the new heart I've been growing in my garden is at a strange and delicate stage of development

One of the cool things about being a solo developer is that your code doesn't need to be understandable to other people. But watch out!

my overheating computer is better than physical affection because at least my computer doesn't complain that my hands are cold

we need more dials and knobs and levers again. this world is lacking in dials and knobs and levers. it's one of our biggest issues.

The Happy99 worm, also known as Ska or i-Worm, was a worm for Windows, appearing in 1999. The worm would display a gif of exploding fireworks in a window titled “Happy New Year 1999!″. This was the first worm known to spread via e-mail and usenet. Other than attaching itself to the user’s computer, this worm did no damage.

#happy new year from me and cd!

okay if you want to see what was on the files of that old girl before i erase them to make my own, look here!

so recently when i was out perusing the local thrift store i found an alphasmart 3000 for literally ten dollars and it gave me so much nostalgia (i used to have to use them in school!!) it basically considered itself a necessary expense. of course as soon as i got it i plugged it in at the library to see if there were still files, and there WERE, in ALL EIGHT FILE SLOTS. oh it was my lucky day. i'll post in a second the text from them. the better (? perhaps equally good) thing was when i opened her up to replace the corroded rechargeable battery (who sells these things to a secondhand store without taking that out these days???) i found THIS on her...

(a photo of the innards of an alphasmart 3000, which is a word processor. the artwork of the PCB, besides the usual layout, has a big smiley face and the text, "Rise and Shout the AlphaSmart's Out!!! Designed by Joe Barrus and Brad Daw")

isn't that amazing??? the files on it are pretty amazing too - they're like the answers to the most 90's-early aughts high school history (?? social studies?) ever.

the command line feels so personal... like how some people say when they pray they're talking directly to god but instead I'm talking directly to the computer
