Hackworth

Religion, narcissistic family members, social media algorithms, sandwich shops… all tuned to churn out subs.

It’s stupid and I love it.

Apparently the GPS one is a regular thing, every ~19 years.

Oh, we’ve got a few hurdles before then. The 32-bit unsigned counter for network time protocol resets in 2036, the GPS 10-bit week counter resets in 2038, and the old Unix signed 32-bit date also resets in 2038.

Also, someone vibe coded all that shit in an afternoon.

Then I dunno, give up on the internet? It’s half bots now anyway.
