btw, fun fact for those who don't know CS history
plan 9 operating system was inspired by the Ed Wood movie Plan 9 from Outer Space
which featured the hungarian actor, famous for doing vampires, Bela Lugosi
the emblem of plan9 OS was an angora rabbit called Glenda, a tribute to Ed Wood and his fetish for angora sweaters, and a reference to his other movie Glen and Glenda which is some kind of not very well known trans narrative
what's hilarious to me is that almost nobody knows about these things, even though they are pivotal things in the history of computer science and operating systems
i guess i'm that weird that i know about gothic music that makes reference to an old hungarian vampire movie actor who featured in a movie that had its name stolen for an operating system by a dude who was the main (honestly) designer of the Go language
what has got me shaking my head at the moment is that the sheer fraud of the current state of the "art" (ificial) bullshit that is pumping the stock markets and prompting my boss to make endless irritating bumps of links to yet another attempt to monetise this zeitgeist
idk what to say
none of this is science
none of this even actually works
