Ok. I'm out. I finally gave up on setting up my own Mastodon or Gotosocial or Takahē server, and just went to hachyderm. I'm @zellyn@hachyderm.io See @timbray's post for the reasoning: tbray.org/ongoing/When/202x/…

The world’s financial, travel, and healthcare infrastructure rests entirely on a few underfunded projects supported by volunteers. If we had all donated even a small amount back to Microsoft and Crowdstrike, they could have paid someone to prevent this problem

The BitCraft Alpha starting on April 2nd looks really interesting: hub.bitcraftonline.com/ref/G… I found them by listening to the Developer Voices podcast, and learning about SpaceTimeDB 😂

@TylerFCloutier I found your talk on Developer Voices fascinating. Two big questions: 1) you mentioned being able to see data from any point in history: does stdb do that? I didn't see anything in the docs

2) As a distributed systems engineer, the first question I want to ask is "how does it scale"? Do you have docs on the architecture of stdb and how it scales to MMORP scale and weird distribution of #players per game geography?

I loved it when @FogleBird did it, so here's Advent of Code 2023 day 5, golfed down to a page of python:

Hey @FogleBird, it's been a while, but I'm back to really enjoying your `gg` library! So easy to use!

@mickeynp Hey there! Do you have a prediction for when the Emacs 29 edition of Mastering Emacs is expected? I've been holding off really digging into Emacs until 29 stabilizes, since so many things (lsp, tree-sitter, use-package, etc.) seem to have moved into Emacs itself…

I know I can buy the book now and get free updates, but honestly, I'm more likely to keep my enthusiasm if I dive into it all at once! 🙂

Hey @aptshadow, when will Lords of Uncreation get WhisperSync?

You really should think about switching to Mastodon… :-)

Hey @getbumpr folks. I love your little app. I would _love_ if it were possible to make different github repos open in different browsers: I use Chrome for work and Firefox for personal browsing.

@jessfraz That's a strange business model. I clearly understand the useful things Stripe is doing that couldn't be a well-written Rust library. KittyCAD, not so much. Funding a small team of Rust and CAD experts to build open source libraries seems much better…

"KittyCAD is an infrastructure company, bringing together everything required to build tools for hardware designers. Our vision is to make these tools as programmable as the rest of the internet." 👀 Check out @thejordannoone's latest blog post HERE ➤ kittycad.io/blog/infra-for-h…

That said, given how horrible the current tools are, I wish KittyCAD all the best: movement in the space can't be bad :-)
Can someone just find a wealthy corporation or individual to pay Nintendo like $10 million or whatever so they will make their Switch APIs open source, so all the game engines can target them without silliness?

Supposedly it cost something like 4.6 million dollars to train Chat GPT, but humanity finally created a reasonable way to create `jq` commands!
Is this Java code fully golfed, or can you make it shorter?

You know that story about the consultant charging $10,000 to hit something with a hammer? That's me, every time I work in Java. The hammer blow is the 20-line PR I eventually write, and the $10,000 is the two weeks of trying to understand Guice injection and layers of interfaces
