2026/03/25

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host.DISCLAIMER: "Hill willing to kill on" is an idiom. I do not condone or tolerate open calls for violence and want to make this very clear here. Due to the incredibly unfortunate nature of the topic at hand, I have also taken the liberty to mark this episode as explicit. This episode was recorded while I had some short downtime. There are filler phrases and pauses throughout. I apologize in advance. Provide feedback on this episode.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host.Some tips on how the text you write can be improved. With the pestilence of AI spreading out over the once-human internet, doing what LLMs don't is a pretty good starting point to improve one's own writing. Make mistakes. Edit yourself. Avoid the tics that are dangerously close to becoming the norm. See this Wikipedia page, aimed at editors of user submissions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing The

Hacker Public Radio ·

2026/03/17

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This series is dedicated to exploring little-known—and occasionally useful—trinkets lurking in the dusty corners of UNIX-like operating systems. Imagine, if you will, a Jane Austen novel about three sisters. The first is well-known and celebrated by everyone; the second, while slightly smarter and more capable, is significantly less popular; and the third languishes in near-total isolation and obscurity. These three sisters live on any UNIX-like

2026/03/16

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host.We’ll explain why we’re doing it, what it is, and cover some useful tools along the way. I’ve been watching movies recommended to me by my colleagues. As I work for a global company, the recommendations are often “Foreign Language”, which by definition is every movie to someone. It’s often difficult to read the subtitles, or they are distracting from the acting. So I thought of converting the subtitles to speech for inclusion as an audio track,

2026/03/10

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. I also happen to be happy when I see my dogs well. They’re both a little old and have had grave sicknesses. One, the girl, is taking medication because of a problem, maybe on the spine, that interferes with walking, but in general both her and the little white male (who almost died because of stone in the ureter at around the pandemic) are today good, and I’m grateful seeing them in this state. And I suffer when they suffer. The hot weather is
