American weddings are just a scheme created by Big Kitchen Appliance to get people to buy Le Creuset Dutch ovens and espresso machines for each other.

Writing about a language I haven't actually used first-hand much always feels fraught with peril, but I think I have a better understanding of assignability in Go now and wanted to share: journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2023/10/19/doe…. Feel free to tell me what I got wrong. :)

It's been a while, but I finally got a new piece of music uploaded, the first part of a longer set I've been working on: youtu.be/Uz-bpeLmVGE

Look what showed up in the mail today!

Happy #jamuary! I don't know if synth jams using softsynths are supposed to count, but since I'm building the whole arrangement live, I'd like to think it fits the spirit: youtu.be/_W2LZeB6GLQ?si…

Niklaus Wirth was one of my heroes. Pascal was the second language I learned (after Apple BASIC). If you haven't already, look at any of the languages he designed, or read his writing. His sense of clarity and elegance inspires.

Hood Canal is not a canal. It's not even a channel which was sort of it's original name. I propose we start calling it what is: Hood Fjord. Maybe even Hjood Fjord.

I just closed more than half of the open issues in the dart formatter's issue tracker because the new rewritten formatter fixes them. \o/

Friendly reminder that I am on Mastadon (mastodon.social/@munificent) and Mastadon is totally great unlike this slow-burning dumpster fire.

Friendly periodic reminder that I am mostly on Mastodon these days (mastodon.social/@munificent), which is much less of a hellscape than Twitter.

My various websites (gameprogrammingpatterns.com, craftinginterpreters.com, and journal.stuffwithstuff.com) are down right now. My host says they are doing "emergency maintenance" (which seems like an oxymoron to me). With luck, they should be back up in about eight hours.

If you are trying to escape this hellscape, feel free to join me on Bluesky (bsky.app/profile/stuffw…) or Mastodon (mastodon.social/@munificent).
