A recent upgrade to Dietpi (Debian Trixie) totally broke `docker` operations in Swarmpit. Swarmpit is essentially abandoned, so I used it as an opportunity to migrate to Uncloud. It's been totally awesome.

Just to add my own observation here: some cuisines are really optimized for sharing in larger groups… certainly a lot of the regional Chinese cuisines assume many people at a table, with large (i.e. higher priced) servings. If it’s just 2 o

I dunno whether "good" really applies to this, but I've gotta say I've been loving the cost, portability and reliability of the Numark DJ2Go Touch ($AU120): https://www.numark.com/product/dj2go2-touc

Not a course, as such, but reading “Measurement” by Paul Lockhart, of “A Mathematician’s Lament fame. I’ve never read anything that so clearly communicates and leads you into a state of mind that COMPELS you to prove mathematical conjecture

“Measurement” by Paul Lockhart, of “A Mathematician’s Lament” fame. This was recommended by the delightful and talented Tibees YouTuber. A few pages in and I was absolutely hooked and ready to start proving geometric conjectures… A truly am

Interesting stuff. Would be VERY interested in having visualizations of Apple Music data. I've had 20+ years to build up pretty significant play history. Certainly being able to look into every type of health data would yield interesti

This is gonna sound a bit corny, but it impacted me for reasons that will become clear: "1984", by George Orwell. I was 13 at the time, and I was lucky enough to have a passionate English teacher that gave us challenging books to

This is remarkably similar to Calca.app, which I still use occasionally. http://calca.io/ I love that yours is web based! Can see it being much more reusable in a number of use-cases. Calca was originally MacOS/iOS, bu

Ah, but it’s an idempotent joke, so it’s funny no matter how many times you tell it!

A squib is what they use in movies to make something look like it’s been shot with a bullet. Kinda a little flat firework that ejects “stuff” explosively. Actors wear them under their costumes. They’re usually remote controlled

If brute force doesn’t work, you’re not using enough of it. There are only 2 hard problems in computer science: 1. Naming things 2. Cache invalidation 3. Off-by-one errors 0. Asynchronous callbacks 7. Buffer overflowA203FE11980018900000

This is inspiring stuff. Was extremely interested in the Inmos Transputer in the 80s. Seems like an idea way ahead of its time… a bit like REX. I find the parallels in design with the Actor concurrency model of Erlang, Elixir and Transputer

Tried going through the onboarding sample project from within VS-Code locally… I know, you suggest trying it in the Github Browser, but, hey, I'm perverse and it's available as an option within the extension. It's not at all

This is so insultingly dumb. The skill and music categories are simplistic and show no knowledge of the true depth and breadth of music styles or techniques, and it pathetically assumes I want to find someone within 10 “miles”. You do know

Laws regarding this are different from country to country. I know that the US laws are very biased towards the employer, and the employee gets to be put in a terrible situation. Australia had laws like this in the past (thanks Liberal Party

Yeah, I dunno why I let it happen either. I’d never been like that with any other job. My only guess is the explanation I gave in my other post above/below. It certainly hasn’t happened since or ever will again, you can be sure of that

Been in that situation before too. Damn that sucks.

Oh, absolutely agree. Some people really THRIVE when they become parents, and hooray for them. It’s different for everyone.

The travel thing is definitely something I wish I could do more of, so if your current employer enables that, that’s a big plus for your mental health. Do you think your current employer would respond well to an honest discussion about how

That’s a very good question. Hubris? I guess? What I mean by that, was I was REALLY invested in the project: not the business case, or the brand or anything else about the company, and particularly not the CEO. I REALLY wanted to complete t

> Normalising talking about it, is good 100% agree with this. This was, I think, the number 1 thing I did NOT want to do when I was in the midst of suicidal depression (i.e. talk about it) and the biggest reason why it got worse and wors
