Also, I think these are this year SIGBOVIK submissions:

Who at telegram android decided that having the "join" button near the OS back, home, app switch buttons is a good idea?

> turing complete filenames

oh, this reminded me of how I'm trying to write a #VimScript library that would allow load (and sometimes save) buffers with names like:

archive+zip://[https:%2F%2Fexample.com%2Farchive.zip]/path/inside/archive/file.txt

given two separate plugins for http(s) and for archives on top of it

discouraged IT terms
Why complementary to "master" is always "slave"? Why not "apprentice" or "pet"?

Another one. This one is probably less thought through

Also, what are these cover images Telegram Android shows? I have no idea where they come from

I hate when data entry & output in programs I use is locale-aware.
It's one of the reasons to switch the system to US locale. But the problem with US locale is the horiible date format. And I hate that all locales except "C" are named by language-country pairs. What if I despise all regional locales? Give me "ISO" locale, please. The only way I know to get the ISO time format on Linux C programs is to set LC_TIME=en_DK.UTF-8(. I mean, with enough desperation/motivation I could just learn/copypaste the locale dsl & edit system configs with it). The problem with that that JavaScript/Web doesn't know such locale so it falls back to the US time format. (I think I've seen a locale identified with another country that does this in web, but it doesn't work in C with default Linux locale database)

I was doing it several months ago & don't know when will I go back to it, but I've finally decided to push the code I have so far, altho all of it is subject to change:

Was it really scheduled for today?
I think I regularly make sure for it to be scheduled at least several months into the future.
Maybe I messed up the year in the picker?

our GPN22 talk about insane bash crimes is now up on media.ccc.de! If you missed it, here’s a link:

https://media.ccc.de/v/gpn22-244-bash-is-a-systems-programming-language

It features some really cool libraries I’ve been working on, multiple ones of which are really stretching the language thin. Also one REALLY cool project from @mei (no spoilers tho, go watch it)!

That's an interesting picture, if I've understood the author's idea

I've thought some more and maybe it's even better

What if static HTTP without encryption, but with signatures? It could benefit from non-authoritative caching proxies without being prone to active attacks performed by proxy operators.
