  • Off My Chest: I just had a very long talk with my father

  • This is me, so much. Both my parents, my aunts and uncles, my grandparents. After I got my diagnosis, it's like all of a sudden my family's whole history of immigrant trauma snapped into relief.

  • Harris and Trump offer starkly different visions on climate change and energy

  • It's that banality of evil thing

  • Staticrypt: Password protect a static HTML page, decrypted in-browser in JS with no dependency. No server logic needed.

    Jump

  • Served as "flat files" - filesystem, object store, what have you. No server logic generating content, just passing around of strings and binary data. Files are the representation are the source of truth. Counter to a web app, where the content response is ephemeral and the "source of truth" is scattered across a writeable DB and recombinated (potentially) on every request.

    Interesting question though, I (a web dev) just take the term for granted.

  • Chew toys for extreme chewers

    Jump

  • Kongs are basically indestructible from what I've seen. We used to have a pittie with separation anxiety and a kong frozen full of peanut butter was good for hours.

    Himalayan yak cheese/milk chew things - really durable, moreso than some of the bones we get. Our dog really isn't into antlers, but my theory is that she likes the yak chews because they have an intrinsic flavor, and do actually wear down and give eventually. The only downside is that she likes to leave them in main walkways on light flooring, so I'm pretty sure I'm gonna die tripping over one, one day.

    We also used to get chew rolls made from rawhide-alternative in bulk from Costco. They lasted a while, but we stopped getting them once we found the yak stuff, they get real gross.

  • If you're in RoR land, there's always the Faker gem to get you started. Or keep it simple - find lists of names on Wikipedia or something, shuffle and combine.

  • exercise for us?

    Jump

  • Heavy lifting is the only thing that's stuck for the way my brain works. I used a program called 5x5:

    • only 5 different lifts to learn, each full body so there's no fiddly minmaxing
    • more or less timeboxed. 5 sets of 5 reps 3 times with about a minute between each rep and set. To improve, you add more weight, not spend more time
    • consistent, once you get the routine down, and you know roughly how long it'll take, you can just let your body take over, coast on muscle memory and motor neurons, zone back in in an hour when you're done
    • numeric satisfaction as your weights increase in fixed increments.
    • immediate gratification because functional strength is neat and comes on surprisingly fast

    Downside: So hungry, all the time.

    It's been a few years since I've been active. I used to live in an apartment directly above a gym. Now I live in the boonies and need to convert my carport into a garage before I can buy a weight set.

  • Why the Fediverse is not (yet) Billionaire-Proof, or: The 51% Attack for the Fediverse

    Jump

  • I've seen some active instances die due to admin neglect (not paying the bills, for instance), and I've wondered how those communities have fared since, since they'd have to start over elsewhere, and without all the content and history from their origin server. Same goes with user accounts too.

  • no.. just no

    Jump

  • It's like a weaponized grade of whatever they made CSS in JS out of

  • What If: No Social Media Anonymity (Edit)

    Jump

  • Just read a thing about how persistent usernames may work better than actual ID. Of course, I don't have a link, and I'm not finding anything on Google right now, but as someone who uses the same handle across multiple services, which makes my activity traceable, but not necessarily to my real identity, I definitely think there's something to that.

  • Why? Are we not doing enough?

    Jump

  • I exclusively surf "top 6 hours" and I've actually noticed an uptick in niche community content, lately. Different kind of growth, maybe a sort of settling into itself, finally.
