For my reading list, the various responses to [Wayback/Archive] Julia Evans on Twitter: “is there an easy way (in the browser, at runtime) to generate a call graph of which functions called which other functions in a javascript program?”

I think I like the transparent version most, but the wood versions (yellow or brown) of course have more mystery.
There are more products in [Wayback/Archive] Wooden Kinetic Sculpture for Art Lovers – LovelyWings.
You can buy some of them at [Wayback/Archive] Amazon.com: LovelyWings, for instance the brown version of the [Wayback/Archive] Amazon.com: Perpetual Motion Machine – Infinitive Marble Machine – William Le’s Perpetual Motion Simulator : Handmade Products.

For my link archive: finally Apple had to broadly accept apps to allow other forms of purchases than through Apple itself.
[Wayback/Archive] Apple has never lost this hard before – YouTube
focussing around this quote from the court order (full PDF below):
Apple willfully chose not to comply with this Court’s Injunction. It did so with the express intent to create new anticompetitive barriers which would, by design and in effect, maintain a valued revenue stream; a revenue stream previously found to be anticompetitive. That it thought this Court would tolerate such insubordination was a gross miscalculation. As always, the cover- up made it worse. For this Court, there is no second bite at the apple.

The delete trick below not just works for the Chrome Omnibox, but for any autocomplete list in Chrome.
[Wayback/Archive] How to remove an entry from Chrome’s Remembered URLs from the url bar? – Super User (thanks [Wayback/Archive] cmcculloh, [Wayback/Archive] Gaff and [Wayback/Archive] User 张 源 – Super User):
Q
I’ve got a URL in Chrome “local.mysite.com” that autopopulates when I start typing “local.my” into the URL bar.Note that this URL DOES NOT EXIST in my browser history (at chrome://history/#e=1&p=0) because it isn’t a real site and therefore couldn’t ever be successfully visited and therefore never shows up in my history.

Having used less for 40+ years now, I wonder how moar measures up to it: [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – walles/moar: Moar is a pager. It’s designed to just do the right thing without any configuration.
Features I at least expect are in [Wayback/Archive] less: display the contents of a file in a terminal | less Commands | Man Pages | ManKier.

The people knowing about the really early Pascal history are a dying breed. So before I pass away (see the posts on my rectum cancer), let me post a few more links here that based on yesterday’s Trip down memory lane: book on p-Code based UCSD Pascal which I ended with:
I learned a few more things from [Wayback/Archive] What do you think about something like Pascal bytecode? (Page 2)

Now that I re-wrote my 2012 talk on Class Operators and Helpers and presented it in Delphi at the ITDevCon2024 ([Wayback/Archive] ITDevCon | Home – Rome, 2024), see [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – jpluimers/ITDevCon2024: Temporary ITDevCon2024 repository until I fixed the «git checkout “Illegal byte sequence”» of my Conferences repository, here is an idea to check out if I can implement it in Delphi:
