There's an art to debugging with print statements. You need to show enough to be able to identify problems happening, without being so verbose as to overwhelm with useless noise. When #LMDB is built with debug logging enabled, the output can be too voluminous to sift thru. But it shows exactly what the code is doing, in such a way that you can parse the log and rerun the exact same operations, and get an identical database as a result.

Timelines and following hashtags is still a stupid way to interact with people. The Usenet model of topics is still the better model. You can't build meaningful thoughts from a firehose of non-sequiturs.

With #Ahsoka airing, I figured I should watch The Clone Wars to get more of her back-story. I watched all of season 1 but frankly it was an unbingeable slog. It's not really grabbing me, so I only watch 1 or 2 episodes at a time. After season 1 I skipped to the end, or end of S6. So I see Yoda learning how to become a Force ghost. Cool, but how come Anakin became one, he never trained? I guess Yoda might have taught Obi-Wan at least. #StarWars #clonewars

Everything relevant I have to tell you on this topic could be written concisely in a 500char toot, but I'm going to make you waste your time watching my video instead.

Seeking opinions... One of my old projects, RTMPdump, relies on OpenSSL for some crypto primitives, but the APIs it uses have been deprecated in 1.1 and newer. I'm wondering whether and how to support the newer versions. Since we're supporting an ancient proprietary protocol, adopting new APIs to allow supporting newer encryption schemes is irrelevant. Avoiding weaknesses in older ciphers is also irrelevant, we have to use what Adobe used, and nothing else.

This is a tune that for some reason I thought I learned off the Atlantic Fiddles CD many years ago, but recently when I dug up that recording I didn't find this tune on there, so now I have no idea where I got it from. Anyone else recognize it? It seems it's originally a highland pipe tune.
