Embedded-systems-adjacent jack of all tiers, left-swerving but not as active as I should be (wip). Born in the late 20th century, at 350 ppm.

Chronic dabbler. I have many more instruments than I can play well, more knitting needles than finished pieces, and more plants than my brain can care for.

Somewere in the Bermuda triangle of non-binary, agender, and genderfluid, but mostly look like a guy with long hair and occasionally nail polish.

(we should not be using git for deployment in the way we are, and the deployment should be configured to disable all the line ending fuckery, and we're working on it. But git should not fuck with line endings.)

Realized I'm not really using my smartwatch for smartwatch things and got the battery of my old analog watch replaced.

Downsides: not safe for the lab at work, no day-of-month (both fixable with other watches, yes).
Upsides: never notifies me of anything, a little ritual to sync the clock every now and then, thinner and less in the way.

That last, one, really. I noticed I was always taking my watch off for comfort and now I don't anymore?

@typeswitch @pierogiburo right but solar time varies with longitude and as a result so does how "wrong" the TZ is

🤦🏿‍♂️Actually, nevermind.

Why is everything like this?

The author supposedly went on an anti-woke, right-wing podcast to promote the movie while trashing other books and movies that do have a "woke" message or that have inclusive representation? But... why?

Why was that necessary?

Conventional commit format sucks. What you really want is to use git trailers. The subject line of a commit message is PRIME real estate, and shouldn't be wasted on tools

Additional problem: having to put speakers everywhere so the doors make the right creaky and hissing noises.
