What Smalltalk Was Not – De Programmatica Ipsum

People do, of course, design object-oriented programs, and they do so successfully. But they do so by mapping them onto procedures. A use case document recognisable by Ivar Jacobson lists the steps taken by the user to achieve a goal, and documents the flow of data through the system. This being too wordy and not Agile™ enough, it is replaced by the user story, but what is a story other than a sequential description of events with a beginning, a middle, and an end

In the Tangled World of Far-Right Chat Rooms, White Supremacists Are Getting Organized | Vanity Fair

Writer Talia Lavin spent about a year catfishing white supremacists online. The result: personal trauma, predictions of a “bloody” election season, and the realization that many extremists aren’t holed up in basements—they’re bit players in our daily lives.

It’s wild that anti-Semitism was a transatlantic export between Ford and Hitler and the Jim Crow South—that Ford was writing all of this in Detroit and Hitler was reading it.
Yeah, and Ford got the Order of the German Eagle. And the systematic racial discrimination against Jews was directly inspired by the Jim Crow laws. It’s a real fuck, isn’t it? America’s done a really good snow job concealing its own complicity in this stuff. To me it’s not a coincidence that the slogan of the people in the 1930s who didn’t want to go fight against Hitler was “America First.” Does that sound familiar to you?

vlink portable multi file format linker

vlink is a portable linker, written in ANSI-C, that can read and write a wide range of object- and executable file formats. It can be used to link a specific target format from several different input file formats, or for converting, stripping and manipulating files.
The linker can be controlled by GNU-style linker scripts to generate absolute code, but it also runs very well with default rules to create relocatable executables, as required for AmigaOS or MorphOS.
