hello world!

Hello 👋

I Built a Free Open Data Site for My Town

only when the bullied attacks the bully, it's when the teacher intervenes I have a theory that it's because they fear the weaker one that has been suffering and bottling emotions for days, weeks, or even months. once it's unbottled, the bullied won't stop until they're sure they won't be bullied again, and that could be bad... for the school and the teacher.

might be true

…

I said this based on my experiences being bullied at school and seeing videos of bullied kids reacting. I don't know if I'm right, but there may be something there

I had never been able to release my pent up anger in a good way, oh well! this definitely won't back fire in my adult years!

my dad taught me to never hit other kids, even when I'm bullied, otherwise I would lost the "right side" of the fight. but if it's life or death I could react. and I would always report to school, after 3 times I was allowed to hit back the bully

All emails from textlog go to my junk folder, . Using iCloud+. Not sure if anyone reported that before, so here I am. :-)

Yeah it's happening to people. It's because the email contains a link and we don't have the reputation yet. Not sure what to do, have you tried reporting it as 'Not spam' in your client? Maybe if enough people do that it will fix. Gmail works ok.

Yup, I am moving them out of it. It might take a while, but eventually should be OK. All good, hopefully now with a password I will not have much use for them any more.

I found this from f-droid.

Pocket Trillium, brilliant!!!

none of my friends have java Minecraft ://

Everyone is on bedrock? there are ways to play on the same server even with different versions.

wait really?! me and my friends were always just talking while in our own worlds..

you can try GeyserMC, you can get it on a custom server and as far as I know you can also use it on Aternos. I've used it a few times on private servers, works pretty well

…

OMGG thank you so much! me and my friends are gonna play tonight!!!

i always have to resist dream futures that are way out of my league. no, Orit no! you can't be a priest your a girl!!!! noo!!! you can't be a cardinal either, stop!!

oh,and what a shame it is! burning some incense at my altar and trying to climb the religious ladder! sigh...

“Passion has little to do with euphoria and everything to do with patience. It is not about feeling good. It is about endurance. Like patience, passion comes from the same Latin root: pati. It does not mean to flow with exuberance. It means to suffer.” ― Mark Z. Danielewski, Ho

After months of hardly any rain, I’m really enjoying a cozy day stuck indoors just listening to the downpour; getting on with doing some house cleaning. Is it too premature to declare this autumn⁇

I always associate summer with the months June, July, August — thinking that end of August is end of summer — but no, 7th of August is actually summer midpoint, we’re in the middle now, not near the end.

Logged on to Bluesky after a news-free weekend. Regrets.

I imagine something terrible has happened (again) and the world is talking about it. I avoid reading general news. Too depressing.

Really glad to be using Haskell for work - especially in today's climate with agentic coding. Our team uses containers to keep our development environment consistent across team members, though, and most agent sandbox approaches want to either offload your work fully to the cloud or they want to sandbox the agent harness process itself. We're not ready for full cloud based development (yet?) and sandboxing just the agent doesn't work for us when the agent needs to run docker.

... because letting the agent run docker gives them a too-easy escape hatch from their sandbox. So we're currently stuck with using VMs. This turns out to be tricky but seems do-able. My current approach is to provision a VM image and use Incus for the execution. My main goal is to keep my current workflow of local/non-agent dev working seamlessly and share the source with the VM/agent.

This means sharing my working dirs with the agent VM but overlaying artifact dirs from VM-owned block devices so we don't take too big of an IO perf hit. I also don't want the agent to be able to git push so that means we need some quirky git config to rewrite origin paths and thread through some agent specific PATs ("thanks" GitHub) for read-only repo access. These ALSO need to be threaded through to the development containers - they need to clone private repos.

... in the end, this seems to work but I haven't lived with it for long. There are still some quality of life issues to work out, but I think it'll work out. At this point, I've removed all coding agents from my host - and that's nice.

Curious, why does using Haskell make a difference here?

…

It's tangential to the sandboxing topic, really. I started the first post with a broader intent in mind and then elaborated on the sandboxing setup I'm working on. For AI-assisted coding, though, it's nice because Haskell provides a lot of feedback earlier in the development process compared to lots of other languages. It tends to work once it compiles (obviously not all the time).

A credit union wants to get their own data out of a vendor's online system. Vendor wants $160,000. I wrote a script with to download the data just as though a user would. It's going to run for about 6 weeks to download around 250k records and 70GB of images.

you could split to buckets like alphanumerically and parallelize it if you don't want to wait that long. Probably need to launch a few instances but still cheaper lol.

The slowness is intentional. I wanted to make it look more like a user doing it than a script so it doesn't set off any alarms. I have it waiting from 1 to 3 seconds between clicks to slow it down. :-) So far so good!

Anybody here actively working in or has contributed to (in any capacity) conservation (be it flora or fauna)?

…

You know, as interesting as that sounds, I wouldn't at all know where to begin with something like that. Do you have a suggestion?

I suggest looking around your area first, perhaps there are conservation groups already. Then, select among them which one focuses on native species that are most impactful to your place. 😁

A show code

everybody come to we're having a party!

can't believe It don't let me jump up and down

Woow this is really cool!!

Thats so awesome! Getting RC3 vibes

Been working on an old mastodon hosting project I tried to start a few years ago, with a focus on privacy. This is the first big project I've tried to come back to with the help of coding agents and find it invigorating, and gives me the confidence to actually finish the project. Who knows if it will ever make a dollar, but it sure is fun to watch my ideas come to life.

Nudged by an interesting read about time perception to try reclaim moments where I can deliberately feel bored again.

I'm so fed up with the series of tabloid articles claiming Koji was a stand-in actor in koitoki. the 'insider' seems to be part of the staff since they had access to details like the location of the wrap-up party. Idc who they are and how true their information is, the intention is obviously malicious. it's just disappointing that a person like that is blending in with the people my oshi works with, viewing him as nothing more than a subject to sell to trash tabloids.

the fact that these articles completely contradict official content is reason enough to ignore them. for instance, the article claimed Koji wasn't as cheerful as usual, yet the crank-in footage with Mone-chan was filled with laughter, and she even explicitly called him the mood maker of the set. they also claimed he joined filming late, contradicting the fact that they all met at the initial script reading. plus, on sunomanma, Raul even mentioned seeing the original drama proposal early on.
