Foggy morning view from Taylor’s Hill in RVA

please imagine the theme from Jurassic Park while viewing this photo thanks

Oh hey, happy one-year anniversary to one of my favorite photos I've ever taken

why is mermaid like this

I have read the first three Dungeon Crawler Carl books over the last nine days and I guess I’m going to read the fourth one now

Cool to see @blackbirdjournal.bsky.social on Bluesky; Blackbird was one of the first places where I was building websites with other people (in 2013!)

It is nearly time to see Nine Inch Nails

🤲 Boston TS Club needs your help! We're out of a venue space and are on the lookout for one who can host our monthly meetups. If you work at or know of a company who wants to support the local web development & JavaScript/TypeScript community, please let us know. 💙

I would figure skate to the soundtrack from KOYAANISQATSI

Frustratingly, Prisma's schema-syncing CLI doesn't support libSQL. Boo!

this is the thing for the day

For today, something meta: blog.joewoods.dev/projects/tin...

For today: calendar.city/rva/chat Moving my blog post directly into calendar.city, obviously laying the foundation to put this together for other cities as well. 🙂

TIL that Nairobi basically* hovers at around 25C/75F year-round, completely smashing my expectations for an equatorial city. Melbourne-levels of weather deception

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: I am watching the lists scroll by, turning them into ideas…

The BLARGRFSSH that the faucet does when you turn it on after you've had it dripping for a while makes me jump every time

Just took a quick walk in Church Hill: • Only Broad has been plowed; every other street appears to be a solid sheet of ice • If a sidewalk hasn't been shoveled, it's covered in 2" ice

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: writing a plan for a hardware project I have in mind. It's basically a fidget toy. We'll see if I get around to step one: ordering the test components I'd need.

@calendar.city is now publishing events to the Atmosphere! It's awesome to see the events I'm trying to amplify already published on @smokesignal.events; I hope this helps people find the stuff they're interested in 🙂

@calendar.city inbound!

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: I wrote a LibCal parser for calendar.city so I can add more libraries as sources

TIL that all* browsers keep your browser history in a SQLite database, so you can just query that database

Love when Google's "AI Overview" for a search query about one of their own products is incorrect

I've definitely been phoning in the Tiny Cool Things lately, so today I… • Redid this queue so that it's clearer and prioritized, so I can just pick an idea up, • and, while I was thinking about it, updated my monthly article stat generator to include photo stats

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: I added some tests to the calendar.city codebase, which previously had none!

Today's Tiny "Cool" Thing: got Anki set up again by archiving a lot of old stuff, adding some new cards, and putting it on my daily habits doc

The good news is that the GFS 12z is much less apocalyptic than this morning's 06z

What is this person trying to accomplish by using my email address to spam a bunch of Zendesk forms that don’t validate email addresses

Trying out @kyledoes.dev's songrank.dev and have so far exclaimed in anguish at five separate extremely difficult choices

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: I spent just a handful of minutes setting up the simplest possible "do something on a regular cadence" on AWS that I could think of. (You may be noticing a "set up future Tiny Cool Things" theme emerging here.)

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: the most basic Next.js + HeroUI + Auth.js + MongoDB setup possible, so that I can copy and paste it for future Tiny Cool Things

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: 1. apparently I don't take photos on Tuesdays, but I do take photos at lunchtime 2. oop, looks like something went wrong when I migrated my old photo library to Apple Photos a while ago… I'm missing a year!

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: I grabbed the locations from yesterdays.maprva.org, matched them to locations from my photos, then spent literally hours looking at each one to see if they lined up. This is probably the only one that's interesting to anyone other than me!

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: the location from every photo in my photos library over time

Stumbled upon this while doing research for another project: run telnet mapscii.me

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: migrating my "idea list" into an Obsidian vault, with one page per idea. (This is separate from my Tiny Cool Thing idea list, which I'm thinking I might just merge into here.)

Phillie Phanatic snout (?) should be t-shirt cannon

Mobius Materials is hiring a Logistics Coordinator in Richmond, VA. Come help us keep chips out of landfills! www.mobiusmaterials.com/jobs/logisti...

Vowing to only refer to them as "Urchin Tracking Module parameters" in full from here on out

This is so cool.

Today's Tiny Cool Thing: I have an ATProto feed running on my machine that shows posts that say The Secret Word. Once the secret word has been said, we pick a new secret word and search for that. (Making it so people can subscribe to this feed will almost certainly be tomorrow's Tiny Cool Thing. 🤪)
