@VE2UWY No, last specific disappointment I’m aware of is AI suggestions on MDN.

@baldur I like this. I’ve been missing the topic directory approach I used way back, before jamming it all into a blog structure.

Thinking a lot about moving back in that direction, but with evergreen and ephemera properly partitioned.

Neat if I press right here I can change the tone of the ringing in my ear.

I probably shouldn’t do that.

@maddiefuzz It’s a higher pitch for sure but I think it goes past 2600 too quick.

That would be cool.

hackers.town: 2023-07-21 Fri 10:08

@maddiefuzz @capnseasick same but this’ll be like being able to change the channel!

hackers.town: 2023-07-20 Thu 09:14

@seatek we can’t rule it out yet!

@kusuriya @lmorchard no.

New #Smalland update includes player levels and a fearsome tit, so you know I’ll be checking that out later today.

Building those .NET skills because I’m young and I need the money.

Well, I need the money anyways.

Been good enough with my job search log that I could confirm that yes indeed I just applied for a two-week old listing that matches this exact job title, description, and location I applied for two months ago.

This has no bearing on the org. I know folks do stuff like that. I’m just glad I wasn’t losing my mind. In this aspect.

Household update: Jumpy Dog played with Bouncy Dog for a few seconds rather than running away, Barry and Bouncy Dog have exchanged head bumps and kisses a couple times (Jumpy Dog is scandalized by Barry’s polyamorous feline ways), and Jack is still deciding between distaste and indifference for Bouncy Dog.

@IamMrsGeek Yah we’ll be keeping an eye on that for sure.

So Mrs Geek wanted another dog. We talked about the kind of dog we wanted. Bigger than Jumpy Dog, maybe a lab?

Then Jumpy Dog’s cousin here goes and picks me from across the shelter show.

My “I hate dogs” line gets less convincing every day.

I get this vibe off Java #Minecraft that it’s like Emacs, in that you can completely transform the experience with mods but maybe a beginner should stick with defaults for a year or two to understand what the mods are adding.

Also they’re both hella chunky and clunky looking.

So fucking tired of people too busy to let their dog say hello.

Interviewed for a position requiring #PowerBI experience and apparently my first marriage doesn’t count.

Saw a questionable info-meme being shared repeatedly. Decided to add my thoughts. I’ll save you the click:

I’d add “critical thinking and information literacy,” especially to better analyze information presented to you in infographic or meme format. What did they include? What did they exclude? What biases do you see laid out before you? How many of them are deliberate and how many do you think are subconscious? Should you treat them differently?
