I imagine it emulates all the system calls. It sure would have been easier to copy bits from Linux for that. But you don't have to. Wine sure didn't.

I probably should go read the code and not guess.

I turn off biters and play on 100x research because it's calming.

I worked on a project that was open source and then not and now is. The commhnity is gone. Maybe it's just because we're older.

Take the win.

I mostly just use GitHub for work. I don't think the social media bits matter.

Except stars. I've been told investors use stars as a proxy for interest lately. I see how bots these make a lot of sense.

All this bots stuff reminds me of an off hand part of Anathem. They had this historical arms race of garbage spread on their internet. There's these monk folks who have been fighting it for generations. I thought it was sill years ago. Feels sane now.

I follow two people. I have no idea why I did that either.

147 people follow me. I have no idea why. I'm boring.

And yet Haymarket was in Chicago.

A government stipend to make public art or open source software or literature or whatever sounds pretty great. It's hard to see how we get there from here. But it'd be great.

France has something like it for artists I think.

 

I've always loved this list of sci-fi books. The 2000s web design compells me.

A while ago I tried to read the ones I hadn't. It was a lovely tour. My biggest surprise was enjoying Childhood's End.
