New blog post: Polygons from paragraphs: turning a 3D model into HTML and CSS

https://hikari.noyu.me/blog/2023-01-10-polygons-from-paragraphs-3d-model-html-css.html

i changed the uhh “bio” on my website for the first time in six years https://hikari.noyu.me/

friendship ended with pronoun.is (it’s dead ;_;) and with “things”. now “finding beauty in the mundane” is my best friend

the way some pre-NeXT Apple APIs use FourCC codes is incredibly cute. instead of expressing an error as a meaningless number they cram a tiny cry for help into a 32-bit word… 'fmt?', 'wht?', 'nope' <3

help… I think I’ve gotten some rapid-acting COVID mutation 😰… my sinuses are going crazy and it hurts all over my mouth… yes, it started happening immediately after I began eating these spicy noodles from the Far East, clearly a new variant 😱

I once read a short story online that was taken from a computing magazine or similar from several decades ago. It was an elaborate joke about the ordinary meanings of the computing terms “Reverse Polish” and “[FORTH] translator”. does anyone have it bookmarked? (boosts appreciated)

my new year’s resolution is to read rust documentation offline (with cargo doc and rustup doc --std) rather than reflexively typing ⌘T!rust⮐ all the time

USERS: please add fat pointers for arrays to c
C COMMITTEE: thats too hard. here is a limited form of dependent typing which we think is good. Do you like this

hungarian notation is just name mangling for c programmers

but most of all, samy is my hero

bug-compatibility~
