10 Political Terms With Curious Origins
The words we use in the context of politics reveal much of the history of how humans have attempted to govern themselves. Many originate from ancient Greece and Rome, where the first representative assemblies closely matching our own arose. The very word “politics” comes from the Greek polities, meaning “city, citizen.” The Romans gave us […]

I’m playing with ratterplatter again: It’s a toy that watches disk I/O and emulates the noise of a real hard disk. (Linux only.) It uses sound samples from one of my older disks.
I tried a different approach at estimating the disk activity and I think I finally got it right (after almost 10 years … 🤦).
Demo, booting a Windows 2000 VM: https://movq.de/v/1400544cc6/2kboot-ratterplatter-2.mp4
(For this purpose alone, I put a couple of mini speakers into my PC case, so that the noise comes from the right place: https://movq.de/v/a3b2dc0932/speakers.jpg)
The results aren’t too bad, but this thing can’t be super accurate due to the huge I/O caches that we have these days. For the video, I dropped the caches before booting Windows, otherwise you would have heard almost nothing.
FWIW, if you don’t know it yet, this is the equivalent for proper keyboard sound: https://github.com/zevv/bucklespring

Insider poll: The Democratic Party has ‘lost its way’
Holly Otterbein, Lisa Kashinsky, Brakkton Booker and Myah Ward, Staff Writers - Politico
_Stephan: I agree with this article and the poll it reports on. I think the Democratic Party is a disaster, and I don’t understand why its leaders do not seem to understand why they are failing. What I think the Democratic Party should be doing is putting forward leaders in their 30s and 40s, who are good public speakers who can … ⌘ Read more
US Coast Guard Academy Censors ‘Climate Change’ From Its Curriculum
Marianne Lavelle, Staff Writer - Inside Climate News

Here is the latest proof of what I am saying. If Trump remains President for the next four years, t … ⌘ Read more

Ontem voltei a pegar no Django depois de 10 anos para um side-project. É como se fosse um regresso a um lugar onde um dia se foi feliz.
Tem a sua personalidade e tal, mas continuo a adorar os seus pormenores e as suas escolhas sobre como deve funcionar uma framework web.
Também fiquei muito agradado de ver que muito pouco mudou desde há uma década no que toca à forma fundamental como o Django faz as coisas. Talvez isso não seja apreciado pela juventude habituada a ciclos de upgrade rápidos e drásticos, mas pra mim foi um grande alívio ver que não tenho de me atualizar muito para montar um pequeno projeto.

10 Male Characters Played by Women
Casting can be counterintuitive. Studios often hire male actors for female characters and vice versa. Such decisions aren’t that unusual, especially in this age of gender-swapping established stories. For better or worse, they’re a fairly common practice nowadays, meaning they no longer draw the widespread attention they once did. Ironically, it’s the less overt examples […]
