Phanpy now has a version of https://cohost.org 's best feature, and it works with your existing Mastodon/Fediverse account https://indieweb.social/@laurenshof/111997146906858162 TLDR: You follow 40 people, but the people who post infrequently tend to get their posts flooded off the TL by high-volume accounts such as me (mcc) asking cursed C# questions at odd hours. Wouldn't it be cool if you could get the best elements of a sort-by-last-post view and a sort-by-account view in a single screen? (See screenshots at link.)

When I started writing and publishing open-source software about 15 years ago, I was pretty radical about it. I only used permissive licenses like MIT or BSD, as all I cared about was reach. Using a copyleft license with strings attached seemed to hinder that reach. Getting another A-category company

If you haven't been able to keep up with my blistering pace of one blog post per year, I don't blame you. There's a lot going on right now. It's a busy time. But let's pause and take a moment to celebrate that Elon Musk destroyed Twitter. I can't possibly

“Open Source Economics” and the “Open Source Economy” are regularly discussed in the context of how to improve open source software’s sustainability, contributor diversity and ecosystem quality. Too often, though, the use of the word “economics” brings incorrect assumptions about the problems to be solved.

Bruce Perens is angry. A veritable Jeremiah amid a throng of open source Pollyannas at OpenUK's State of Open Con 24 in London, the co-founder of the Open Source Initiative (OSI) and the Open Source Definition, railed against what he sees as corporate capture of the movement he helped to kickstart.

Open source doesn't mean open build. Why open source projects aren't required to product all the builds.

What is it that makes you uncomfortable deploying at 5pm on a Friday? Let's talk about that.

Attached: 1 image Traveling while queer is so often an experience of weird looks, people trying to reconcile the beard and the skirt, quick vibe-checks when entering a business to make sure I feel safe. It's an absolute delight to stop into a little breakfast place as we're getting on the road, and have the big questions be about how we liked our drinks because the person making them was trying something new today. (The answer is that they were excellent.) Genuine friendliness to the queer couple in a small town is such a nice way to start a day.

Just saw a bumper sticker: “please let me merge before I cry” 😂

Make the compiler check your assumptions before any code runs.

I added some validation and link checking to this docs folder about a week ago. It's already pointed out something broken on three different pull requests. #DocOps turns out is a good investment, even though I was sure I knew what I was doing and these tools would help "other people" 😆

v8 is planning to add support for captureless lookbehinds to their regex engine. This would close a huge ReDoS vulnerability! And eventually make its way into Node👀 #v8 #regex #redos #re2 #node #nodejs #javascript https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=14435

I am choosing to log off, but if anyone’s still thinking tech.lgbt is a good space, your admin David is currently propping up a conspiracy theory written by the Admin of woem.men about The Bad Space that refers to my instance and others as a cult that blocks a huge amount of trans femmes. Thank you for reigniting a genuinely traumatic time in mine and many other people’s lives. I look forward to the transphobia, erasure, threats upon me and mine, and whatever other bullying your friends have in store. Also, get fucked 👍

I've been getting a lot of those "your parcel couldn't be delivered" phishing attacks lately and if you're a human with a phone, you probably have been too. Just as a brief reminder, they look like this: These get through all the technical controls that exist at my telco and

Prompted by having read the prequel novel The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, I recently decided to re-read the Hunger Games novels. First of all, I was curious about the prequel - how can a prequel about the villain of the series tie in? The prequel tells the (love) story of a teenage Coriolanus Snow, who later becomes president (dictator would be the more appropriate term) of Panem. What an odd book to read, because how can you make a novel about an entitled narcissist, who treats people like possessions, possibly compelling? While his rise to patriotism is sometimes interesting, [...]

I am so fucking sick of “Oops!” And “Oh No!” In error messages. “omg bestie I’m like, sooooooo sorry, there was an error but I’m afraid that’s my little secret ;) try again dickhead” Please just tell me there was an authentication error. So I can Google it. And provide useful information to your exhausted support team.

Go first came onto my radar about 9 years ago when I came across MuMax during my PhD studies. While I’ve touched it briefly, I wouldn’t consider myself to have used it in anger until recently, when I started a job that uses it as one of it’s primary languages for API development. I’ve had experience in writing C and C++ code, but more recently I’ve done a lot of Python, so going back to Go has felt oddly like a throwback to those compiled languages I’ve used before, with a bit of modern sparkle.

It may seem silly, but go run is my favorite part about go. Want to run your code? go run main.go. It is so stupidly simple that I could tell my mom about this command, and she would immediately understand. Like with most things in go, the real power in this command is in the effortless understanding of how to build and run everyone’s code. But I can run node main.

Ah, another day on the Fediverse. What should be sup on today? **spins the wheel** The pointer spins round and around, past “everyone sends you pictures of their pets”, “you live post about this weeks mental breakdown”, “death threats” and “a nice simple conversation with a new mutual” It slows; moving gently past “spam wave”, “blocking is abuse” and “John Mastodon” Inching closer to its destination you hold your breath, it seems like it’s landing on “meta conversations about meta conversations” but you hope it will be “you will spend the day local-only posting to the people on your instance, checking in with them and asking how they’ve been” Alas, the pointer has picked its target. “admins can read your DMs btw”

@jwz@mastodon.social My key memory of it is watching a friend watch in horror as it sent a group text to his furry contact list and non-furry contact list, revealing their numbers to each other. At least it respected the division of contact groups.

I don’t think I appreciated how incredibly loud airplanes are until we had good noise cancelling headphone technology. Soooo loud! (And I don’t mean crying babies, they are allowed to cry, being a baby is hard work)
