Me in 2008 looking back on listening to #SomaFM for 6 years, when there was going to be another 16. 😏

Last night I dreamt I jumped out of an airplane holding one of those old paratrooper toys. On landing, I ate it.

They kinda always did look tasty.

Still always making strange code

#if 0
#pysea.c
#polyglot-file
import sys
print ('Hello, world - Python\ngcc -o pysea', sys.argv[0])
#endif

#include
#define exit int main(int argc, char** argv)
#define quit { printf ("Hello, world - C.\npython3 %s.c\n", argv[0]); return 0; }

exit
quit

Hell yes man, they will have to take my og iPod Shuffle 1gb from my cold dead hands. Plus it's bootable!

It's impossible to choose. Maybe if we stipulate paintings only, or something. If Earth is burning down and I can only save one piece?

I think I'll burn to death trying to choose.

But as I lose consciousness I'll be thinking "man, I hope someone more decisive saved the Lascaux paintings."

Ever hear "X people die from Y every day"? I love that, it's easy to grasp. But I want to see all of those at once, a sort of "what do we die from?" in real-time. A way of grasping where priorities should be.

Thus, Deathwatch: another of my weird experiments on #CodePen

You gotta' hand it to Elon, $456 trillion dollars is a helluva return on an investment of $44 billion and a bit of chump change for an election. Now it's just a matter of liquidating the USA.

No wonder all the buyers are flocking to the auction.

Mostly true. But my Thinkst Canaries are unusually festive. They also do Halloween and New Years bling. :)
