You really named your child “Payton™”? Symbol and all?
“Yeah, it’s distinctive”
“And trademarked, I guess. Wait, did you actually trademark your kid?”
“Nah, never got a around to filing”
“All righty then, commissioning a knockoff, just emailed my genebank”
“Hang on, you can’t do that!”
“Assuredly I can!”
When @zeerak first shared this I thought that it was surely satire, like the fake RocketAI startup party at NeurIPS 2016. I'm still not sure but I recognize some of the names listed as organizers. This can't be real right?

Slowakei gibt Widerstand gegen Russland-Sanktionen auf

Okay fellow techies... I want an open source thing, a Web app, for viewing the status of lots of systems, and also sending a config change command to systems.
Currently I use salt from the command line but I want less technical less cli comfy members of my team to be able to see what version is installed where, what services are running, and run some basic pre figured commands.
Gotta be an existing orchestration like thing for this....

not to be pollyannaish but so far when trump issues executive orders to "investigate remaining hurdles" in other domains it hasn't amounted to all that much

I want to write in a paper that permacomputing enthusiasts dream of cybernetic meadows. I know is this is just crossing the streams for the sake of literary allusion, but is there anything that cites Brautigan as inspo?
@neauoire@merveilles.town may know more about Brautigan in #permacomputing thought. The surface imagery is very compatible, but ultimately I don't imagine that strain of cybernetic utopianism is particularly related to the ideology.
Maybe check out All Watched over by Machines of Silent Grace? [Bishop 2011] (doi.org/10.1007/s13347-011-004…) if you're looking for direct reference: a contemporary retrospective on the poem and mass surveillance.
I'd be curious to know how the writing shapes up, please share how it goes!

Rest in Peace baby.
Took him to vets only for them to operate and say it wouldn’t be fair to resuscitate him, forced to say goodbye to his body after the procedure, I can’t help but wish I held him tighter and longer before going in.
I didn’t know that was goodbye, I’m so sorry, you didn’t deserve that at all. I hope we are reunited soon, I love you so much.
Speaking of future of some things...
Me: "ok, when are we going to launch this major new feature my team finished some three weeks ago?"
Marketing/Sales/PM: "we are sorry, but we aren't ready; we don't have the marketing materials, sales plans, help center documentation - we thought you'd be done with it on November..."
Me: "What???"
Them: "Yes, sorry. We can't launch before end of September."
Me: "You do know that by then, we'll have the other really huge new product ready, don't you?"
Them: "Yes..."
Me: "... and you will be ready to launch that one end of September, too?"
Them: " 🦗 🦗 🦗 "
😱😂😂

Fun thing is that our dev-pipeline is slowly drying up.
I guess I'll have a few months to just experiment with new technologies, learn new stuff and just have fun generally with my team until the next big product enhancement spec arrives ... in January 2026.
"But don't you have any bugs to fix Imdat Celeste" you may ask.
Yes, we do:
- 4 MUST-HAVE with Priority "Normal"
- 3 SHOULD-HAVE with Priority "Low"
- 5 NICE-to-HAVE with Priority "Low"
Of which two of the 4 MUST-HAVE are in "To be Tested", one is "In Progress", and one is "To Do"
The SHOULD-HAVE and NICE-to-HAVE are such minor and boring bugs that even the PM asked me whether we should ever fix them 😂😂
Yes, these are all the bugs we have left.
There are some minor refactorings we could do, but they aren't even urgent or really necessary.
We might invest some time in code beautification though 😍
How did you guess that I am so proud of my team? I don't see any indication of it anywhere, do you?
🤭
Joking aside, I have now two groups of people in my team: very young and less experienced ones (20-30 years old), and older and experienced ones (45+), and it is a delight to have such a combination and seeing them work together, the younger ones learning from the experiences of the older ones and thus growing really fast, and the older ones learning from the wonderful new and fresh ideas of the younger ones - just a delight to watch them (and sometimes guide them a bit) - such beauty, such awesomeness, such 🥹🥹
❤️
@doppelgrau Even my boss is confused by the speed in the dev team and the lack thereof in marketing and sales.
Mind you, we are good, there is, apart from the merge-pipeline, no problems with delaying this but it is just so funny 😂
If you are enabling an AI feature scanning all your emails, consider this will also scan the emails people have sent you. This information could include personal or otherwise legally protected information.
If this data leaks later (as it regularly happens with these systems), this could mean severe legal consequences for you down the road.
YOU are responsible for protecting the data of others under your custody.
This includes the messages and emails others send to you.
If a messy pile of cables is a Kabelsalat, does that mean a messy pile of playing cards is a Blattsalat?
German here. I would rather call it a Kartensalat, because I feel like "Blatt" refers more to the cards your holding and their worth, and less to playing cards as such.
I'd use "Blatt" somewhat similar to "hand" in English. "Er hat ein gutes Blatt." – "He's got a good hand."

I need compressive clothes to reduce chronic pain and avoid subluxations and luxations.
I need some for my knees, wrists, elbows and ankles. In this order of priority, but all are essential as I have huge joints and bones issues, due to my chronic illnesses and some injuries.
Please don't feel pressured to donate, don't if you're struggling yourself.
If you're willing to help and can afford it, that'd be lovely.
A boost would help a lot too!
Thanks 🫂

As for the regular clothes, I gotta get at least two pants, so one's wearable when the other one is being washed or drying. Underwear as well.
I'm dealing with anorexia at the moment, and everything is at least three sizes too big now.
We have huge fees this summer, we've paid what we could to the power company but can't do better.
Please consider helping us out if you can + want to. Thanks if you do, or if you boost the main post!

Thank you so much for any help, no matter how small! Boosting the main post helps a lot as well.
Please also help black and indigenous people in need if you're able. Sharing is caring.
Thanks for reading me!
