@sikkdays @genehack Yep, that’s been my flow for a while now, forwarding (only) public posts and threads to Twitter. I was using https://crossposter.masto.donte.com.br but they got rate limited pretty harshly the other day.

@denis I agree! There’s a whole section on theme creation.

I don’t think I’ve seen dendograms in other equivalent libraries. And I particularly like the logging — adding just the right touches to Julia’s existing logging macros.

I know enough about the limitations of my masking capabilities to keep camera off during the really big meetings.

(again, this face has had waitstaff panicking because of how I was looking at my sandwich)

I was going to be mad about all the breaking changes in #Nushell 0.72, but every bit they removed was something that at some point annoyed me enough that I had to set Nu aside for a little bit and practice my breathing.

So — yay?

@cinebox I’m used to it, but I know folks that have basically done aliases / functions for stuff like ls | grid to get just names in one row. And now they can use a block in their alias: ls | each {|it| print $it.name }

I just want to mention that Loud Dog woke me up at 4:30am and I really really wish I could’ve gotten back to sleep.

We have weather. Who said that was okay?

hackers.town: 2022-11-29 Tue 11:55

@gizmomathboy Well I’m just itching to give terrible advice, so let me know if you have any questions.

@gizmomathboy only way to be sure

All right. Got enough material to talk about PKM stuff at work. First version of a talk, at least.

hackers.town: 2022-11-28 Mon 11:36

That was a lot of talking. Fun, but now my brain’s all “are we done? good. let us not speak out loud for a while please.”

hackers.town: 2022-11-28 Mon 12:53

More of a lightning talk than a full deep dive, because that’s my style.

Time for something besides my usual symmetry bedtime #drawing.

@rhosyn Did that with Procreate on an iPad!

I miss living within lazy walking distance of stuff to do.

Loud Dog does not approve of my dancing style. She has a point but that’s just too bad.

Starting to use Tumblr as a drop spot for doodles, since they don’t to terrible things with image compression, aren’t run by some dude trying to speed run for Most Terrible Company Ever, and aren’t adding to storage costs for a Fedi instance.

@mwop Thanks! I put my favorites on my site, but I also go through phases of nightly doodles, and putting all of those on the site tests my patience for static site generation.
