🏀 Welp, I don't care for Michigan winning, but at least we didn't have to see Dan Hurley didn't win.
I wrote a app that overwhelming picked this combo when I was simulating 10s of 1000s of games and yet I still picked againgst it. Knowing what I know today, I'd probably still not pick them because it's Michigan and UConn, but that's how things went down this year.
I stumbled on Crosspoint Reader firmware and it's much nicer and it only took a few minutes to flash it and upload books to it.
I haven't found a real sync yet, but I suspect I poke around and figure something out.
After whatever this week was, the universe and UPS delivered my Xteink X4 by the time I got home tonight.
It's super tiny and the firmware is really bad, but I updated it and it feels way more usable now.
I'm definitely going to find an alternative firmware to see if there's a better way to sync files to it. I thought maybe it'd mount as a drive but nope. I had to direct connect to it like a hot spot just to upload one file at a time. Going to fix that next.

Sorry everyone. I didn't realize the email hadn't gone out. My test email was in my inbox.

Welp edition 331 of Django News Newsletter is out. Hard to believe @webology and I have been doing this for over 7 years now, every single week.
We're at 4,300ish subscribers: large enough to reach the people who influence Django, small enough to be a drop in the ocean of developers actually using Django.
It's a somewhat odd place to be.
Don't know how this works, but it says I need community support for my feature request in Django. Internet, do your thing?

I can't take the complaints about MacOS Tahoe serious, but I'm the first to say you are right about Apple'e assanine camera notch that's in their latops and phones and it sucks.
I'm happy to see Tailscale calling them out becuasse it's where my menu bar icons go to die. I even use an app to try work aound it.
Look this isn’t at all a defense of slop code, but it has me thinking — how much does code quality matter, and why?
It’s maintenance, right? We care about readability because we know we’ll have to make changes, fix bugs, etc.
But so … imagine a codebase that’s magically bug-free and feature-complete. (I’m aware this is a strawman - that’s the point, it’s a thought experiment.) Does it matter if this codebase is well-written? I’m not sure it does! (1/5)
