“Being ok with sucking at something while learning” is an extremely undervalued skill.
As is “being happy for people that are better than you”.
Super important for
- learning how to code
- learning a new language
- art, music, podcasting, cooking
- really everything.
Don’t forget to teach your kids these skills.
Also, demonstrate these behaviors.
Let your kids see you being bad at something and not giving up and staying positive.

Ah, polls default to multi-select polls! I've modified that now (which seems to have reset voting).

Say, Mastodon: when three people have cast their vote, how can this be (yes, I pressed 'refresh')? 😕

I wrote a little thing about FTC consent decrees, and Twitter, and how all the people who were facing potential criminal charges for not complying with the FTC consent decree quit Twitter last night... and why Elon's not caring about the FTC doesn't much matter if the FTC cares about him... (which it likely does) https://www.techdirt.com/2022/11/10/does-twitter-have-any-employees-left-who-remember-that-the-company-is-under-a-strict-consent-decree-with-the-ftc/
Does Twitter Have Any Employees Left Who Remember That The Company Is Under A Strict Consent Decree With The FTC?

Yesterday I tweeted out a question about whether or not there was anyone left at Twitter who remembered that the company was under a pretty strict FTC consent decree: Apparently the answer was yes,…

This seems like a pretty impactful directive: France passed legislation demanding that new _and existing_ car parks of considerable size must install solar panels. This could generate power equal to 11 nuclear reactors.

I wonder how the costs and speed of realisation compare, against building 11 nuclear reactors. I'm guessing that solar is cheaper and faster to build too, but I'm unsure.

France to require all large parking lots to be covered by solar panels

France's Senate just approved legislation requiring all parking lots, current and future, to be covered in solar panels.
