@WuMargaret oh that ridiculously wide monitor is the one I’ve been using. Movers came yesterday so I just have my laptop screen now.

Very rudimentary – I haven’t added attributes or support for placeholder links – but now I’ve got my #Logseq graph connections loaded into #KuzuDB, with a pretty good graph view in the Kuzu Explorer interface.

Was hoping to get this much done before we were on the road for our move. Pleased to have met my deadline.

@denis disappointing job and move outcome there. Sympathies.

Oh and my dictionary of English usage is in a box currently, but “less” and “fewer” have been interchangeable for a few centuries. The narrowed usage is a more recent development by some prescriptivist or another.

I’m confused by the complete muddling of hashtag, though.

Updating netlify.toml to use a fresh Hugo. Forgetting that was not good.

How much extra do I need to pay so Notion will stop pushing their “Ask AI” at me every time I open my workspace?

Is it more than the “Ask AI” upgrade? Because I would be willing to pay more if that’s what it takes.

Been a long time, but I really enjoyed the six months or so we had between “pop-ups have been blocked so effectively that we stopped using them” and “oh hey we figured out we could advertise upgrades, subscriptions, and chatbot help in-browser with really intrusive UI!”

@maddiefuzz Prometheus chained to the rock with an eagle gnawing on his internal organs at dawn

welcome to another workday, am I right big P?

Ready for the stand-up at 9? Sisyphus says he finished the TPS reports but I got a feeling we’re gonna send him back to touch them up again.

@matthiask Out of curiosity, which distribution and which card?

EndeavourOS (Arch-based) plus Ti 3070 went smooth for me, but I know there’s a lot of variation.

The thing I’m dreading more about the move than heat, more than scorpions, more than rattlesnakes:

figuring out my #ADHD med situation living across new state lines and under new insurance that can’t start processing until we’re at the new address.

@WuMargaret Yeah that one’s not weird to me at all. It’s there and you’re already using it, so why not? My elaborate systems are just a complicated version of the same thing.

hackers.town: 2024-05-22 Wed 06:40

@lowqualityfacts I mean how much east does one really need, anyways.

hackers.town: 2024-05-22 Wed 08:53

I am no #Infosec afficianado, but did I read that right? The llama_cpp_python folks not using the safety features that already exist in jinja2?

@lmorchard Sometimes you gotta tell folks “I’m not a screwdriver so please stop trying to screw me.”

hackers.town: 2024-05-21 Tue 12:40

@ben I love the look of it, and the (clearly labeled!) menu.

hackers.town: 2024-05-21 Tue 13:07

Well damn THAT is a historical artifact. Haven’t needed portable flame for several years.

But even then I was me.

I like the idea of AFFiNE. Some interesting concepts with multiple workspace views as wiki or whiteboard. Still a lot of rough edges with both editing and sync, but if they focus on those it’s got potential. I just hope they don’t get sidetracked from core functionality by —

“INTRODUCING AFFINE AI!”

— right. That.

Not exactly high priority, but during a pause in packing I made sure the stickers I just found were on the laptop.

Finally glad other people are starting to realize StackOverflow is terrible.

I liked it for maybe six months, before the stalwart bastion against duplication and / or helpfulness decided every question had been answered.

hackers.town: 2024-05-19 Sun 06:48

Obviously embellishment for rhetorical purposes. Folks got tired of answering the same questions. I get that.

But it changed the feel of the site in a hurry for me, and I lost interest.

I’m writing a damn requirements doc. For an idle code sketch.

Damn I need a job.

Well I mean at least I broke the chain of Minecraft video recommendations?

Content warning in video and description, and honestly: valid. And appreciated.
