** My not so pragmatic guide to running background services on macOS **
I self host a lot of stuff — these days, mostly weird little utility scripts and toys that run in the background, but also some web apps like plex, calibre, and a suite of irc things. For a long time I ran such things on a VPS, but being incredibly cheap, and hardly ever leaving my house for realsies, during the height of the pandemic I brought everything on to an aged mac mini I keep on a shelf behind some books.

** Crinkly chip bags **
I usually read pretty fast. I’ve been intentionally reading Middlemarch slowly. Chapter by chapter. This forced restraint makes reading Middlemarch feel sort of religious in pace and intention.

I fell back down the type theory hole, and have once again thought to myself“what about Haskell?” and“what about algebraic data types?” These thoughts are questionable and my motivations dubious, but here I am again imagining tiny type carrying backpacks strapped to little guys — bees, beetles, and other crawlies.

Trump administration ‘looking at’ suspending habeas corpus, Stephen Miller says
Dan Mangan,  Reporter  -  CNBC

_Stephan: Habeas Corpus – literally in Latin, “you have the body” is a legal principle so old and revered it predates the creation of the United States in 1787.

‘The Fix Is In’: GOP Wants Poor People to Pay More for Medicaid to Fund Tax Cuts for Wealthy
Jake Johnson,    -  Common Dreams

_Stephan: Healthcare in the United States is the worst system, as well as the most expensive, in the developed world.

Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden is fired by Trump

_Stephan: The Library of Congress, whose beginnings trace back to Benjamin Franklin, is the largest library in the world and the most important. Despot Trump, as he has made clear, doesn’t like libraries because they are repositories of facts. And he also doesn’t want government agencies, whether the Chief of Naval Operations or the Lib … ⌘ Read more

10 Evil Religions in Fiction
Religion is a source of comfort and conscience. As people look to their respective gods for guidance, their conclusions inform their values, drive their actions, and give meaning to events. However, that pattern isn’t always a good thing, as some religious practices aren’t so righteous. An ignoble doctrine could be a cheap excuse to set […]

** Dad shrapnel **
In a flash I think I“get” liveliness in relation to programming. It’s talked so much about in the context of programming systems and languages — as being something they do or do not intrinsically have or support…but what if it’s actually about the process of doing the thing, and not inherent to the thing you do it with. A noun-gerund kinda dichotomy.
