The actual technical analysis of the CrowdStrike thing. tldr: Their testing didn't fully mimic production, they didn't test each individual parameter, just threw in a wildcard, so their automated tests didn't catch a "memory out-of-bounds" error way out in the 21st input parameter. https://www.crowdstrike.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Channel-File-291-Incident-Root-Cause-Analysis-08.06.2024.pdf

I believe this applies to everything digital right now. At the risk of sounding elitist (I'l definitely sound elitist), maybe things are like this: More accessibility = easier to make = less effort = less personal expense = less soul.

There's a reason old pieces of art inspire awe; once you realize just how much effort they must have taken (and here I'm just repeating what your entry says), it's incredible that they could have been made at all

Regarding your comment I accidentally deleted, my font used to be a standard Courier font stack (Courier New, or Courier, or fallback to generic monospace), but I made the jump to a "web font" with an updated version, Courier Prime as you noted. It's cleaner, modernized and in TrueType format.

You know, maybe I'm not cut out for short surreal fiction. I should maybe stay in my lane and let NoHappyNonsense handle that.

Font used to be Courier New, now it's Courier Prime. Slightly cleaner modern version.

I really dig the use of border-radius in your design. Really solid personal "brand" aesthetic.

I've been through a corporate rebranding as a pro web dev & there's usually a focus on specific consistent details like your use of specific border radius combinations to establish a visual identity (which is then used across websites and emails and so forth). That's a solid development/design technique. :)
