Apparently Shandell, Elliott, and Grant woke up one morning and chose violence when picking their paper's title

@[email protected] That should be Termux, sorry
@[email protected] Boox tablets will run termix if that's close enough? A real shell, but on Android

Using Ink in a #godot game? I built myself an Ink highlighter for Godot's script editor, and if you're feeling brave you can give it a try and help it get to a state where it can be published in the asset store (which would require at a minimum at least one Windows user telling me it works).

Ah, rain in the basement. Just what I always wanted.
@[email protected] @[email protected] Something about IT seems to bring this out in people. I was once asked to help word an email to a customer explaining that we could not honestly assert that the bespoke software we were being commissioned to write had been deployed for at least two years in a production environment without a major security incident given a) it didn't exist and b) it running in anyone else's production environment would suggest a rather brutal breaking of the NDA we'd already signed with them.
@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Running my own instance I like the idea of tags pub as I don't want to set indiscriminate relays (which are not fully supported by the server yet anyway) of manage a massive federation list that would never include other single user instances I don't already know about in some way.
@[email protected] @[email protected] I'm following along as I'm finding both sides of the debate making good points here. Would you be able to expand a bit on why the effect of a bot boosting a hashtag would be "to harvest follows and attention that would otherwise go directly to the original posters"? A boost, by definition, is the original posters post so I feel like I must be missing a second order effect that is obvious to you.

@[email protected] It's almost like picking a different architecture changes how you solve your problem, rather than removing it. Who would have thought?
(Not that some problems aren't easier or harder to solve with some architectures, but I do get a bit tired of the 'do this, it will make it easy!')
@[email protected] Some of it is so much more banal than the creepiness and directly sexual as well. The very first professional tech conference I went to, I chatted to a female speaker and found out that (in context of the conference having paid to fly her across the atlantic to give a technical talk because she was a world class expert on the subject) she had just been told that she needed to choose between taking a pay cut to move to "developer relations" or get sacked because "a really good engineering candidate came on the market, and you're so good with people skills". No points for guessing the gender of the new team member.

Blue coder needs coffee, badly

@[email protected] @[email protected] The release note was from the next release that included the fix, given I apparently haven't had enough coffee to write clearly this morning yet.
@[email protected] @[email protected] Early in my career I accidently wrote a parser for an open source project that restarted from the beginning of the string every character, going one further each time. Never been quite so embarrassed by a release note before or since: "[x] parser performance improved by three orders of magnitude on average config file"

@[email protected] @[email protected] Yeap, gluten free food required over here and we do something like this regularly. Also chonky varient with embedded veg: soften some sliced courgette, pepper, or spinach in a pan and tip a slightly thicker layer of the egg mix on top. Try and have enough veg to cover the base of the pan so the egg at the bottom doesn't over cook before the top sets. Bit of garlic with the courgette or nutmeg with spinach goes nicely.
@[email protected] Ostensibly the person using the word ostensibly meant ostensibly
"Ostensibly for Risus of all things. Takes me back."
"He wrote Risus as well."
"Ah!"

Whelp, found out today that someone wanting to improve the clarity and engagement of their #ttrpg writing hadn't heard of 'Toast of the Town' so I was able to give them enough experience to immediately level up.
Thanks, @[email protected]
