do any of y'all use Datomic? if so, what do you think about it

do you ever think our cats look at us picking stuff up with our hands and think "how the fuck does she DO that???"

thinkin' today about that time as a teenager I got to tour Frank Sinatra's Palm Desert estate, Villa Maggio, and learned that he had a secret passage built between two of the bedrooms in the guest house so that he could cheat with his friend's wife

now THIS is a beverage

similar to Douglas Adams' bistromathics, the numbers on a website describing a computer's CPU core count behave unlike numbers anywhere else in the universe

doing category theory in the south with the Yallneda Lemma

I can't believe I only learned like a week ago that almost nobody in ancient times actually traveled the whole Silk Road, there were just a bunch of towns along the road that each traded with their neighbors

"But some problems have no rational solution" math book dropping life wisdom today

my heart goes out to the citizens of venezuela, who asked for exactly none of this awful shit

‼️A German hacker known as "Martha Root" dressed as a pink Power Ranger and deleted a white supremacist dating website live onstage This happened during the recent CCC conference.

had to explain to my partner tonight that Grok did something worse than the Mecha-Hitler incident and her first reaction was "BRO, HOW???" afterwards: "you were right that's exponentially worse"

aaaaaaa only two weeks until frieren season 2 starts!!!

fun fact: I published my first open source packages before learning how to use the command line

finished this course today!! these were some great lectures, highly recommend

what if I got a bread maker

I have more of my brother's insane music to share with you all

Can’t help getting misty eyed over the first Hinge married mayor of nyc

happy new year! come read!

They gentrified the tinfoil hat

day one in mamdani’s new york

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

happy new year!!! ringing it in with a hard cider and a rewatch of Bullet Train, which slaps

note to self: do not mix up the acronyms when discussing the WMAP cosmic microwave background data and the WPATH standards of transgender care

I wonder if there's a sixth grade math teacher somewhere who teaches the difference between mean and median using Spiders George

might fuck around and make a Particle of the Day bluesky bot

who can really say if saves being anonymous is a good or bad thing?

y'know what might be neat? an #atproto community lexicon for putting files and filesystems into a PDS plus a FUSE driver (and similar for mac/windows) so that they can look like normal directories on your machine

Orion honey I don't think that's the right favicon

it's really funny to me that vacuum energy is a perfect explanation for what dark energy could be, except for the slightly inconvenient fact that if it were the source of dark energy, it would be like eighty gajillion times too large. very funny prank on us by physics.

it's official: notjack.space is now exclusively atproto-powered

hey @nekomimi.pet why does wisp use a _wisp TXT record for the DID instead of reusing the existing _atproto TXT record that bluesky uses for binding together a domain and an atproto identity?

holy shit this turned out to be way easier than expected I love when composable tools actually compose instead of just betraying you the instant anything needs to deal with authentication

hey @nekomimi.pet, do you plan on making a nixpkg for the wisp CLI? so that installing it in tangled works the same as installing most other stuff

okay wow I know it's alpha software but jeez, the tangled docs and setup instructions have way more dead links than I was expecting

fun fact! you can use GitHub Desktop with Tangled

me whenever there’s Discourse

btw if you want to find new #atproto apps that people you know are using, I highly recommend subscribing to the Record Collector labeler

I think today I'm going to try to de-github my static site Tangled and Wisp, here we go

google: we have invented agi but have hidden it in such an obscure website no one will ever find it anthropic: through our interpretability research, we discovered claude imagines himself wearing a bow tie at all times openai: we added slot machines

anyone know any good books on abstract linear algebra, with general vector spaces and hilbert spaces and such?

should probably make sure this gets seen by the #atproto feed huh also, ATscript would be a great name for this language

potential features: - running the script initiates an oauth login in your browser, pausing the script until login is finished - surface syntax for NSIDs - automatically figure out needed permission sets - blob CRUD - surface syntax for embedded json

come curl up with a book with me

I'm so close to getting sidetracked into making a programming language specifically for writing scripts that manipulate records in an atproto PDS

christmas vacation is such a good time for reading books

STEW ROUND 2 TODAY

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

I should expand my collection of programming conference crop tops

oh brother, another bad post from political influencer beltway brian. i am furious at beltway brian all of the time. i share screencaps of beltway brian's posts with people who have no idea who he is. i hate all of beltway brian's posts and i read all of them every single day, including weekends

made a stew tonight! it's alright. definitely room for improvement. soon I shall try again with some new ideas, wish me luck.
