Should the #dotnet community read this list in an order of priority?

How to tell your OSS is ridiculously popular: people aren't 100% sure they didn't embed it, and tack on the software equivalent of "packaged in a facility where peanuts were also present" to the license list.

This watch contains software, so statistically probably contains at least traces of curl.

As someone who's experienced dating and "cues" from a male perspective and from a female one, I recently had some insights to straight(!) dating:

• Most women tend to behave incredibly friendly towards a man they're interested in and by letting their guard down; also showing interest in the other person, going out of their way in trying to find time together. Generally just being a really decent person to people they like (duh).

• Many men (including me, back then) don't get really understand what big sign of trust this is and also that this may be a cue.

• Most men tend to be rather awkward around a woman they find interesting. Silently observing and not knowing what they should do with themselves. In order to find time together they even sometimes poke fun at the person in question... . Sometimes they get drunk to gather the courage and behave even more shitty. Basically they just behave like idiots.

• Many women either don't understand that those men are just awkward little children or don't care for those man babies (who can blame them).

I've been on the receiving end of both and tbqh, I do like it better the way most women try to approach me. Anyway, that's just my random experience, maybe someone else has had similar observations or different?

Trying out a bunch of distros again, the overriding feeling I'm having is: wow, nobody learned anything from distri did they, why is all of packaging still so slow, why are projects that treat the OS as a single whole-ass atomic block still take like five minutes of crunching to make fetch happen?

NixOS builds being slow were always an annoyance, and I assumed bailing would be a breath of fresh air... But, really not that much :/

We don't like the "SSO tax," where vendors treat a basic security feature like a luxury to charge users for. And yet, we found a whiff of it in our own pricing! So we fixed it: https://tailscale.com/blog/sso-tax-cut/?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=owned-social&utm_campaign=devrel-social

dolanor, 1 month ago to python French

Just spent 30mn on an unknown python script.
Haven't touched python in a long while.

30 mn to experiment/discover that os.environ.get('var_name') for a bool takes 'True', 'true', but still will consider the var as string. And a if my_var that is a string with 'true' in it will pass as bool true.

I don't understand how people can be angry about yaml, and are ok with python.

Can I get those 30mn back?

Refaire BG1, c'est découvrir le tétrazillon de références dans #BG3 qu'on a zappé aux précédentes parties.

Par exemple cette lettre mentionnant le légendaire ceinturon d'hermaphrodisme, considéré comme une légende rurale...

Ha ha ha ouais, Khalid aurait bien des choses à dire à ce sujet !

oliverandrich, 2 months ago to golang

The more I play around with #golang, the more I wish I had a solution to bundle a #django application into a single executable instead of having to deal with containers and stuff. This would be very handy for the small and mid sized webapps I built from time to time and also for some of the apps we built at work. May be I should spent some time to investigate this.

Pourquoi parle-t-elle 30 ans plus tard ?

Parce que tu n'aurais rien écouté, il y a 30 ans
(déjà que)

Parce que il y a 30 ans , tu l'aurais traînée dans la boue, en plus du reste.
(Déjà que)

Parce que les flics n'auraient pris sa plainte qu'avec des pincettes (et un gourdin psy pour la faire taire)
(déjà que)

Parce que il y a 30 ans, tu trouvais tout ce que faisait X merveilleux et que tu n'en aurais pas cru un mot ou si tu l'avais crue, tu aurais applaudi X en l'enviant.
(déjà que)

Parce que il y a 30 ans la société tout entière lui disait qu'elle l'avait bien cherché, que ça l'arrangeait bien, qu'elle le voulait en fait, et que tout était normal. Et elle le croyait.
(déjà que)

Parce qu'il y a trente ans, elle a tout effacé pour survivre. Et qu'une autre survivante lui donne le courage de le faire.

Maintenant.

Alors ta gueule.

Au pays d’internet en 2024, quelqu’un s’est amusé à compter combien de Javascript était chargé sur des sites populaires…

Medium : 3 MB
Airbnb : 7 MB
Pinterest : 10 MB
Patreon : 11 MB
Youtube : 12 MB
Instagram : 16 MB
Gmail : 20 MB
Linkedin : 31 MB (??!)
Slack : 55 MB
PornHub : 1,4 MB…

Pour rappel : le jeu Doom (entier) pesait 2,39 MB, et le programme du premier vol sur la Lune (Apollo 11) 3 MB.

As a conference attendee, I find that many presentations spend considerable time on the introduction, sometimes more than 25%. Also some people don't really show any examples.

For my #baldursgate3 fans, enjoy this short #nautiloid clip from my uh, 4th playthrough. We've been working on collecting reference files for a campaign / enhanced #faerun project; this is one of my favorite cheesed camera angles. #dnd5e

What's your biggest guilty pleasure band? It's gotta be borderline shameful. I have quite a few, but I'll go with Styx to start.. 😂

Had so much fun at FOSDEM in Brussels this weekend. Met these cool Obsidian users there by chance too, including @Petervdb!

FOSDEM is the coolest, most anarchist, alternativest, smartest conference for nerds. I can't wait to be back next year!

The very idea of a "Files app" is high on my list of world-defeating idiocies perpetrated by technology.
