RT @ctrlcreep: The most useful IT skill is being able to identify which cables hunt with venom, and which cables strangle you to death

The most useful IT skill is being able to identify which cables hunt with venom, and which cables strangle you to death

@spoonfreude This is fine. No one would ever downvote an RT of me

Retweeting this https://t.co/dPm3LOKFSu

While that one cures, I added the trench run and got capacitive touch working in the studs. https://t.co/dxzEw2uDI9

Putting together another brick. These battery contacts are the hardest part of the build. https://t.co/m9STvuy634

I keep proposing web8 but my scrum master says I have to break it down into smaller pieces :( https://t.co/NdWWt2L7Ia

Twitter would be so much better if there was less tweeting on it

If we can’t downvote tweets, can we at least downvote retweets? Otherwise good accounts LOVE to RT vapid gotchas. Even if we cannot downvote the original tweet, we should be able to downvote the fact that it was RT’d

this will likely be our most important contribution to the internet. proud of the team. #web5 (RIP web3 VCs 🤫) https://t.co/vYlVqDyGE3 https://t.co/eP2cAoaRTH

I have to set the poll length to extremely short to disguise the fact that no one would vote in it, proving my antisocial bonafides

How antisocial would it be to book all conference rooms around the area I want to sit in at work so that no one has loud meetings in them

Have u ever seen anything so pure 😭 https://t.co/Rc6mGrdV8V https://t.co/4FNk5StF3M

@halvarflake Sometimes I like to fill a third directory with my own scripts but then call it “contrib” to position it as far away from me as possible.

Every sufficiently large project has a "tools" and "utils" folder, and it is unclear what the distinction is.

Wow. Someone made a whole website about how I'm right about this. https://t.co/O1edWUwwwN https://t.co/lbxubVZ9FZ

I haven't shared the schematic because it contains an error; you need to rework the boards to route a spare gpio to the screen. This involves drilling a 0.3mm hole through one of the pads, making a break in the ground plane, and soldering a little piece of wire through. https://t.co/hG5MfYq8N4

Lots of people have asked, so: processor is a STM32F030F4P6 (Cortex M0, 16K flash, 4K ram), screen is a QT1306P82 (0.42" OLED).

Micah’s notification advice, continued: - if you have a tablet, I turn off all notifications, full stop - if you have a watch, turn off all notifications except for maybe reminders. Turn off text notifications! I’m serious

Micah’s notification advice, continued: - push alerts set up for like CNN or Citizen or something is literally self harm. Seek help. - ruthlessly prohibit notifications for anything that subjects you to ads or whiny “review your purchase” horseshit. One strike rule.

Phone spam got so bad I finally turned off phone call notifications on my watch altogether. (Whine: the FUCKING frenetic taptaptaptap on my wrist is infuriating. Why the hell is that the only haptic option for phone calls? What about just one or two polite little taps???)

Micah’s notification advice: - silence your phone permanently - turn off all haptic notifications on your phone - you look at it all the time anyway, it’s fine

@Jowjoso I mean Swarm is still there, I am just switching personal stuff to Kubernetes so it’s more applicable to work. That’s the current plan, anyway. It’s possible I could read enough k8s documentation as to be dissuaded from the project altogether 😬

@mrled there's always podman I suppose? it's been on my list to check out

The more I read about Kubernetes, the more I think Docker Swarm was a good idea

@ancient_james This is amazing. I want to build one with my nephew (and probably my brothers and my dad). Do you happen to publish instructions anywhere?

Disclaimer: I speak for myself - only a fool would allow me to speak for them. Are you a fool? Are you saying my employer is?

It is so funny to me when the manager says "you may not filter alert emails into a folder". Problem₁: Outage bc disk full Solution₁: Send email when disk space over 90% Problem₂: Outage bc alerts missed Solution₂: "If I were an engineer I would simply not miss any alerts"

The "my job is an email job" to "all jobs should be email jobs" pipeline

RT @ancient_james: Very happy about this. https://t.co/1FofmKbqJP

Has anyone ever made a movie where part of the title is a year in parenthesis, and the year is not the year it was released, forcing writers to look silly putting the release year after? Like it would be funny to make “John Q Actor in: Bullet Man (2029) (2022)”

I finally have access to this. I still think it’s good, and I still wish they’d expand it. Also, I wish you could downvote any tweet, not just replies. https://t.co/Bm4H8DuopY https://t.co/knAivufCKU

I don’t remember where I read this first, but there is no way to express an eye roll, or a conspicuous leaving of a conversation, when someone is being obnoxious on Twitter. You can either reply (direct, argumentative) or not (they don’t get the feedback that they’re being a cad)

The distilled god offers his bittersweet blessing to those who toast to him. His ever-visible bones, the Rocky Mountains, remind that somewhere beneath us, what was once his divine flesh ages in a barrel cut from the World Tree. Paul Bunyan knows more about this than he lets on.

@spoonfreude oh dang, yeah it looks like walmart is selling a bunch of the models I'm interested in. Thanks!

@mrled eBay > Walmart? I would think the extra $4 and a tiny piece of your soul would be worth spending to get the walmart return policy.
