was feeling a little fancy, bought a bag of gesha coffee beans :))

Bonnie Raitt stuck in my head, who, by some definition, is a nepo baby, but well before the term was coined. I think the problem is obv not family businesses, but a shrinking pool of opportunities for those without a prebuilt network to inherit (or buy).

This is another way to describe "increasing wealth inequality".

Reading Slow Productivity by Cal Newport, discovered via onboarding content in mymind mymind.com

A show code

    n=n//2 if n%2==0 else 3*n+1;s.append(n)
for v in s[:15]:print(f"{v:>4} "+"█"*min(v//3,40))
print(f"{len(s)} steps, peak {max(s)}")

stdout length exceeded

uncensored Qwen and OpenClaw a prompt and pray there is no flaw

thinking on deploying excalidraw on my homeserver, so I can store drawings without bothering with export/import. Yes, excalidraw+ for $7/mo; but nowadays I pay only one sub - for Claude; everything else is personal software.

Well, done, Claude did while I drove a car. It even added save/open file from the server (stored in SQLite). Deployed on my homelab server.

Anyone here using NixOS? How long did it take for you to learn it and completely set it up? My current distro is Arch (btw)

tell me if this makes sense to you: not all expensive chairs are worth a lot but the chairs that are worth a lot cost a lot of money

Maybe adjust the last part to “most Chairs that are worth a lot…” - because I guess there are chairs that are inexpensive but still good and thus could have cost a a lot?

…

my guess is the inexpensive chairs can be a good value for the price you pay but I doubt there are many of any chairs that are inexpensive and yet worth a lot

Good chairs are expensive, yes. Can’t find myself a good dining chair set for a year at €500/4 chairs budget.

Day length formula: (Did you know that it becomes a triangle wave at the (ant)arctic circle?)

Real bummer for about the price. I'm sure this is absolutely not what any of them wanted.

Same with the Steam Machine. They could have been awesome offerings for a lot of different use cases, but alas, being able to generate memes with grandma's pictures is of the utmost importance...

It really makes me wonder how the consumer market will evolve as the months go. It's not looking too good.

text log Minecraft server when ?

What's your Minecraft skin?

it's Norway from hetalia, I need to change it lol!

How about Dagoth Ur next?

who's that?!

It's the character who says the quote in your bio

what are ya'lls favorite wikipedia page? I myself is partial to the 'variations' entry for high fives

You should check my other site onlycats.cc i think you will enjoy!

love it. great concept

still five hops to Hitler

A little late for that :p

Fantastic contributions, thank you all!!!

Catastrophic interference is also a favorite Wikipedia page and concept. The thing is, it doesn’t only happen to artificial neural networks, I’ve had it happen to me a few times. Especially with pin numbers, newer pins overwriting old ones and I’m always scared when I’m having hard time remembering something that this catastrophic interference applied and now the information is gone from my brain.

If programming is the typing of characters into a text file, it is way worse. I think the key to learning is still doing it rather than reading it. If the question is about system design I think you can, but only if you curious and it becomes a problem that needs to be solved. Asking "What do you think" is one of my favorite questions to learn at the moment.

I do think there will be what were hard earned lessons about system design, code smell, designing data structures for the hardware you're running on, concurrency golden paths, etc., which are now with agentic dev even harder to learn and internalize. But also if you have an excellent teacher in the form of an actually-good model pair programming with you always, maybe not? Maybe a pair programming AI programming tutor would be a good Zed/vscode extension. Or product.

کوئی نجراجہ لیکر آیا ہوں میں دیوانہ تیرے لئے

I have brought some Najraja, I am crazy for you

آپ کے دیئے گئے کی درست اور معیاری اصلاح "کوئی لے کر آیا ہوں، میں دیوانہ تیرے لیے" ہے۔ اس جملے میں 'نجراجہ' کی جگہ درست لفظ نذرانہ (تحفہ) ہے، 'لیکر' کو الگ الگ لے کر لکھا جاتا ہے، اور 'لئے' کی درست املا لیے ہے۔

The correct and standard correction of your given is "I have brought a , I am crazy for you". In this sentence, the correct word for 'najraja' is 'nazran' (gift), 'lekar' is written separately, and 'lay' is spelled correctly.

I started blogging… again mataherry.bearblog.dev

My first post on Twitter in 2007 or so was kinda about the utility of broadcasting what was on my mind. :)

I really like this minimal approach, I wish the maintainer great success with textlog. whatever that may look like to them :) I will make sure to check in occasionally.

Just found a nice patch of sun in a comfy spot on the couch. Maybe cats do have some things worked out.
