i think a lot about how apparently, someone visiting pink floyd's studio in the mid-70s noticed they had several minimoogs set up with gaffer tape all over them, because when they got a sound they liked, they'd put the tape over the knobs so the settings wouldn't get changed, and invoice the record label for another fresh minimoog. i think this is how you're actually supposed to manage python software installations, just buy a new computer every time you finally get the correct packages set up
Would anybody mind doing me a quick favor? My instance isn't very federated right now.

Friday afternoon reminder to not empty your inbox at the expense of someone else's. US holiday weeks are always complicated weeks and this heat makes it even more complicated. Schedule some emails, choose not to send others. Stay home with your gadgets and your neighbors and your hydrating liquids and have yourself a summer.

Really, really, really still trying to find My People here on Mastodon. Am I on the wrong server or something? I'm a self-employed #artist / #maker / #writer ... I make #ceramics ( #pottery )... dye #yarn ... #knit ... read #sciencefiction ... have two #dogs and eleven #cats ... am a recent #widow who loves to talk about what a wild ride #grief is ... and I'm a #Floridian scared shitless for my #BiPOC and #lgbtqia friends and family. Is that enough tags? Hello? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Sometime last year, something clicked. His anxiety became no worse than your average anxious dog, and he chilled out big time.

He still enjoys big hikes and lots of exercise, but he no longer needs it to not destroy my home. It's been pretty amazing since then, I have been calling right now the good dog years. I have no idea how old he is beyond at least 6, so I have no idea how many years we will get, but I'm so excited to enjoy as many as I can with my best friend.

Do any of the developers out there have thoughts on how to avoid saying bad things about old developers due to annoyances in the old code? I always try to remember that you never know the circumstances that the old code was written under, but I am hoping for some more kind approaches :-). #php #WebDev
