AI Training Shouldn't Erase Authorship

In a world of infinite automation and infinite surveillance, survival is going to depend on being the least boring person. Over my career I've written and attached my name to thousands of public source code files. I know they are being scraped from the web and used to train AIs. But if I ask something like Claude, "what sort of code has Justine Tunney wrote?"...

So you want to compete with or replace open source

We are living through an interesting moment in source-available software.1 The open source movement has always had, and continues to have, a solid grounding in grassroots programmers building tools for themselves and forming communities around them. Some looming giants brought on large sums of money – Linux, Mozilla, Apache, and so on – and other giants made do without, like GNU, but for the most part if anyone thought about open source 15 years ago they were mostly thinking about grassroots communities who built software together for fun. With the rise of GitHub and in particular the explosion of web development as an open platform, commercial stakeholders in...

text coordinate systems

Interesting discussion of some of the subtleties which come up when writing code to display and manipulate text:

Much of this echoes Finseth's classic book on implementing emacs-style editors, but with updates to reflect our Unicoded world.
(Many people will avoid dealing with these issues by simply dropping in whatever text widget their favorite library provides, but I enjoy cooking from scratch.)

Однажды китайский ученый Ли Хунь Янь обнаружил некоторую незначительную, однако, существенно отличающуюся от фона корреляцию между количеством псилоцибина потребляемого корфуцианскими медузами и характером передвижения оных по стенкам четырехсотлитровго шарообразного аквариума, установленного в лаборатории по случаю празднования сто второго полугодичного затмения от начала новой эры Сингулярного Прорыва. Недолго думая, Ли Хунь Янь приделал к щупальцам медуз источники излучения в видимом диапазоне но с разной длинной волны, заснял весь процесс шестью камерами с 48 часовой выдержкой, симметрично расставив последние вокруг сосуда, где резвились подопытные и через неделю собрал прелюбопытнейший материал, который, в свою очередь, лег в основу фундаментального труда, ныне известного, как теория полутретичных n-многообразий простой метрики Ли Хунь Янь, с которой (с некоторыми упрощениями и оговорками) я, по мере сил, постараюсь познакомить любопытного и пытливого читателя.
