    That’s part of the power of the term. Globalism is a valid term for a view about how integrated international markets foster economic and social benefits, while Globalist is often used as a racist dogwhistle. Racists often use small variations of accepted terms to conflate and low key their hatred in public venues.




  • I’ve now been to Berlin at least 5 times in 28 years. I say at least because I now have to start rebuilding what happened when to have a truly accurate accounting. Once it gets above 10 I’m going to have to keep a note card reminder to have the number around.

    Someone with Governor Walz’s travel history would be just a blur unless you get official records or work really hard to remember exact trip counts.

    Ask Felon Trump how many times he’s been to Russia and see what guess he makes. This is a nothingburger of a story.




  • Your perspective might be why I enjoy microcontroller work. I love getting to know everything about the system, reading hardware documentation, and getting the low level parts to work in a highly deterministic way.

    I use ATTiny85 cores when a ESP32 costs almost the same, but the 85 only has 256 bytes of SRAM and five I/O pins so I can track it all and ensure it will do exactly what I want.






  • I’ve been accused of being a bot in online games due to my robust vocabulary, resistance to abbreviation and slang, as well as pedantic punctuation use. It has been happening for decades.

    Note: rarely have I been accused of a being a bot for my skill at gameplay. We all have our strengths and weaknesses.

    Now, if you wish to truly delve the depths of linguistic proclivities, one should peruse the works of Terry Pratchett, especially the Discworld novels. Any and all of his works are wonderful prose and deep storytelling.
