And just like that, the next milestone is already here. I'm both tremendously excited and mildly terrified. Both are okay, yeah?

To the point now where I see anyone promoting "AI" anything and my brain just automatically marks them as a scammer

itsthejoker,
@itsthejoker@fosstodon.org avatar

@evanskaufman It's honestly depressing how much of the github trending page is just AI-this and AI-that now. It's all solutions in search of a problem.

Live weather report from Pittsburgh: in case you wanna decide how to pack for PyCon US.

Today is very hot 🥵 27C/80F ☀️

Caveat, I'm the kind of person who starts the AC at 24C 🫠

This is a little hard to write, but sadly, I'll be missing PyCon US this year. Long story short: I hurt my knee. Still on crutches. Surgery likely...

I came close to hopping (literally) on a plane and heading out anyway, but it's probably not the wisest choice.

For those of you heading out, enjoy the conference, meet someone new, volunteer, and have fun!

Maybe I'll catch you at the next one!

@pythonbynight Noooo!!!!! I hope you recover swiftly and we'll miss you!!!!!

Nothing makes me feel older than going through old bookmarks and finding dead link after dead link. 😑

itsthejoker,
@itsthejoker@fosstodon.org avatar

@thegreybeardofthetree I'm actually going through them now to weed out ones that are dead! I don't often revisit them, otherwise I would have found this problem long ago.

I've never heard of walabag — I'll take a look!

I've been using https://gitmoji.dev/ (and integration into PyCharm) for the last few months and honestly I love it!

I'm in the minority of "loving it" at work, but whatever. Still gonna use it where I can.

Does anyone else really struggle getting Docker Desktop on mac to actually function? I have to hunt down the processes and kill it about once a week because it just freezes. Won't restart, won't close, won't respond, nothing.

I hate this shit.

itsthejoker,
@itsthejoker@fosstodon.org avatar

@webology nope, literally just have it installed so that I can use the command line. But then eventually the command line stops working because docker stops responding, and the only way to fix it is to restart docker desktop, and then docker desktop freezes and force kill doesn't work so the hunt begins.

Did you know that @ThePSF is a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) and manage the CVEs for and ?

We just issued our first CVE 🎉 This CVE only affects folks installing a Mercurial repo with an attacker controlled "revision" (time to upgrade, patch, or mitigate if that's you!)

https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-5752

@sethmlarson @ThePSF I didn't know mercurial was still a thing 😨

I don't think anyone really prepared me for the sheer terror of having a popular project that people use. At a certain level, it stops being cool and is just straight up terrifying.

Apple PR:

"watchOS 10 will be available for Apple Watch Series 4 and later on Monday, September 18."

Which means iOS 17 will also launch next Monday.

@viticci goddamn, it's come a long way. The last one I used was iOS 4 🥴

Been trying out Obsidian as a replacement for org-mode. The main reason is to have a better sync/mobile story, but holy crap the Obsidian editor is garbage.

I could get on board with the Vim keybinding support, but things like starting a line with "" correctly turns inserts a bullet, but then keeps the "" as part of the text of the bullet. Inserting a Task seems to put the due date in an invalid location to be parsed correctly. Stuff like this is everywhere.

@deong I ended up going with Joplin over Obsidian if that helps
