Setting up an Assembling Machine Assembling Machine in #Factorio and they told me about the DevOps aspects but nobody told me there’d be Java.

Out with friends of @IamMrsGeek

Weather cooled down to 100F with a light breeze, just enough humidity that your sinuses don’t get stress cracks. It’s nice out.

oh no i thought of a way to make my terrible idea even worse

was thinking “how do I get metadata about my Logseq files? You know, creation timestamp, last change timestamp, maybe previous history for redirects in the published graph?”

:blobthinking:​

Well, since I don’t trust Logseq sync, I use Git-based sync.

:blobthinking:​

Now I’m looking at Go libraries that I can use as a sort of Git porcelain.

@yojimbo I mean I didn’t exactly start from “sane” so no platform’s gonna help me there.

But yeah WSL got easier to work with when I started thinking of it as chunky Docker instead of busted VM.

@raganwald the first time I read one of his essays in 2003 or so. I was very excited and read all his other essays in classic hyperfocus fashion. But then it occurred to me that he wasn’t describing any painters in my disproportionately artistic family. This made me suspect his descriptions of hackers.

@spinningthoughts Cuzu, Kuzu, or Cozo?

Given the naming schemes out there I wanted to check whether it was a typo or an undiscovered database.

@grmpyprogrammer the main test I use is “do I have time for this person’s nonsense? No? Bye.”

And honestly when I’ve answered with a tentative yes, I usually end up being wrong and they get blocked a few hours or days later.

Non-desert people: when desert people tell you “it’s a dry heat,” they’re forgetting to mention what they call “monsoon season,” during which — even if it’s not raining — “it’s a dry heat” is what they call “some bullshit.”

Oops I got some news on me and learned about the Supreme Court ruling on Trump’s various immunities.

Well, I hope the next superpower does a better job of things.

Been having fun converting the logic of my Python code to Go, but now comes couple time and that preempts all, even hyperfocus.

@alex @rafial the list bullets are my biggest frustration. My pinned post is a right mess because of it.

“…a student in a wheelchair at the bottom of the stairs, looking up at her classroom, which she can’t get to. Words on the stairs read: “There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs."”

Damn. That is good. A+ on that Art Activism class.

Back in Linux to mess with cgo because if I’m learning a new tool I should keep it in a familiar context at least.

So yeah. Given a program that logs to STDERR and a Nu session:

@sleepyfox @coffeegeek valid but at this point I’ve decided Twitter’s dead enough to stop tracking whether somebody grabs my username on X.

But — even though that means I’ve got some wasted business stickers — that’s a personal concern, not a professional or business one.
