Coding hot take: Even if you use a squash workflow that doesn't mean you should put up a sequence of commits where an individual commit is buggy, put in place without a meaningful commit message, etc.
Today I built a setup where I'm spinning baking trays using my oscilloscope. Somehow this feels more sane than the software stack that motivated the physical hack.
Finding out what happened to someone via an obit search absolutely sucks. People drift in an out of channels and projects so it's hard to know when an absence is concerning or just the passage of time.
Linguistic question: Does anyone have an English or non-English singular word which expresses the concept of a door between rooms or a door that is between an interior and exterior space sized appropriately for a human to walk through in an upright manner and nothing else?
I have realized today that 'door' has been overloaded with any form of hatch (e.g. car door, cabinet door, appliance door, etc). The closest I've thought of so far is "Door within a doorway" (though even that definition may be flawed if the doorway is open as the door is affixed to the doorway, but isn't 'within' it anymore)

Today I was told that too many of my board games teaches start with "and now you get to pick which evil capitalist you want to play as"
