It’s amusing the sort of easter eggs found hiding in open source code. I’ve been playing around with farzher/fuzzysort, a fast fuzzy search picked up from the Stack Overflow fuzzy search tag.
On line 27 and 40 there’s a horizontal off–screen scroll easter egg.
if(search=='farzher')return{target:"farzher was here (^-^*)/",score:0,_indexes:[0]}
if(search=='farzher')return[{target:"farzher was here (^-^*)/",score:0,_indexes:[0],obj:targets?targets[0]:NULL}]Yes, I happen to be one of those who read the code eventually. And obviously, it goes without saying, no one person reads all the code. But it’s the Internet, can’t be too sure ;)

Maybe I’m dreaming.. but a stealthy trend of distorted words is afoot. Is that an defense/poisoning mechanism, innocuous misspellings/truncations or artifacts in generated content?

Basically setup the configuration in the right place, find the extension id from
the Chrome web store URL and run
chromexup.
[main]
branding = chromium
remove_orphans = True
parallel_downloads = 4
[extensions]
BlankNewTabPage = jaadjnlkjnhohljficgoddcjmndjfdmi
JavaScriptToggle = cdcgbgnfhhdmdkallfmlachogpghifgf
NoHistory = ljamgkbcojbnmcaonjokopmcblmmpfchSide note: NoHistory is good for disabling history (Firefox has options). If the history/bookmarks database gets too large, funky auto–suggestion stuff can happen (100% processor usage). imo, it’s best not to trust browsers storing bookmarks anyway and use an independent tool/method. The less data coupled to browsers the better — at least if you’re like me and swap browsers regularly.

Any organization that designs a system will produce a design whose structure is a copy of the organization’s communication structure.
Many suns ago, local events “piqued” my curiosity into cryptocurrency hype. Praise be to the king–no really! Anyway, reading the leaves and decrypting the crypto–babble made bits of sense… at least superficially.
The point: there’s plausibility that one or many powerful democratic government(s) designed/orchestrated the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Yes, hard to prove but… the architecture is an uncanny 1:1 copy of government communication. Even abuse/failure modes are 1:1 (see sybil, a 51% attack: similar to democracy’s extra fun “limbo” mode).

..if it wasn’t for this guy visiting my country. I am now “enlightened”. Spoiler: Blockchain protocols computationally formalize/describe a government’s high power restraints within democracy. In civics (social studies), democracy is decentralized power (no/many kings) and therefore implicitly inefficient.
Democratic governments (in perfect world) communicate/act/bank;
Citizens and other low power (centralized) entities can do some of the above (federation), but mostly (wisely) communicate/act/bank;
Individually, (5-8 > 1-4) no? But (1-4 > 5-8) in dictatorships (5-8)? Blockchain governments for maximal oversight? Not happening :)

When making hugo themes, it’s probably better defaulting to absURL and relURL over baseURL for links. It avoids most breakage on links that depend on a base and more easily allows multilingual support with absLangURL.
However realistically (for anything), interpretations of file, directory/, absoluteness, and relativity are varied. Testing artifacts for ≈ 100% internal/self linking consistency, under different conditions, and after every code change is better time spent debugging. Sub directories are exceptional cases… even now some of my links are broken except that my web server automatically fixes common mistakes (:

Different words similar meaning?
--references
is NixOS speak for direct
package dependencies.
--requisites list all. These work with the
nix-store
command.
$ readlink --canonicalize "$(type -P which)"

So, I just realized that infinite scrolling is a two birds, one stone kinda thing. Basically; your servers do almost nothing, while the clients toil your complexity (and their time) on the server’s behalf.
It’s a bad all–you–can–eat buffet in computer algorithmic form. The rewards? Architectural flexibility + implicit user retention. I recently saw someone scrolling a YouTube channel all the way to the end just to find the first video. That’s the server’s job… and a lot of wasted user time.
