I was playing around with Hercules, and for that I use x3270 which is an IBM mainframe terminal emulator. It installs a custom font, which is (drumroll) EBCDIC!
This is proven by starting "xterm -font 3270" which gives gives me an xterm with the same issue.
In StumpWM when starting, it tries to open a font called "9x15". If that font doesn't exist, it gets all fonts and uses the first one. In my case, that happens to be "3270" (presumably since it starts with a digit). Fun issue. 🙂
Eduardo Galeano: I don't believe in charity. I believe in solidarity. Charity is so vertical. It goes from the top to the bottom. Solidarity is horizontal. It respects the other person. I have a lot to learn from other people.

I think my personal best moment at this conference was when I told a room of academics with a straight face that the Pixar Cars franchise depicts a dystopian society of self-driving cars driven mad after murdering all humans, wandering a wasteland earth searching for meaning
ludum dare theme sucks, imo. "your life is currency" - soooo do I make a game about working an office job until you die or what?
Dear Ruby devs and game devs. I have a crazy announcement I want to share. Please boost.
Last week I released A Dark Room to the Nintendo Switch. Within the game, I also shipped a Ruby interpreter and a code editor as an Easter Egg.
*This Easter Egg effectively turns every consumer spec-ed Nintendo Switch into a Ruby Machine.*
1. Download A Dark Room from the US/EU.
2. Connect a USB keyboard and press the “~” key.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions.
Recently started using # 💭: ... comments for alternative implementations inside the code of the PR. Not sure how I feel about it. It is meta-data so it doesn't belong in the diff but it frees me from remembering to add inline annotations when submitting the PR.
@PuercoPop Also kudos go to rme for managing the whole thing from the maintenance point of view, and to Matt Kaufmann for testing the changes against ACL2 that he helps maintain.
@PuercoPop It's not just me - pfdietz also did his share of work by extending https://github.com/phoe/package-local-nicknames-tests to help test implementations in general.
Kudos to @phoe for their work implementing package-local nicknames for CCL https://github.com/Clozure/ccl/pull/188 #lisp
Once upon a time, FOSS enthusiasts were so concerned about Microsoft, that they recommended everyone use GMail and Google Apps.
Today the same crowd hates Google, so they recommend $SERVICE instead...
As long as $SERVICE is a provider in the cloud, on somebody else's computer, I'm shaking my head.
Many of the things being recommended are even more proprietary and locked-down than Google's stuff is!
Fighting monopolies is good. But don't lie to yourself that this helps software freedom.
Idea for how to set up your own personal pastebin:
1. Make /var/www/pastes/ on server.
2. Points paste.yourdomain.com at server.
3. Have nginx serve content of /var/www/pastes/.
4. alias paste=$'ssh paste.yourdomain.com \'cat > paste && mv paste /var/www/pastes/`sha1sum paste | cut -d" " -f1`\''
That's it that's the pastebin.
Server run by the main developers of the project 
It is not focused on any particular niche interest - everyone is welcome as long as you follow our code of conduct!
