Reply to comment by twovests in If light is just electromagnetic waves, and color is just different frequencies of light, and we can make radio waves at arbitrary frequencies, why can't we create visible light of arbitrary pure colors? by flabberghaster
This is what a laser does, through "stimulated emission" (i am not joking, that is what it's called) of electromagnetic radiation!
lasers are jizzing light bulbs. got it.

Reply to How many postmills exist? by flabberghaster
there's quite a number of people who've asked for help setting up postmill in the matrix channel, and i've seen a few blog posts that also discuss setting it up. so it's possible there's quite a few, but since there's no telemetry or phoning home, idk

Reply to comment by hollyhoppet in im a tech bro and i hate diversity and inclusion! grrrr! haha hey rust looks pretty good. why am i hearing about it just now in 2022? wow i love how good the documentation is. wow EVERYONE who works on rust is trans? by twovests
i've known this person for years, and it is my belief that they do not
i'm joking about not learning anything new, though. when i get sick of current projects, and i feel i can stomach learning new tooling, i will take the time to learn rust

every time i tell someone 'rust sure is popular with every other tran, maybe i should learn it', they tell me i've fallen victim to queer-baiting
so to be safe, i will simply strive to learn nothing

Apparently someone discovered their vape did a little more than just charge using this feature, so i think overall it's good but unnecessary for most people

Yeah, this is the gist of it. They came with a bunch of recommendations on how to improve performance, but hadn't actually run the code at all. I won't go into too much detail, but the recommendations were sketchy at best.
I was also named specifically, in an email that went to several of my colleagues, as not caring about quality control because I tend to commit additional fixes after opening a pull request, but before merging. Coincidentally, this person works for one of those companies that can't for the life of them find developers despite high revenue.

hey, now that's unfair. UK police do important surveillance work, such as fathering children with the animal rights activists they are spying on for some reason.
