idk the whole fixed point thing in Doctor Who is sometimes interesting but oftentimes it feels like a lazy cop out. like "uhh shit we didn't think this through you can't change this event cause....it's fixed or something." it just feels so transparently like a writing device not something that makes sense in the world. this is especially true because iirc the Doctor never really explains it or goes into detail about what it means and why.however, the episode The Waters of Mars is I think the most interesting example of fixed points because it shows that even when the doctor says fuck it and thinks he's better than them, he's proven wrong. so they're some power bigger than him. I just wish it wasn't a power cearly invented for the writers to use as an escape hatch

C# is nice but it's microslop and it's getting worse from more AI generated code (it's a spectrum ofc but they're going towards the more slop than handwritten code route). Go is too minimalist for my liking and the community is really elitist. Typescript/node is also going full slop with every major library having three AI bots checking every commit and Claude written commits and stuff. afhhhahfhehrhehehe I just want a good web languageI've asked before but idk what do y'all think? rust isnt off the table but it feels a bit immature and low level for backend work

so many jobs around me are C++ embedded and they seem less AI-pilled

I've been using Linux for literally 14 years. it's become a core facet of my personality for better and for worse. I used to talk people's ears off about open source.it's disheartening seeing how hostile the open source and especially wayland communities are to discussions of accessibility. someone discussing an issue is not an invitation to say "PRs are welcome :)" when it's something this critical. I agree we shouldn't berate volunteers and demand things of random people but the thing is, Linux the days isnt just being made by random people. massive corporations like Red Hat are deeply involved in the development of the Linux desktop. these are paid engineers. We absolutely can and must demand they take accessibility seriously.it's also really disheartening seeing parts of the Linux community embrace generative AI. we used to have a spine. we used to believe in the GPL. now we're putting our brains and souls up for sale to evil (redundant) corporations so they can sell our skills back to us at a premium. it's an inherently destructive technology as long as capitalism exists. I don't wanna hear about "oh well in some hypothetical paradise world it would be fine" becaude we don't fucking live there. God we don't.I'm starting to lose faith in Linux and open source more broadly and that hurts. hell, I'm Xenia kin. and it hurts to see it ruined. and yes I'll play this card: mostly ruined by straight white men.

I get it for convenience, but I think a lot of things got worse when we started insisting every portable device be shoved into the smartphone instead of dedicated devices

Colonialism never ended. the US is still an imperialist empire illegally occupying indigenous land. there will be no justice on this land until the so-called "United States of America" is no more and sovereignty is returned to the many peoples who called this place home.I don't wanna hear white liberals make up bullshit about how "well that was in the past" or "I stand for the values and mission of this country." You have no idea how disgusting and vile that sounds. How fucking disrespectful and callous it is.

within my lifetime the United States has destroyed the site of one of the major villages of my people. In my fucking lifetime. it's buried under a fucking Catholic high school now. Fuck the USAFuck the Catholic ChurchFuck the spineless liberals who refuse to sign on to land back because they think they can "reform" this country. Fuck your reform and fuck your loyalty to this evil empire.

looking into embedded stuff is making me more hopeful about computing. there's some AI but way less and way more people actually doing shit
