I love how the pandemic happened with the absolute worst waves over late December and early January and covid never went away and how big in-person events in January never changed a goddamn thing. They're still just in January at the height of plague season and they don't bother with masks or ventilation. Good job guys, you've learned absolutely nothing. 👏

Altijd leuk om boodschappen bezorgd te krijgen die je al een tijdje geleden had besteld.

Anna van vorige week vroeg zich blijkbaar af hoe lang de oven non-stop aan kan voor hij het opgeeft.

If you look at every investment in “AI” as the ruling ownership class trying to find a way to make profit without having to pay actual people, all of their enthusiasm begins to make sense.

The absolute most frustrating thing about stateres design so far, is that "you cannot prove that something happened earlier, only that it happened later"

Ruby and #Rails #jobs don't just have a junior problem. They also have a cross-training problem. Companies claim to have trouble hiring senior software engineers. Their job ads reveal why.

They aren't just asking for seniors--they're asking for years of experience in their specific tech stack. If you're having trouble finding workers but you're turning down people with 10+ years of experience in other languages who want to move into #ruby, you're missing out!

It’s foggy out! Used the pen torch and noticed it was casting a beam so took some photos and videos of it.

The Braillnet project exists to this day, although the BBS and phone numbers are down, users can still access their e-mail, the personal websites the users could create under the Braillnet domain are still up serving software, literature and music created by the community and the FTP with anonymous access is a treasure trove of early notetaker goodies, DOS and early Windows software and useful information in txt files that would have been of great use to the community back then. Always worth exploring it with a translation service of your choice. braillnet.cz/sons/bplus.htm

Instead of saying "I'm available to hire", say "my worksona is adoptable"

it's interesting how much anarchism has transformed the way I think about, well, everything really. it's almost less a political ideology and more of a worldview and philosophy to me (though the political side is ofc still essential). I guess this is what post-anarchists are talking about? I should read more of their stuff...

If algorithmic systems are harming people and they have little other means to stop them, why shouldn’t those systems be destroyed? @ali

Ireland has one week left to do potentially the funniest thing of all time.

@futurebird @jacquiharper I once made the mistake of feeding my cats on an oval plate instead of a round one. They wouldn't touch the food. Not realizing that was why, I tried feeding them fresh food on the oval plate and again they wouldn't even touch the food. Only took me two tries to realize and give them food on a round plate, which they gobbled up immediately! I've never made that mistake again! :D

And laying out a fresh linen tablecloth on the floor...

Pica has taught us that she prefers to eat off of white glazed dishes with a low edge, and please plate the cat food in the center and heap it up with a fork.

(Yes she has meowed and refused to eat because the food was not centered or she didn't like the plate!)

I'm working on a state resolution algorithm for today (which, who knows, might make it into some day too). And I could use some help.

Please send me your most cursed event graphs that you would expect to break a state resolution algorithm and be exploitable! I'd like to check that it can deal with these cases *before* deploying it out in the wild.

Don't really care about the format, as long as it describes the graph well enough to understand the weirdness. Diagrams are fine, DOT syntax is fine too, textual descriptions too.
