  • Nonprofits can “own” for-profits.

    One of the saner reasons for this structure is that the non-profit owns the things the for-profit works on. If the for-profit goes under, all things are still owned by the non-profit, so some large tech company can’t swoop in and yoink anything available.

    This includes any and all data generated by the for-profit, which means your data is “safe”.






  • Here’s what I remember from Haskell (around 2018):

    I love the language, but hate the tooling.

    Used it for Uni (did a minor where I learned Haskell, recursion, parsing and regex - probably the most information dense part of school I’ve ever had. Half a year of minor also burned me out, so I never went for my masters; I’m OK with my Bachelors :D ), but never felt like picking it back up.



  • These claims sound like fantastical conspiracy theory, but they are not. They are proof of conspiracy

    That’s not how claims work, buddy.

    Lastly, we string these major discoveries together: Cryptocurrency is an economic doomsday device; our government is a secret kleptocracy; The Simpsons exists to brainwash us. From there, the only research we need is critical thinking and we’re able to piece together the true story of our circumstances.

    Wait, I thought we were supposed to use that all throughout, not at the very end!?

    TL;DR Yeah, the guy clearly had a screw loose. Jumping from unfounded (conspiracy) theory to another. At least he was not a Nazi, I guess - he hated everyone* equally.

    * everyone being “the government”, “Crypo-anything”, even a few billionaires!










  • I unironically prefer apt over pacman, simply because my monkeybrain got addicted to running pacman -S (that was how to update, right?) and I dropped in productivity. apt is just “nah fam, there’s nothing new for you” most days, which gives me the quiet time I want and need.

    I ran Manjaro BTW. It was nice while it lasted, but Debian is my new friend now.


  • Probably not often, but as a Debian user, it’s a PITA to get back to where I was before I fucked up my system. Nix(OS) sounds like a future investment to me, just in case I ever fuck up and need to get back to where I was ASAP. Been there once already and it was NOT fun.

    That was from a professional standpoint BTW, privately I’m still a dirty Windows pleb, because that’s what I’m most familiar with.

    PS: I’m already using a dotfiles repo, which already saves me a ton of time in settings things up.
