On Hokusai
I consider Hokusai the greatest artist of all time, because he contributed to the two most prominent genres in visual art - landscapes and porn.

Haskell
“Oh, in Haskell this app is just a one-liner!”
The one-liner:
app a b c d e= runMonadT <(@)> ( (LiftValue a b c) *!* stop) . \a -> d(a) $ e
Battling my ego
Battling my ego.
The stage is set.
I turn to it and say “It’s gonna hurt ME a lot more than it hurts YOU”.
Bash
I think that bash is so popular because it is so terrible language and hard to work with, that every time you make something work you feel like a wizard and your dopamine is to the roof
Timezones
“May you become an expert in time zones!” Ancient programmers curse

Elon and capitalism
People who read the Economist seem to be the embodiment of middle classs folks, who see themselves as “temporary-challenged billionaires” who deserve to be rich because they are smarter than everyone else. Like, they believe than one day Elon will come and appoint them as CEO, like a 14-year old who learns to play a guitar and thinks they’ll be Jimmie Hendix.
By the way, the way Elon acts provides for me an irrefutable, proof that capitalism is dead — if the world’s richest person cannot just use their money to enjoy themselves and instead prefers to continually make a fool of themself and be ridiculed by the whole world on a daily basis, then what’s the point of it all?
Old tech
Most people, after owning a laptop, or another piece of tech for more than 2 years:
“Yeah, this things is getting outdated, doesn’t support XYZ, I guess it’s time for a replacement…”
Me, after my 10-year laptop fails:
“THIS IS BULLSHIT!”
Mayday
- Hey, Captain is it just me, or is the airplane headed straight to this huge volcanic crater, full of hot lava?
- Yup, we will likely be all dead in a minute!
- OK, so will you try to maybe, you know, alter our course?
- I won’t, because that didn’t work out when the Russians tried doing it the 1940s.
The course leading to drowning in lava might not be a good course, but it is the best one out there!
Hard things in computer science
Finally got the final list of the three hard things in computer science:
- Naming artifacts
-
- Concurrent
- Off by one errors. data processing
What is capitalism about
And to think that people are fooled that capitalism is all about, hard work, entrepreneurship etc. Capitalism is about capital, folks - it’s there in the name.
Facts
I came to the world for the facts, but it turns out I can only have pictures of facts. This is some shit.
