The big concepts I'm going over in tutorial are quantum numbers.
Anyone have related comics, jokes or memes I can add to my powerpoint?
I feel like the metaphors used in the tech industry can be a real turn-off for some:
- 'disruption'
- 'bootcamp'
- 'code warrior'
What ever happened to trying to save the world?
personal opinion: non-decimal bases for general use are a nifty concept, but to avoid confusion you ideally would want to come up with a unique set of digits.
because if i see "10", it's gonna take me a long time to see a number other than ten.

'That's a nice song,' said young Sam.
'It's an old soldiers' song,' Vines said. 'As I recall, they used to sing it after battles,' he said. I've seen old men cry when they sing it,' he added.
'Why? It sounds cheerful.'
They were remembering who they were not singing it with, thought Vimes.

TIL that in the concept art for The White Dragon cover, THE DRAGON HAD EARS. (They have ears in the text.)

@emptyfortress Why not? It is still good
Someone was asking for federated #Streaming options a few days ago?
(I'm afraid I can't find the toot anymore.)
I think #Nextcloud might be worth looking into.
As far as I can tell it supports "screen sharing" (i.e. video streaming, no?), chat, and federation between instances. It also has a Fediverse compatible plugin/client, but probably not for streaming?
I don't know if anonymous usage is possible, though. I'm not at all sure how it all works, they don't seem to have a wiki 😅
Now that I have a breeding pair, getting the standing plushies into the shop should go faster, right?
The ESA managed to have a list of over 2k game writers and video folks (names, addresses, etc) *publicly* hosted on their website ever since E3 2019. And some site called "kiwi farms" which seems like a very bad place judging by the reaction managed to archive it before it was pulled down and the warning was broadcast.
If you attended E3 this year PLEASE consider changing passwords and looking out for weird activity on your accounts.
Be safe, y'all.
A quick and easy way to discover antisemitic instances you are federated with is to go to Administration > Custom Emojis and then search Remote for the shortcode "jew"
Hey snek people
I made up a fictional magical snake.
And Now I need habitat suggestions for it.
Do they vary greatly among non-magical #snake breeds?
@nonphatic It isn't a Jewish thing, not sure about Muslims or other religions that might have arrived at the idea independently
