Me: “But, Lord, what about when there was only one set of footprints?”
The Lord: “Sandpeople walk single file to hide their numbers.”

Interesting article on preparation for tech careers summarizing rural/urban differences. Access differences are trivial, but school-based experiences are important. thehill.com/homenews/education

He's always been brilliant but #RedMeansRecording is now easily my fave tech #YouTuber

Why?

Because he actually fucking cares about people.

Every comments page, every forum is stuffed with Clarksons, gammons, flagshaggers, TERFs and outright Nazis.

So this video is like a glass of cold, superfuckingtasty water in a desert of fucknuts:

Today I discovered whocanuse.com and I wanted to yell it to the world, but 55 people will have to do.

Hidden in plain sight. I took this a couple of weeks ago, and didn’t think it was exciting enough to post. Now I look at it again though, I really like how unexciting it is. For the frog, that’s kind of the point. #frogs #MacroPhotography

Question for the hive-mind:

What do you call growing a garden under a fully mature forest canopy?

It's not really a #forestgarden as the word is generally used today. Those seem to be intentionally planted bottom up.

It's a form of #permaculture, but so are so many other things, and the word has been so abused I'd rather stay away.

#agroforestry seems to have been taken over by 'small patch farming with trees nearby'.

There has to be a better word for this:

I did not have "owls attacking drip irrigation" on my Small Farmer Problems bingo card.

The actual writing of code is one of the most infrequent and relatively simpler aspects of my job. The most difficult and time consuming task is trying to understand the poorly written legacy code and having the alleged Subject Matter Experts answer domain questions. I don't see how an LLM AI could be able to do this. In fact, nothing short of waterboarding certain people will help with this.

long post: thank you letter to the Fediverse and its people 

The Fediverse is literaly the coolest thing I have ever discovered. So much freedom, diversity, kindness, wholesomeness, funny jokes without the offensive edginess (you can be funny without being offensive?! impossible!) supporting niche communities and independent developers and being concerned about internet safety... it's so hard to list all of them.

From these past few weeks or a month that I've been here, I've never felt so alive and welcomed in an internet community. This place gave me hope that the internet can still be a friendly and safe (kinda?) place to interact and be yourself without society being overly judgmental.

Thank you everyone for making the internet a wonderful place. 💜

Happy Father’s Day!

Most insect dads don’t do much, but male Belostomatid water bugs carry the eggs on his back after the female leaves, guarding them and making sure they have the right conditions until they hatch.
