Wirtschaftsflüchtling und zweibeinige Inselaffe Brexile in Berlin. Gets paid to press all the right Typescript and Swift keys but not necessarily in the right order. 37% caffeine by volume, owned by a Labrador. Wird manchmal auf Deutsch tröten
CatbusInstructive how people writing the most incisive, informative posts usually have bios like "huge idiot", "garbage eating loser", "horny 4 grunt" etc while bios bragging of high educational and professional achievement mostly produce self serving apologia for the cancerous status quo
An extremely rare picture from the Atlassian archives, showing the first Jira click dummy
I’m idly wondering about hacking together a utility that scans your follower/following lists on both Mastodon and Twitter, and then *unfollows* the Twitter accounts that have also popped up on Mastodon.
Over time, there would be less and less reason to bother with the birdsite, and more and more attention placed over here…
Daylight in LondonToday in London the sun rose at 07:18:26, 1 min 42 secs later than yesterday, and will set 8 hours, 53 minutes later at 16:12:06, 1 min 20 secs earlier than yesterday. There will be 4 mins 58 secs less daylight than yesterday
Daylight in BerlinToday in Berlin the sun rose at 07:28:04, 1 min 46 secs later than yesterday, and will set 8 hours, 46 minutes later at 16:14:19, 1 min 25 secs earlier than yesterday. There will be 4 mins 49 secs less daylight than yesterday
Behind the scenes is a Next.js-based microservice running on Vercel, that pulls the sunrise data from a Norwegian Meteorological Office API, and crunches the data. Then an Easycron job triggers the process at the appropriate time every day, and the fedibot.dev instance does the rest.
Some more #projects :
This family of bots toots information about sunrise, sunset and daylight duration in various locations around the world
Berlin (en): @daylightinberlin
Berlin (de): @sonnenzeitinberlin
London: @daylightinlondon
The English Lake District: @daylightinthelakes
San Francisco: @daylightinsfo
New York: @daylightinnyc
They toot at 8am local time, and show the time of sunrise and sunset; day length, and the change, shorter or longer, on yesterday.
On the whole, these are not fish that are ever going to have a starring role in a Pixar movie.
Something directed by Guillermo del Toro, on the other hand…
