@[email protected] thanks! I'm aware you didn't mean it that way, but... triggers be triggers, and I guessed you'd want to know 🤷‍♂️​

@[email protected] as the son of and father of people with dysgraphia ​I agree with the sentiment of the post (see also learning to draw) but that 'everyone' cuts a bit. They both got hurt pretty badly by people assuming they could 'just fix that', and with my son for a while I was one of the people doing the hurting

@[email protected] @[email protected] ​I managed to get the compile to complete by shutting down everything else on the machine, and the compiled result only lists "en" as an available language, but it still seemed to want to generate 126 locales while building bonfire_common which was what made me think I was missing something.

We aren't even asking why ICE is even at these protests full of white ICU nurses and moms in vans. Like, why are they there? Looking for a Mexican drug gang in a suburban roundabout? Finding the secret foreign terror hiding in the trunk of a minivan?

They aren't even pretending to do "immigration enforcement" they're just suppressing dissent. Lower your head and put that sign down and they will go away. Say "yes officer" and "no officer" and show your papers and no one gets dead.*

mastodon.social/users/GeePaw... It's a painful realization that I missed two programming languages I've absolutely written code in while replying to @[email protected] here. XML and yaml. Do better, industry, do better...

@[email protected] my just about to go to university son has deep dived into 3d graphics and physics simulations as a hobby over the last few years, and it threw him a while back when I answered a straight forward question on memory allocation with 'no idea, I've never written anything in an unmanaged language'. ​

@[email protected] hmm. I suspect I'll miss some stuff, but:

-Spectrum BASIC

+html (first paid work ever, well before becoming a 'developer')

+sql (I was a data analyst before accidentally transitioning to coding by getting so bored of my data analyst job that I automated it with...)

-vbscript in excel

+c#

-Python

+VB.net

+f#

-clojure

+elm

-ruby (a language I thought I'd enjoy and really didn't 😞 )

+haskell

+typescript

Fair play to Minneapolis. This is the fight back the whole US needs.

"I can teach you to bind hair into a net to catch heat," the wizard said, "using arcane counting and a pair of fine wands."

After a while, the man said "Isn't this knitting?"

"This, too, is magic."

@[email protected] ​Oh thanks, I'll definitely keep an eye for the future. It looks like it won't support all the features from ex_cldr this project uses until at least its 0.3 release though, so I'd need to make much larger changes than I was hoping from the parent project to go that route at the moment.

Today I was going to do ... something?

What I actually did was update one piece of software that I accidentally misconfigured, which took down the database, which then turned out to be too old for the new version of the software (after I fixed the misconfiguration) which I then upgraded that broke the database backup scripts.

And then I washed my hair.

@[email protected] ​Unfortunately my hair is twenty years too late for "who can clear the largest moshpit space" competative head banging. It was fun while it lasted though.

@[email protected] ​Such a weird franchise to reboot. Especially because stylistically it looks very similar to the last movie version, which while not high art was really good at nailing that style.

Anyone know the next place to look for what might be requesting these, or force them to be generated in turn rather than (it appears) concurrently?

Context: I don't know elixir, but for reasons I'm running my own @[email protected] instance on bare metal and I'm happy to mess in source code if needed.

Question for anyone who's used ex_cldr and/or gettext in #elixir - I'm trying to compile something in a memory constrained environment and the gettext back end has started finding 130 locales it wants to generate on every build. I think I've configured cldr to have only one allowed language, but the locales still get generated (and cause an out of memory error)

@[email protected] ​well, at least your serendipitous post means I have clean hair, so thank you for that...

@[email protected] ​I am currently (checks watch) 7 hours and 49 minutes late for when I told myself I would wash my hair this morning.
