Don't rely on that. What was that old management manipulation tactic? Put a duck in everything you present, so management can say "that's fine, just lose the duck" so they feel like they've left their mark and won't be as likely to recommend changes that would add to your workload.
If you depend on that, you're going to fall for a lot of things that don't have such obvious tells.

Unauthorized Bread by Cory Doctorow.
It's a novella, the first in the collection of four published in the book Radicalized. Looks like you can buy the ebook and the audiobook straight from his website.

Edit: now I see that you've already linked to it.

I keep finding new features. Tabs. Hsplit. Plugins. Authentication prompt at save time if it detects that the user you ran it under doesn't have permission to write to that file.
And of course keybinds that make a dang lick of sense.

It's time for you to find Micro. The cycle continues.

I installed Arch on my daily driver because I wanted a challenge.
It's too dependable, even when updating every other day and installing a bunch of nonsense from the AUR. Where's my challenge?

Timeshift is great. I've recovered from an rm -rf /* with it, just to see if I could. Turns out: yes.

Things have gotten harder for me! But that's because the things I want to do with it get more interesting and complicated as my knowledge grows.

I don't think that's even true. He just had enough money that he could fail 99 times before succeeding once, and the return from that one was enough that he could fail 999 times before succeeding, and so on.
He just threw money around until enough other people succeeded in big enough ways, and then he claims credit.

There's an episode where Brain gets incapacitated and Pinky takes over the world. Did I dream that?

Well that looks absolutely excellent. I love the books.
I did not expect to be this excited about The Rise And Fall of Sanctuary Moon.

Well now it has one.
What's everyone playing? I just tried out Round the Table with The Professor and I love all the multiple opponents stuff.

 

This flat square of plastic doesn't sound so bad!
It came in the Bloom County comic collection shown in the picture (Billy and the Boingers), and contains two tracks performed by a fictional in-universe band.
It's probably not technically vinyl.
