(might max out my NeXTstation's DSP RAM to play some goddamned MP3s)

don't stop with Liquid Glass. bring it back you cowards #WWDC

this is my young son Killdozer

Has anyone in the US ever made long distance friends and traveled to meet somebody you met on Fedi?

i fucking hate living in this hell country

Happy Pride, bitches

i guess not that it technically couldn't before, just, all needing to reliably iron out all the nitpicky little contracts around:

• casting to nil
• preventing casting FROM nil
• what sacred forms should leave things on stack at return; rules around evaluating bodies of expressions

semantically things were sound, save for that last mile, but now that is no longer a problem

wellp, my rinky dink language can do geodesic maths now

i will not be accepting prisoners at this time

The bread and butter of the NeXTstation remake is going to be an NXP ColdFire chip with some Mach hacks to trap exceptions for missing 68k instructions, leaving the entirety of a modest FPGA (Cyclone V probably) to the DSP, RAM"DAC", SCSI, Ethernet, audio controllers, etc.

The NeXTdimension-like board though? That might be more immediately actionable.

I do believe this is the year I reverse engineer the NeXTstation Color and NeXTdimension board in earnest to implement hardware remakes.

• The i860 alone would be prohibitively time consuming for me to do an HDL core for, so a 1:1 NeXTdimension clone is out of the question. OpenStep 4.2 drivers for something bespoke made with commodity hardware? Much more feasible.

• I could possibly implement an expanded Bt463 RAM"DAC" with 24-bit truecolour and 8-bit alpha channel with some driver tweaks.
