@Theorem_Poem Marathi has different words for tomorrow and yesterday.
I've noticed that folks who know hindi are learning marathi mixup these two words.

e.g. they'll say things like (in marathi) : I went there tomorrow, or I'll be going yesterday
(You get the point)

It is funny, but I adore it.

Thanks for the pic.

if you put a webserver up on the internet. anywhere, hosting anything, you will see "the background radiation of the internet", and it looks like this:

That's 5D-educational chess.

@dch my automation approach is to learn the existing process—by doing if possible—talk to folks getting work done, document process, help sand off rough edges, and then *maybe* write code to automate things. Always checking in to see if my changes are helping.

Turned a punch card system into a shared spreadsheet into a Rails app over six months with this approach. (A Rails app they kept using for 10 years after management said they'd stop using it, because mgmt ignored what I was just saying)

Troubleshooting ssh error

Today, I needed to setup ssh on a newly installed Ubuntu machine. Setting up ssh itself was straight forward install openssh-server start it via systemctl enable the port in the firewall But when I tried connecting it from other machine, I got the following error: Received disconnect from 192.168.1.110 port 22:2: Too many authentication failures 1 When I tried to get help, GenAI focused on Too many authentication part of the error, and gave me suggestions to change server to allow more attempts.

Make Bad Art Everyday

The tile of the post comes from Cheat code #3 of this post. I had a good streak writing here for a long time. Then in late April, I went on a week long trip. (Not vacation, it was a volunteering trip. I should have posted about it here. I did write about it in marathi, but shared it with closed group.) Long story short, that broke my streak, and it occurs to that I wrote 1 post in May, none in June, and this is my 2nd post in July.

How to use real android device for flutter development

I recently started learning Flutter. My 10 year old MBP with 8GB RAM is apparently not “enough” based on this documentation It “recommends” 32GB RAM. Lowest number listed is 8GB, but it means I can’t use Android Emulator, which seems like most common way to test the app during the development phase. But I do have a real android device, can I use that instead ? But most documentation talks/assumes emulator.

Love this new sign on the Clyde Walkway, but it definitely falls into the Keep Glasgow Weird category. It's one of a number of signs inspired by Science Fiction movies around the city's Science Centre created by A Sign of Humour.

@thisismyglasgow I love that. Though I would mind the noise of Godzilla after 10 pm a lot.
Good timing. Lucky us!

@thisismyglasgow

And I thought "Godzillas" exists only in Japan.

Und ich dachte, "Godzillas" gibt es nur in Japan.

@thisismyglasgow on reflection, the most subversive thing about this is the idea that there might be more than one godzilla.
@fishidwardrobe @thisismyglasgow
"Godzilla" probably isn't the right word - its all explained by John Scalzi in "The Kaiju Preservation Society"
@thisismyglasgow so you have to get up early or stay up late to see Godzillas, as we know they sleep in on sundays.
@thisismyglasgow That sign can't stop Godzilla, because he can't read.
@thisismyglasgow I've spotted this on the newest Astonishing Glasgow video:
