I wonder if I could bribe @steren.fr to expose exit codes on cloud run jobs 🤔
Decompress DEFLATE using only HTML5 Canvas retr0.id/stuff/canvas...
the go compiler is a little bit like a cat. stubborn but very food motivated and ultimately clueless to my machinations
The new json/v2 #golang stdlib package is still a proposal, but was merged yesterday behind a GOEXPERIMENT. Two ways to play with it: 'gotip' and the Go Playground. gotip: $ go install golang.org/dl/gotip@latest $ gotip download $ GOEXPERIMENT=jsonv2 gotip doc encoding/json/v2 Playground example:

I think the mathematicians use wikipedia as a way to prank normal people.
This post is so very good that I'm kinda mad. Very on-brand. Brad and Russ were already heroes of mine. I am still somehow surprised by the effort and absurdity of it all. Wow. Also I will be stealing the name "goonzeep" for a future project please nobody take this from me.

Remember the death march to add Google+ integrations into every Google product no matter what and how well that ended for everyone? Loving the gemini button on every single surface of gmail. Great job everyone.
There is so much to gzip. It's a perfect microcosm of the experience of Computering. Fractally complex and clever. Hamstrung by the limitations of computers at the time it was invented. Dramatic, backstabby origin story. Completely unused extension points. Both prescient and myopic in its design.
Briefly thought @forrestbrazeal.bsky.social was in Wicked as Doctor Nikidik, was disappointed by imdb.
RTL language computer friends: does the phrase "shift left" make sense in your head? Would it make more sense as "shift right"?
TIL go has LZ bitmaps in the garbage collector to track which fields of struct types are pointers.
mcyoung 🏳️🌈@mcy.gay · 2y agoive spent a while digging around go implementation reasons for one reason or another, and none of this crap is written down. so i wrote it down mcyoung.xyz/2024/12/12/g...
It should be illegal for wells fargo to call me and leave a message pretending something important has happened to get me to call them back so that they can try to sell me services. I used all my "make a phone call" emotional budget this quarter on that because I assumed something bad happened :(
Have been listening to an old podcast with @jamesmunns.com and @bcantrill.bsky.social and it is hilarious because they are basically just taking turns getting super excited about rust and safety to the point that they are accidentally screaming at each other.
Hey @steren.fr long time listener first time caller. I am using GCS volume mounts on Cloud Run and see a warning: > DirectPath is misconfigured. Please set the EnableDirectPath option along with the EnableDirectPathXds option. If y'all fixed that would things go faster? 🙏
I have a strong urge to organize all the source material (mostly blog posts) for opinions I hold because it would be easier to short-circuit discussions by just pointing to them directly instead of paraphrasing a bunch of them poorly but I'm worried that this would be off putting. Is this normal?
Today I suggested that we serve HTML over HTTP for our website frontend instead of using React and everyone laughed because they thought I was doing a bit. The frontend situation is so dire.
I wish there was something like a named pipe that allowed for random access (lseek and/or pread) instead of only FIFO without having to go all the way to FUSE. Is this a thing?
This will not surprise anyone but my enthusiasm for gzip is at an all time high since looking at github.com/mxmlnkn/rapi... It is so ridiculously clever. I am jealous that I did not come up with this myself. tl;dr speculatively decompressing anything that looks like DEFLATE goes brrrrrrrr

I have suddenly acquired many followers who seem like actual, real people, but I am an obscure container nerd. How did y'all find me? Am I on some kind of list or is bluesky just growing that rapidly?
Last December, @awsteele.com completely ruined me. I have been unable to think about anything but gzip for over 5 months now. I am sitting here reading research papers about novel gzip methods, wondering how it got to this point. I have never been nerd-sniped this hard in my entire life. God why.
