Turn into a snob? When a tutorial from a certain domain disappoints you, stop following links into that domain. Seek operating systems with smarter people, and fewer errors. Look for languages with high quality in implementation, documentation and ecosystem.

See you in a few years, when you you'll ask for advise as there aren't jobs for people whose stack is arm, *bsd, sqlite/postgres/redis, cl/elixir/go.

Ditto for HTTPS:

    % openssl s_client -quiet -connect  google.com:443
    depth=2 OU = GlobalSign Root CA - R2, O = GlobalSign, CN = GlobalSign
    verify return:1
    depth=1 C = US, O = Google Trust Services, CN = GTS CA  1O1
    verify return:1
    depth=0 C = US, ST = California, L = Mountain View, O = Google LLC, CN = *.google.com
    verify return:1
    GET / HTTP/1.1
    Connection: close
    
    
    HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Ah. I just left the physical control key alone, and thus have no caps lock key at all. Seems some applications grab the keypresses at a lower level than where PowerToys changes it, so sometimes caps lock is activated when my intention is to hold control.

Was screensharing with a react native hotshot yesterday, and felt my perceived age doubled to 102 as I suddenly was yelling in all caps, with no quick exit.

Swapping left control and caps lock disturbs AltGr, which appears to be a synthesis of left control and right alt.

Also nice how the built-in Iphone calculator app is plain and simple in portrait mode, and rivals a scientific calculator when rotated to landscape mode.

No exposure to assembly apart from #'disassemble in the repl, just wanted to praise the beautiful page design. Makes me want to dive into Keleshevs book.
