Argh! Why is @Nextcloud 📱☁️💻 not telling me that there's a new version out? I'm on 29 and it's telling me it's up to date.
Maybe it's a PHP thing because I'm still on 8.2.20, but that should be supported.

Without fail, every time I boost a post about discrimination on the fedi, I end up seeing a bunch of white guys trying trying to minimize it and telling the original poster why they're wrong and/or being unreasonable.
I'm getting the impression that just maybe the people complaining about this aren't making it up or something.
Weird, right?

A while ago on a whim, I did a somewhat deep dive into the abacus. I thought it would be interesting to learn about a device that is sometimes credited as an ancestor of the modern computer.
I've come to be of the opinion that it's not really a fair comparison though. An abacus is not a computer... at least not a full-fledged computer. It doesn't compute anything. Your brain does that. I think it is fair however to compare it to memory, though.
An abacus is essentially an array of memory cells. Instead of storing bytes, it stores digits, but that's a trivial distinction. You even have to allocate those memory cells to accommodate the structure of the data you are operating on, just like you would with the memory in a computer.

My mother-in-law overestimates my command of the Spanish language (though knowing French is admittedly helpful).
She claims that I understand 80% of what I hear. It's closer to 30%, but I can piece a lot together through context.

In the world of computers, no matter what tool you use, someone will hate it and tell you you're an idiot for using it.
Don't worry about those people. Use the tool that works you.
(This advice probably extends beyond computers.)

I actually wrote a column about this ten years ago, that is sadly still relevant:
