♲ @Dan Olson (FoldableHuman@twitter.com): Few things will gut an essay faster than "oh, there's this thing, but I'm not going to talk about it specifically because it's important"
-
Oooh, ad personalization but suddenly YouTube is sending me nothing but videos about things for kids
How... odd
Definitely unlikely Google would ignore those preferences!
-
♲ @Michael Warren Lucas (mwlauthor@twitter.com): Trying to fix my test lab today, and was reminded of:
#sysadmin rule #27 - Temporary solutions aren't.
sysadmin rule #28 - Permanent solutions aren't.
That's it. I'm off to @semibug_

♲ @wooo 2019 year of the akira wooo (DiamondCalibre@twitter.com): @BootsRiley capitalism is the only system where robots making work easier is a bad thing. Where robots mean layoffs, not vacation time.
-
♲ @Rox 🐧 (theroxyd@twitter.com): a woman that reported an incident at derbycon a few months ago is now recieving harassment in the replies on a tweet from october. (i have been doing searches and revisiting old tweets to update my blocklist.)
...and we wonder why people don't speak up.

@kurtm So... "a malicious server can control itself!"?
-
I did my bibliography by hand, since I am basically the worst
My psychology degree had a thesis in a social science, overseen by the Engineering department, so I basically... had no plan for formatting ;)
-
I did my thesis in LyX, I use it a fair amount - but yeah - my resume was a mess. I still have an indentation on subsections I can't get rid of - but I just sent it out since I live in a town where people I want to hire me will recognize why and figure that blah is a feature, not a bug
-
@pamela This is the truest statement
-
Yeah, I did everything with LyX which is why I DON'T know LaTeX. I was redoing my resume in LyX, which lead to the complaint!
-
@phessler You are making me *NEED* to make a most rings only go to nine, this one goes to one joke.
But I fear it would be impolite
-
The classic argument is that if it's easier to get via piracy, why pay for it?
-
@Gargron My workflow for most of my content is: put into dotfile, cron downloads it to a server, it's added to an mpd playlist I use.
Adding steps to that makes me less likely to give people money.
Optimizing for bad actors isn't always great, since, as you say, bad actors ALREADY automate it.
-
Gah! How the hell do I learn this!
-
Patreon seems designed to make it harder to consume content
Password masked links and zip files emailed using a web based mail client are IMPOSSIBLE to script around it's hard to make it convenient to use
-
@noelle Thank you
-
@kurtm Don't you love sane defaults?
Also <3
-
Who the fuck let me learn only enough latex to realize it's the RIGHT choice, without letting me learn enough to comfortably use it
-
I just saw a job post from 2019 that advertised for "ninja technical skills"
I am glad they decided to write "red flag" into their posting
