It’d be a cruel irony if Java was what we were left with.
Spent too long figuring out yes, I can replace my existing Debian server setup with FreeBSD *and* also figuring out that wanting to replace systemd because it’s too big a blob of responsibilities, with an OS that has the kernel & most of userland all in the one big blob… is kind of nuts.
Other hot takes: ZFS’s good. Jails are interesting. The BSD license is stupid, & I like having the kernel, init, build system, utils, & everything else made by different people.
Which is where I started. 🤷
We come in low out of the rising sun see

Don’t understand it, but don’t see it surviving:
“Oracle, as the corporate sponsor of the OpenJDK Community, is working to draft a full policy governing the use of generative AI tools in OpenJDK contributions. Oracle will propose that policy to the OpenJDK Governing Board in due course. Until that policy is in place, the Governing Board has approved this interim policy:
Contributions in the OpenJDK Community must not include content generated, in part or in full, by large language models…”
People are converting bloated websites into markdown. For the benefit of the AI.

No more World Cup. No more Expanse. And a cold. It’s sure all coming up Mikey.
30,000 US troops to go & Germany’s free.
Watching the last of the alien & predator separate & combined franchises. The only one I haven’t watched. AvP: Requiem. As & Ps in Small Town America. “Crested Butte.” Lolz. Couldn’t happen to nicer folks.
Over at the Aus, Greg Sheridan has his knickers in a knot. “What the Trump assassin’s manifesto reveals about the educated left is terrifying”.
OK, I’ll bite…
According to Greg, the manifesto “repeats mainstream left-liberal critiques of the Trump administration and of Trump as “pedophile, rapist and traitor”. These terms are grotesque. They arise from paranoid fantasies about Trump’s association with Jeffrey Epstein, immigration policies and military campaigns.”
Tooting from an undisclosed ballroom.
Cert problems are following me around.
Fix the other one & decide to play with Agate on FreeBSD.
There's a pkg, cool, that'll save me a ton of fiddling with config locations &... nope, doesn't like the certs I roll on the Mac I use for that.
Sighs in 'it worked on Debian'. (But wondering if it's an Agate change rather than an OS one..)
One night left to my own devices & I ran out of beer at 7:19pm. Go me.
Working away at the tech part while some other part of my brain works on figuring out what it is that’s actually bothering me.
I had somehow totally missed that async/await were back in Zig, I was too preoccupied with other stuff that day. 0.16, not just about weird spelling.
Yesterday all 6 seasons of The Expanse were on SBS. Now it’s just the 1st 3. WTF.
Probably bird flu. Or ebola. One of those.
Claude's had a name change on Github so my log search wasn't working
Claude
so
git log --all --grep="@anthropic"
And hey presto.
Prompted by finding Hammerspoon (a Lua scripting engine for the Mac) earlier this week. Alas they had their first Claude commit earlier this month. So, not them then.
A “sustained, cross-border attack”. Not one of those half arsed local jobs.

Oh I bet it was the stupid Apple TV showing me Amazon. Goddamnit.
3:30pm. Friday. Time for cert problems.
But of course.
*chokes on tea*
fdisk can’t modify gpt, it reads it & claims it can, but it can’t…
gdisk. That’s what went wrong with giux. One of the things. Maybe. *sigh*
Daylight savings, but for zero days.
Just took my Taiwan train pass out of my wallet.
Now I have the Seekers being dreary in my head. The car-ni-val is o-ver... :-/
“This would be serious for the leader of a major political party.”
Or the leader of the Liberal Party.
The dreaded steam driven leather clad lurgy.
