Business: "We only collect feedback on Facebook ... "
Me: 🤯, bye bye! (Not that they'd know since I'd need to be on Facebook).
🤯 I just started using #Obsidian to edit Markdown files within a development project folder and ... wow, it's such a better editor experience than what's built into most code editors (VS Code).
I wish I'd thought to do this a long time ago. 🤓
I made a few settings changes for (font) appearance and default file locations, but 99% stock. Obsidian creates a .obsidian folder in the root folder, but it's a small price to pay.
I graduated from college many decades ago and on #LinkedIn "People I may know" includes current students at the university.
😀
It's great that in 2026, #healthcare in the USA continues to keep the #FAX industry alive.
Just today, setting up an appointment with a new health system, "fax us your records...."
Mind you - they can transfer the records electronically if the staff were trained properly on their Epic #EHR systems.
Generally, my #Ubiquiti network hardware functions as expected.
Recently wired and wireless cameras have been dropping off the network for short periods of time. Support suggested maybe CPU issues -- I've tracked down the times it happens to when there's a crash-dump in a likely unrelated sub-system (written in Java). So, the crash dump something else triggered then knocks cameras off-line.
Brilliant.
If you were going to buy new solar panels for install in the Northern USA, and you wanted the "best" (or best for the money), what brand would you suggest?
Maybe the perfect outcome of playing the #Boardgame The Architects of Amytis on #ValentinesDay2026 with my wife: we both scored 107 and tied! (The rules say that both players are victorious on a tie.)

I’m having one of those software coding moments where I feel like I refactored more code than existed in the first place. Somehow. It doesn’t even compile yet. 🫩😬🤓
Massive #Accessibility failure by Anker in an email campaign.
The actual email image contents are nothing like the plain (alt) text suggests.
The first image with the charger has this ALT text: "Three women enjoying a shopping day, carrying multiple colorful shopping bags while walking together outdoors."
Further, the email content is 99% images. 🤬 😩
What framework/system would you use if you were creating commercial/professional code and applications for an #Espressif #ESP32? Options seem to include #arduino IDE, ESP-IDF, #PlatformIO, #MicroPython,…and maybe others.
My experience is that several options are easy to start, but it does feel like I’m in less control by third party components being packaged, but maybe that’s a good thing (I’m mostly concerned about needing to make a fix to third party code that isn’t actively maintained).
