• Guess who keeps getting an ASMR ad that triggers my sensory issues that I can't block because YouTube requires my credit card details to prove I'm over 18 and requires my phone number to report it?

  I send my video links, including YouTube, to MPV. MPV has native support for those links and will open them up in their highest quality directly from the source, without any ads. It also gives you some extra control over stuff like brightness, contrast, zoom-pan and more. You can simply drag an URL into tho program if you want to keep it simple.

  Speaking of Anime, I do have a 4K monitor and it really has noticeable "scaling" artefact, but thankfully there's a real-time upscaling shader like Anime4K (https://github.com/bloc97/Anime4K) and I use it for my MPV (https://mpv.io/), and it looks good and sharp, just don't forget to turn it off for the non-anime video.

• What was the reason for building Python on top of C?
  reddit.com/r/Python | 2021-09-09

  Critically, parts of libc. and it doesn’t need to, a libc is just an available and well tested base on all platforms. The C standard has some very very bad parts that you shouldn’t touch with a 10 foot pole. Unfortunately, when writing a C library, you kinda can’t get around it.

• A nasty bit of undefined timezone behavior in Golang

  Every once in a while I open this commit [1] and read it, just to remind myself to try and avoid doing stupid decisions within my power, hopefully preventing my APIs from becoming a standardized mess that C locales are.
