@dgar Jeepers! crypto chaining on a single thread 1MHz sub-scalar 8/16-bit CPU... What a carnival! For all you non-native English speakers out there, “read” is pronounced like “lead”, and “read” is pronounced like “lead”.

@dgar I don't envy transcription and term extraction software, which needs to understand that reading (a book) is really a very different concept to Reading, a town in Berkshire. Reading a boring book about training is possible on the train to Reading to see the tunnel boring.

@dgar Fun fact: humans have the greatest stamina of any animal on earth. We can keep running for hours and hours, no other animal can do that.

@dgar +9001% I refuse to apply for positions where HR refuses to put a number on the salary. In 1866, Liechtenstein sent an armed force of 80 soldiers to defend their territory’s border during the Austro-Prussian War. They returned with 81 soldiers, having avoided any battles and making a friend along the way. In 1868, Liechtenstein disbanded their army. https://www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-history/liechtenstein-army-81-men-returned/

@dgar 1 ... For a few days now I am contemplating a toot about this topic. I usually take the effort to describe in detail what is in a photo. Once on the Bluebird site I read a tweet from a blind person who asked for better descriptions in #AltTexts and explained also what screen readers are capable of and what not - for example, if there are only emojis in the handle/nickname of the tweeter, the screen reader cannot say what it means. ... 2 @dgar 2 ... Since then, I changed my name handle to only letters (no special signs, no earth pictograph) and payed extra attention to what I attached to my tweets. And, I am imagining what I would like to know about a picture, if I couldn't see it. Or, try to explain it to a friend on the phone (landline, no video possible). What is very sad is, when people just put their text from the toot above into the #AltText and think that would be enough. No. It is not.

@dgar This confused me as a kid. I thought US was a goddamn slow country for having 35 everywhere in cities.
