Two Latin words for a star or constellation: 'aster' and 'sidus'. They glimmer across English: disaster: an ill-starred event. asterisk: a little star. astronaut: a star-sailor. consider: to observe the stars. desire: to wish upon a star.

Increasingly finding technical blogs without RSS feeds, while not fancy tech it really aid at least me seeing your content. I want to become your subscriber. So when your statically deploying your fancy jamstack blogs, consider including an RSS feed maybe?

there is probably a bunch of interesting psychology research into why everyone uses red, too. Because it stands out? Because "red" is only three letters? Because red is for danger? It hadn't really occurred to me that everyone else does the same thing that I do :)

Spending money helps protect you against COVID. If you haven't got the opportunity to spend some money, that famous British Bulldog Spirit also offers suitable protection. Especially if you have some bunting up.

I honestly feel like basically all software engineers who work on infrastructure software need to have some level of “ops” experience in order to develop empathy for people using their software, and we’d all be in a better place for it.

One of the neighbours has someone visiting with a new-born and the crying is like a dagger to my heart. I should have given birth two weeks ago had I not miscarried again... I wish I didn't feel so much sometimes. Sigh. Onwards! (after a very small cry of my own)

We've been watching "Mr. Robot" lately and I'm realizing a thing that feels nice about watching it is it is really a wish fulfillment fantasy, where the fantasy is a bunch of people are casually using Linux and they never lose time screwing with video drivers or making wifi work

Hi. I'm 25 years old. Sometimes I have to hold cups with two hands because my tremors get so bad I'll drop the cup if I don't. Often, I use two hands to hold a cup and still need assistance to drink from it. When you punch down, you hit ppl like me.

When you replace "Owned slaves" with "Was an active and willing participant in a vast conspiracy to kidnap children from their families in order to force them into industrial and sexual servitude" It becomes harder to write slave owning off as just a blot on one's record.
