Very interesting so far. Chapter two was a series of organized and insightful observations from engineering management, and while I found some specifics to disagree with I also found that every topic presented is a critical thing to think about while managing a team. In that way it provides an important reference, and I find that kind of book valuable. I had to take some notes: blog.notmet.net/2022/12/an-elegant-puzzle/

@neofight78 @nathanstocks I definitely find it difficult to keep up... I typically find some catch-up time, though, when we go visit family for a week and the afternoons drag on.

@bwbeach nice! I tried doing it in Haskell a couple years ago and was really slow 😆 Still haven't gotten much further in Haskell, but it was certainly a learning experience.

Just doing it in this year - saves me time over doing it in Rust, and also I haven't been doing so much Python recently, so it's nice to get back to it for a bit. If I have extra time I'll probably go back and complete some in too, I'd like to build more proficiency there still, especially in the tricky algorithmic problems that come later.

This year I started a group at work to find other folks interested in . Partly to make myself more likely to finish, partly to share the fun, and partly to try to find a community I can raise up and leverage. This isn't the only way to find the other nerds, but it may be the most fun.

off to a good start! I don't stay up late to do them (because central time US, work and !young) but still plan to get through them this year. When work doesn't slow me down too much I do.

Just came across a thread on reddit's r/selfhosted of a newly minted admin confused and worried they could access their users' mailboxes.

Money quote:
"What is troubling me is that as a user I always assumed the content of my email messages was encrypted and hidden even to the system admin"

No wonder that people are worried about the fact that "admins can in theory read your DMs on Mastodon" when THIS is their general misunderstanding of how hosted stuff works.

I find THAT worrying.

The guts of these things are a neat look at how to manufacturer something useful by mostly bending metal creatively.

@trinsec yup. The faceplate screw was the only thing holding the plastic on, but the internal conductors weren't making proper contact anymore.

I thought I'd replaced all of these outlets that are falling apart in our old house. Nope - missed one.

@DiverDoc @worldhistoryfacts @histodons this is a great poster, I'm gonna consider getting a print for the wall. loc.gov/item/98518433/

A 1937 poster demonizing jaywalking. In the early 20th century, it became clear that the proliferation of cars was dangerous for pedestrians. In order to make city streets easier for drivers to navigate, auto companies invented the crime of "jaywalking" ("jay was slang for "fool") in order to get pedestrians out of the streets. It was successful. Soon, after streets went from being places of commerce and communication to the domain of automobiles.

@lazzarello nice! Yeah I've been wondering how they can afford to do any support, but they seem to be able to. And the instance isn't totally anemic either...

@acjay @finity I hope so, I've submitted a change to the codebase to add exactly that :) github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p

@lazzarello if you're just looking for a virtual private server that runs all the time you might do better with something like they discuss here: lowendtalk.com/

I found TNA Hosting through there, and now have a $5/month VPS that's just fine for many use cases. I find Google/AWS cloud VPS's better for short term, or quick scaling.

@finity @RabBrucesSpider1 it would also be cool if pictures could be edited to add it, or if people could propose Alt text
