"for you" now contains the same message multiple times

added two more screenshots to - the "root" post view is incorrect, but when reply-on-reply, information goes up-then-down.

root post view IS correct, sorry.

I understand your confusion, but that's the formatting - quoted parent is below the child post - then that post's replies follow in the discussion view. The top post is always quoting its parent below it, the different bg makes it distinct. Just need to get used to it, same on X.

There really is no other way to include the parent otherwise, you have to break the hierarchy at some point, the other form would need to omit the parent body and show a 'parent' link but we want to include its body.

…

and moving the quoted above would break the consistency with the actual feed posts which would make it way more confusing.

Maybe neither of us will ever know when this was written. Live.

It’s easy, just add your own timestamp to posts 2:35 am Tuesday, 25 August 2026 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)

No one would ever misuse this convention. This post was written on Thursday, 26 November 2009, 16:05 UTC+3:00

This is how one accidentally encourages the creation of timehash services which vend cryptographically provable timestamps....

Hit me up if you want a long-term, low-commitment, long-distance, e-mail pen-pal. I've never had so much fun hyphenating things.

Throwing heavy circles over my head is the most fun i have each day.

a few fixes this morning, some actions in your account are now gated behind email(or password) confirmations, like "delete account" and "enable password" - this is to keep the account safe.

Am I the first Korean to write here?

Job I was hoping for gave me the "we found another applicant" treatment. I don't begrudge them for that, since I know I had a 'less than adequate initial coding interview. But still, it stings and sucks. Hopefully my other interviews yield better results...

Wish you luck! Personally, I can't even land an interview these days -get rejected on the spot, so that's a feat on its own.

The more I about it, the more I am she is not .

hot take: "consumer " doesn't exist. at most it's just better search, but the ai assistants like grokbot or now instinct aren't ever going to be big. new devices and personal agents are DOA

It is troubling watching the news today from the elections in Germany. Yes, it is democratic and absolutely fair elections and the people of Germany make their own choice in their situation. Still, seeing the far right gaining so much ground in Germany brings your thoughts some 90 years back. Let’s hope and pray Germany is not going there again.

Watched the Daily Show bit about AI this week, my wife found the interview with the whistleblower guy really depressing. That interview dramatically undersold that all the sketchy hacking shit that's happening right now is coming from 1 company.

HelloWorld show code

from datetime import datetime
now = datetime.now()
formatted_time = now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
print("Formatted:", formatted_time)

Wow

what's everyone's favorite show? I'll go first; The Young Pope!

I just realized watching TV series/movies is also something I dropped in the context of It's partly filled with Youtube, admittedly with some slop allowed in.

Not sure, maybe Prince of Tennis

I have developed a beautiful free app that lays out Instagram feed photos as a perfect masonry grid every time, no matter which photos you provide it. It's completely free to use if anyone wants to check it out

Very cool! At least the landing page is amazing! I couldn’t try the app because I don’t have photographs locally, I thought it would be able to fetch my photos from Instagram, that part I found a bit confusing.

It's to create the post FOR Instagram, so does need to pull from your photos on a device 😊

Ok I see! Curious wouldn’t that be a good paid plugin for WP or standalone?

I'm unsure why, it's just for general people to use, I feel like you haven't quite grasped what the app is 😅

…

Now that you mention it like this, is it that you create the masonry collage so that someone can do a perfect Instagram carousel?
