@cwebber I agree, usedf properly they are a really good ready reference, at one time we either made our own or used page markers.

Probably still do, only this write on marker a reference to the study guide that covers same topic.

Those laminated study guides that most people associate with lazy students? I love them, they're great quick summaries of a discipline to put next to your desk while exploring that discipline when it isn't your main thing.

Plus being laminated means they're great bath reads!

This may be useful. If you embed a Mastodon post into a @writeas_dev blog change the width to 600

width="600"

this will fit the post across the normal blog width.

Just sharing on my blog now (will fedrate back here) it is really good feature having embed.

All I want for Christmas is a cockroach :)

I am sure there was a song called All I want for Christmas is a Beatle so the above is a play on words on that,

+1 we can avoid the can of worms we are going to open up butting up a single pic of a hollywood logo even if the context is to review the movie.

@humanetech @tommi @bookwyrm @inventaire

Could also be a good way to showcase movies made with free software e.g blender oen movie project and perhaps videos on peertube.

@tommi posed an idea for a #Fediverse #Movie database in #Lemmy

lemmy.ml/post/133722

And also on #FediverseTown

fediverse.town/t/fediverse-pla

Candidate existing platforms to build from are @bookwyrm and @inventaire

But why fork, and create separate independent projects? Imho it would be great if there was a generic Fediverse Directory platform, with which you can create collections of any type of item, be they #Books or #Movies or what-have-you.

With plugins for templates + #UI widgets.

How do folks feel about spectrumnews.org as far as being respectful and useful coverage of autism research and news?

I think perhaps courses cover quite a lot more than just programming, lots of theory perhaps legal issues.

People seem to be leaving college not employment ready too,

@zleap @mametsuko
Yeah, I would say it depends to a large degree on the area of study. I definitely wouldn't entrust my health to a doctor who didn't have a degree in medicine, but if we're talking about something like programming, I don't think it makes a difference if you went to college or were self-taught.
