Gotta love kids show theme songs that say exactly who the characters are and what they're gonna do. 'cause these kids need the *facts*. Like, "Only so many hours in a day: I got blocks need stacked, toy trucks need a *vroom vroom*--what's👏 it👏about👏?

TIL This very handy subreddit exists

There have been a bunch of times where I saw a bird off in a distance and could only manage a single photo before it flew away

already noticing writing fiction is not like writing science: it doesn't have to be new and original. if someone did the same thing, your version is still valuable. can stop paranoidly scanning for "has it been done before" and "has it been done before, and better"

I had a story idea. I know the theme and 'moral' I'm whatever about filling in the rest. sort of a mathematician's novel.

Love this new tool I've been using from Interactive Brokers. I tell it what I care about ethically and it grades my stock portfolio based on the companies I invest in and their adherence to my moral preferences. Its a great way to invest and ensure you do so with an ethical motivation.
This is one of the portfolios I use for algorithmic trading. I'm trying to program into the algorithms a sense of ethics in how it trades and it seems to be working.

The Dispossessed; The Left Hand of Darkness; maybe spoiler
There's a turn in #TheDispossessed where Shevek realises the society of his affluent and welcoming hosts on Urras are masking the harsher realities of the common people. There's a similar transition in The Left Hand of Darkness when Genly is kidnapped and imprisoned.

J'ai fini "Pole dance, ma vie en équilibre" de @juliettetaka
C'était aussi intriguant qu'intéressant et très sensible. Beaucoup de détails techniques, et une manière intéressante de découvrir cette pratique. Je recommande ! 🙂

How do I learn to love C? Most of my experience with it in college was doing things that I would find easier to do in other languages.
I feel like I just have the wrong mindset when writing C. Does anyone have any recommendations on books, videos, etc. that they think would be helpful?
Boosts appreciated.

This is also a help: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/minimal-example-of-gdbus-in-python/3165/2
The object skeleton / interface skeleton stuff is *really* extra and the more straightforward path of registering an "object", which is really just a handler function, isn't pointed out explicitly even in the C examples.
Useful resource if you're trying to use d-bus with Python GIO bindings. Docs are scarce about this specifically, so it helps to have an example. (probably less troublesome if you're used to the bindings generally)

Long shot, but one of my fiends / ex-colleague is in limbo regarding jobs, she is awesome at @rstats and anything related to #OpenScience, #FAIRData, image analysis and processing, and #bioinformatics. If you hear about anything in and around #Meanjin / #Brisbane, or remote, please let me know.
