Or, maybe you can’t wait to be scared by new films in the Conjuring, Black Phone, or Five Nights at Freddy’s franchises. Whatever the case, as usual, Hollywood tries to have something for everyone.

Making a font of my handwriting

Recently I’ve been on a small campaign to try to make my personal website more… personal. Little ways to make it obvious it’s mine and personal, not just another piece of the boring corporate dystopia that is most of the web these days. I don’t quite want to fully regress to the Geocities era and fill the screen with animated under construction GIFs, but I do want to capture some of that vibe.

The Day I Kissed Comment Culture Goodbye

It started out harmlessly, a comment on hacker news roughly 16 years ago. From there it expanded to reddit, substack, twitter. And it increased in frequency, from every few months to every week, peaking at several times a day. It became an addictive, productive habit—I would scan the headlines for a catchy title, quickly skim the piece, and then race to the comment section and type one out. Sometimes the comments were insightful or funny. At other times, curt or nitpicky. It was an exercise of

ESPN and Fox each announced new direct-to-consumer streaming services, and there are new skinny bundles from Fubo and Sling that provide most but not all of the channels

Poisoning Well 31st March 2025 One of the many pressing issues with Large Language Models (LLMs) is they are trained on content that isn’t theirs to consume. Since most of what they consume is on the open web, it’s difficult for authors to withhold consent without also depriving legitimate agents (AKA humans or “meat bags”) of information. Some well-meaning but naive developers have implored authors to instate robots.txt rules, intended to block LLM-associated crawlers. User-agent: GPTBot D

What if the programming industry’s decades-long obsession with type checking is solving the wrong problem entirely? What if our increasingly sophisticated type systems—from Haskell’s category theory to Rust’s borrow checker—are elaborate workarounds for fundamental architectural mistakes we’ve been making since the beginning?
