Attached: 1 image Is anyone aware of a #markup #language for #InteriorDesign? I read this great article (https://luke.hsiao.dev/blog/housing-documentation/) on writing technical documentation for your house, and I'm building a #Hugo template for just this. I'd love to also document my home's room dimensions, where the outlets are, etc. so I can (a) make simple 3D models (b) create a clickable SVG (c) extract dimensions easily (for determining if new furniture/wallhangings will fit). Any ideas? I'll probably end up bodging my own together…

Attached: 2 images Given we now know governments are spying on people using encrypted messaging through #notifications (to get data or metadata, based on what the specific service sends), the “turn on notifications” prompt in #Signal not having a “no” option but stating “we’ll remind you again later” and continuing to prompt you at regular intervals is now less of a dark pattern to increase usage and more of a #security issue that should be fixed right away. https://www.reuters.com/technology/cybersecurity/governments-spying-apple-google-users-through-push-notifications-us-senator-2023-12-06/ CC @Mer__edith@mastodon.world

A little unconventional #coding #tip: Always copy and paste code. At least at first. Don’t overthink it. And: Don’t start refactoring right away. Why? Because you might think you’re creating almost similar behaviour but you don’t know that really until you actually customise what you pasted. Refractoring based on the assumption of redundancy instead of the fact of it is premature refactoring. Once you’ve specialised your pasted code, then look for redundancy and then refactor. #dev
As someone with Palestinian and Jewish friends of varying political persuasions, right now I see that all of them are hurting. They are traumatized by historical, recent, and ongoing violence, and at the same time they are coping with a rising tide of bigotry. I'm not sure I've got the right takes, and indeed I am constantly evolving in my understanding and views. But I promise I will never stand idly by when you and your community are suffering injustice.

Someone keeps emptying the teapot and then not refilling it. 🫖 I would like to speak with a manager. I’m very disappointed in the service in this establishment. #WFH
I'm anti-war because the more I learn about history, the more it's clear that wars have a legacy that extends for decades or centuries beyond when they officially end. And I don't mean only the lives lost. The propaganda drives people insane and clouds their vision for decades. All of the things people "had" to do to "win" end up bringing about unintended and unanticipated consequences that never really disappear from society. The madness incites more madness.

Some of y'all want the humiliation experience for free. I charge for that. #morning #coffee #holidays #nsfw
If you use #Patreon to support a YouTube creator, change your name to something funny. They have a tendency to just copy and paste your name into the credits. I've been having so much fun for the last month or so 😂
told my manager I needed to take a half day for my knee again making conversation, she said she didn’t realize it was that bad and asked what kind of accident I got into “my 30s. the traumatic event was entering my 30s.” 😂🫠
No agenda no meeting. "It's a work party." And? If it needs the company outlook calendar it needs an agenda.
There are no "tech demo gods." There is only prepared or not prepared. #DevRel
If someone you know wants to share a thread from Twitter in their blog post, remind them that only the first tweet is free nowadays. Seeing the rest of the thread — or even that there is a thread instead of a weird context-free opening tweet — requires a login.
having a job is like being married except my employer actually fucks me ayyyooo

I wrote something for one of my most favourite writing projects. Like all my writing lately, it’s not the cheeriest piece. But it does have a better end. https://www.ithoughtaboutthatalot.com/2023/wicked-step-mother
I was talking to some folks who had to talk me off the idea of a hiring blacklist. It's not like there's been a complete wall: warm referrals still make it. But cold applications? I might as well have a name on some nginx bad bot list with the turn around time for rejections. And I wasn't the only one (similarly aged folks with more contracting backgrounds, different ethnic and national backgrounds) feeling it. It doesn't shake off the sharpness of the lack of income nor the numbness of feeling more than incapable of taking care of oneself. Like I'm more scared than I expected of catching COVID or having some life event that I can't even begin to afford. If employment is so tied to one's ability to take care of themselves, how are we not all living in a feudal state? The social net is of different sizes - if it exists where you live - Florida's unemployment services (aka reemployment support, their words) do more to drill and shame than to support and direct.
Whoever came up with the idea to add "-cli" on the end of command line tools needs to die in a fire. "huggingface-cli" is the worst command name I've ever seen.
Oh this is why people were talking about morality and tech, lol https://www.theregister.com/2023/12/08/hashicorp_openbao_fork/ Tbh lol, y'all might not like this, but it doesn't fucking matter. If the fork's not community-run, it's nothing more than a "revenue measuring" contest between two tech CEOs over adoption (because big adopters acquire a lot and accelerate adoption - look at the virus of VS Code despite the vacuum of desktop alternatives people don't have to mention in their dotfiles). The Linux Foundation has (more or less) transformed into the perfect example of Commercial Open Source (open for you, plenty of funds for me but not non-corporate maintainers hahaha sike) extension of Microsoft (personal viewpoint) so even them taking in Terraform will be icky. But then again, it's not like we got coops fabricating chips so it's the best we fucking got.
People who’ve been through the end of a marriage and feel comfortable sharing, publicly or privately, what helped you? Did life just feel like a relentless firehose of shit for a while after? Really needing an injection of hope right now.
The official #GameAwards stream on YouTube, including the pre-show, is 3 hours and 37 minutes long. The trailers total ONE HOUR AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTES. The award acceptance speeches meanwhile, including the few in the pre-show, total just TWELVE MINUTES. Fuck that.

I’m now AFK for the next month! 🎉 I’m planning to do some much needed resting and eating my weight in yummy Christmas food.
After this codeforward conference and govai which was running at the same time, I got a better sense of the wild amount of fomo and hype and llms being pushed on teams without having real agency, and I get the anti-llms reaction by developers a bit more. Also realized, through my new found lenses, how political software development is in companies (which I traumatizingly didn’t realize before), and damn am I glad to not be in this rat race. #llms 1/
To learn python, I might write a bot to post “The UK Government is a fascist government” once a day.
Wrote a new little tool to help determine the minimum OPA version needed to evaluate any provided Rego files. Published today as #mcov. I know *I* will use it extensively, but if it's helpful to anyone else, all the better. On that and some other projects I'm involved in my new "December hacks" blog. https://www.eknert.com/blog/december-hacks

Measuring work linearly in hours makes no sense. I get progressively more useless the more hours I work. Those last hours are just really expensive theater that actually hurts people. Makes no sense.
Autism: I must eat breakfast at 9am ADHD: oops forgot Autism: that’s okay, we usually have our first meal of the day at lunch, 12pm on the dot ADHD: I see your “12pm” and raise you “17.56pm” Autism: I fucking hate you
