why are you resubmitting something you submitted 78 days ago?


It's on the same site (I'm the creator of the site), but it's a totally separate blog post that I made this week


I was thinking earlier that a traditional spring-based pocket watch seems far more intricate to me than a wodge of glass and silicon. I know the phone is far more complex, but intricate? Nah.


Not the RSI I was expecting it to be.


I was expecting some intense clicking game that would give me carpal tunnel lol


I was thinking a clicker game where your mouse gets harder to move as you click.


All right, mate, let's hear your plan for securing the UK's south-eastern coastline.


If Daily Mail journalist can be there on time to photograph the boats, the authorities could spend less time in the pub, and make some arrests...


Take people back to France? Feels pretty damn obvious to me. I believe they even agreed something like that fairly recently.


Believe it or not, they actually already do this.


Most (non-western) countries do pretty well by making it clear that those who enter illegally will be arrested, charged, imprisoned, and then deported (at their own cost) rather than given free benefits.


Believe it or not, the UK already does this to people for whom there is no plausible asylum claim. The problem, if you want to think about it as such, is that the UK currently believes in treating potential asylum claimants as such rather than automatically labeling them as criminals.


This may be technically correct but only because the definition of "potentional asylum claimants" has been expanded to include pretty much everyone.


Sharks and tornados, and imagine if we can combine them!


Bad news, budget cuts mean we can afford a flounder with a paper fan. His name's Steven and he lives about twenty yards east of Lulworth Cover, but we reckon he's okay to commute to work.


It's called being insulated from the immediate consequences of their actions and hubris.


Oh boy, it's a big one.

Yup the "Update" in TFA is scary:

"Update — August 4, 2026, 13:37 CEST: At least 434 packages (across 1381 versions) have been compromised by the worm, with a combined total of over 2 billion monthly installs at the time of writing."

Lots of pain ahead.


the irony of the update being at 1337


2,523 and counting


Or even what they were regularly doing to grids of rainforest in Vietnam.


Why would no local cache on a laptop hold the IP address for the api endpoint if it's already open in the browser and being posted to?


I studied History of Art in school - long ago admittedly, but it was clearly helpful in identifying differences between eastern and western portraiture. It was, however, far less useful at helping me identify artifacts from Central Africa and Mesoamerica.

I used no external resources since that would defeat the purpose of this.

Given that, I placed in the 64th percentile based on a couple of really accurate matches (renaissance sculpture, fnar) and a lot that weren't terribly wrong.


Hmm. Hmmm. Hmm. HMMM. Hmm.

Yep! I know some of these words.
