I am begging Fedi hall monitors to give up on whatever it is they think they're doing and go outside

I am so thoroughly tired of doing my GC's job. I'm the one telling subs what to do, finding problems, scheduling contractors, even signing contracts with the subs and paying their bills because he shows up on site once every 6 weeks. 42 weeks of what could have been a two-month project. I want […]

Between filling in the username, getting my password from the password manager, botching an incomprehensible captcha twice, scrolling through my phone for 45 seconds to find the right MFA account, and then being immediately asked to reset my password, all of which happen on separate pages […]

So a.) milkdrop is somehow still a thing 20 years later, and b.) judging from both preset names and the shader code I've been reading, preset authors do an incredible amount of drugs

One of the cool things about the (messy, overgrown) yard is seeing Cool New Bugs every week. Like this iridescent, furry beetle!

Scrubbed (most of) the rust off the cage, re-oiled, and assembled it. It's been sitting in storage during the endless HVAC renovation and I'm excited to finally put it to use again.

I have been trying to train myself out of this idiom for literally over a decade but I can't seem to stop: gender-neutral "guys". Feels like at least once a week I tell a group--often all women--"thanks guys", and then they have to watch me mutter "y'all y'all y'all y'all NOT guys y'all get it […]

There's a particular emotion around gay events that's like "oof, that sucks" but also "I cannot wait to hear the tea" https://dallasvoice.com/crowne-plaza-cancels-daddyland-events-evicts-participants-from-hotel/

it is 2024 and I am still fighting Google Docs & Gboard on a daily basis as they repeatedly try to capitalize any word following '...', 'e.g.', 'i.e.'', 'etc.,' etc. etc.

@martin Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for your "How to do distributed locking" post. It's the perfect encapsulation of the problems in this space, and I find myself citing it again and again in my classes and consulting work. Really appreciate it.

Ultimately, it's social connections that is why I'm on social media in the first place. If I didn't care about either of those things, I don't think I'd bother with corporate social media. Which is why the whole argument about #Threads and the #Fediverse feels so fraught to me. There are more […]

I really wish you could disable threads in Slack at, like, a channel level. I keep winding up in conversations where people reply to every single message in a new thread and it makes the conversation completely unreadable without constant clicking in and out of modal views.

I don't understand how NYC, our pre-eminent city, has an airport transit situation this complicated. Like I'm taking three separate railways to EWR: two MTA subways, the NJ Transit interurban, and the EWR airport link train, each of which is ticketed!

For a US city, NYC does *so* much cargo by bike. Pretty cool to see.

I do not understand New York City's obsession with doormen. I can open my own doors. I would in fact prefer to open doors for *other* people. This whole system of "a dedicated man stands around all day opening doors for people" feels like an intentional scheme to ablate the spiritual well-being […]
