#lazyweb Anyone know how to compress this glob better?

[A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9].[A-z0-9][A-z0-9][A-z0-9]

(A find regex is also acceptable, but rather invoke "rm -rf" with the glob rather than screw up a find invocation)

Dear #lazyweb friends, this creature showed up in our Foodsharing haul today - what the heck is it?

My partner calls it "Cthulhu-lemon" and says it's a sign for impending doom, but maybe there are more practical applications.

Like putting it in a salad or something..?

#lazyweb Masto friends, does anyone have a helpful resource about disabling or unloading device profiles on #macOS?

Any #lazyWeb #ElectricalEngineering folks know of an archive of pre-slop-era #circuit designs with annotations somebody could use for learning / hobby fabrication?

I'm looking both for exercises and useful things. Maybe I want to graft an audio interface into an old casio keyboard or z-waveify my air fryer to send push notifications.

Internet search gets me some decent options but about half the time its pinterest or some seo/slop blog stuffed with the diagrams i want but lifted from context. I want the "i want to achieve x" statement too. I want the though process that goes into the choices.

Sometimes theres a "derrived from X" on a diagram but it doesn't say why he dropped these units or added those ...

Dear #music #LazyWeb,

many years ago (before its acquisition), I was a big fan of #LastFM. To this day it was the best music recommendation system I ever used. Deezer's (and I hear Spotify's), doesn't come anywhere close.

I would like to find something to fill that void - to help me find artists that I would otherwise not, based on what I listen to.

What is a good option these days?

I've been looking for the name of a field of study. It seems to me that there are fundamental challenges when you use the same channel to communicate controls and data, and yet this is a common occurrence. For example, in talking to other people we can say a command from a quote, but hopefully it will not be interpreted as a direct command from us. LLMs struggle with distinguishing between their prompt (with controls) and their data input. But it seems to be a more general problem. There are things like SQL injection and hard to understand man pages for command line interfaces (should I type that square bracket or does it mean the argument is optional?).

Maybe there are math theorems about this? Maybe it is impossible to avoid some issues, but I expect there are practices for clear and secure communication despite only having one channel for data and controls.

What is the name of this problem? Is it solved? If not are there principles for dealing with this problem?

Dear #lazyweb, weird email #postfix spam issues with Google Mail, mail from my dev server keeps going to spam but if you look at the mail headers it says:

spf=pass
dmarc=pass

So wtf? How can I stop it going to spam? 😩
