it's called reflection because you should look at yourself and ask yourself why it's necessary to code like that

living on the edge having 2 jars of snack on the desk, using one lid to hold screws and eating from the other, almost put back the wrong lid

quite funny how my extended family unknowingly started practicing a bunch of OSINT techniques by posting photos of spots they're visiting and asking the others to find out where they are

Summary of the debacle so far:

- My account seems to have been flagged and shadowbanned, based on the symptoms, but it doesn't actually say this anywhere in the UI

- The reason is unclear; I've received no notification or explanation of any sort from Github, and had to find out through someone at $customer not being able to see my comments

- I sent a support ticket 16 hours ago, and have gotten zero response or acknowledgment so far.

- *All* of my content, except for commits, is hidden without notice; it looks deleted to anyone not logged in as me.

- My repos are gone. Any PRs and comments I've made in other repos over the past decade+ are gone. My Gists are gone.

- This includes at least one Matrix MSC that's entirely gone, and many review comments on other Matrix MSCs and NixOS RFCs. There's just entire chunks of the standards process history missing now.

- Github's account data export only includes my own repositories; all contributions to other projects are missing. Gists are completely missing.

- I can no longer do my job for $customer, that pays my income; because anything I post in their private company repositories(!!) is also invisible - including everything I've worked on over the years, retroactively.

Like, mistakes happen, an account can get flagged for erroneous reasons, fine. But it's slowly dawning on me just how much impact this is having, with seemingly no recourse. And it begs the question of how many other people this has happened to.

Framework portable external monitor feature-creep: but what if it was a powerbank as well

re: uni grades+++ 

also this might literally be the first uni course where I'm sad I couldn't include all my thoughts, all my references. Had a really solid connection to Jacob Gellers' Judaism and Whiteness in Wolfenstein, even got the script from him for easier quoting, but just couldn't put it into words in time

also 8.5/10 for research paper course, also nice, less interesting overall though

uni grades+++ 

So the big old essay I've been working on for Culture & Society finally got graded; received a 9/10 with incredibly flattering feedback. During the writing I was really unsure about the quality, but adhd brain going brrr on associating so many concepts really worked out well. Might find a way to share some excerpts somewhere? idk

weeeird dream 

dreamt you couldn't just switch the youtube music lyrics screen (which is just a block of plaintext) to a more karaoke-y style, but it also had a thing where it looked like the pope was sending you instant messages for the lyrics???? wth was going on last night

I decided to close firefox before installing updates so I wouldn't get frustrated when it randomly kills my tab and asks me to restart it..

It was a great idea except my updater spent 5+ minutes downloading flatpak updates so now I've opened my browser again cause I can't spend all day looking at the updater.
