Anytime someone uses the idiom “in the trenches”, it makes me wince.

Just find another way to express the idea you want to convey.

I'm looking for #inspiration -- please #help !

Due to a failed project I have about 1.5M cube of concrete in the ground in the middle of a field with m10 threaded bar poking out.

Originally it was a wind turbine

It's on the brow of a hill..

Other considerations were base for huge zipline, wiggly arm man or Santa..

The more crazy #ideas the better please!

Neat! I love learning about the history and evolution of languages, and how they physically moved around the globe. This is cool!

First languages of North America traced back to two very different #language groups from Siberia

@Crazypedia Very cool indeed. I was listening to a CBC Ideas podcast where they were discussing when the the first people came to N America. One of the points made was that there is no way this many languages could have evolved in such a short time. Well worth a listen if you have time.

All "Vegetarian Easy Dinner Ideas" = "pasta and cheese with stuff on it"

All "Low Carb Dinner Ideas" = "chicken breast with stuff on it"

@micheleann@eldritch.cafe avatar

Am I crazy for not wanting to repeat during the week? We've had:

Chicken (with brown rice, creamy mushroom sauce)
Turkey (tacos)
Fish (with egg pasta / roast cabbage)
Chickpea (in a roast veggie soup)
Cheese (pizza)

I guess sausages tonight? Or chili with veggie meat?

Avoiding beef and don't want it to be carb-centric (ie not lasagna). Already have tofu on the schedule for Meatless Monday.

Today's free business idea (#3 in the Taffer series, if you're collecting):

  • non-profit to pay open source maintainers a livable salary and benefits if that's what they want
  • support services to help them; mail filtering, community management, whatever
  • provide collective negotiating with cloud providers for deals on CI/CD/infra/security services/etc.
  • a "real business" so companies/governments/whatever can fund it and get tax documents

Bought a new Domain... Probably not worth it but AI figured what the heck.

Gonna try and build a general news site. Never tried and I don't know what I will do there yet.

But I can at least give it a year and see.

Looking for name ideas for my future Sharkey instance.

I need to get off of this ridiculous Mastodon ride. Technically, I guess I COULD just do something temporary and then when I delete this instance, remake it with Sharkey and migrate again. I'd have "social" back, but that seems like a lot of work.

It's just gonna be me 99% of the time typing it in manually, so I want to keep it short, but also make sense or even funny/witty.

Trying for 6 characters or less.

Any ideas?

The test of a first-rate #intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function.

  • F. Scott Fitzgerald

“The unfortunate reality is that most people struggle to hold two #ideas in their head at the same time, let alone introducing any opposition between those two ideas.”

Found an interesting project because it was added to Ultralisp.org recently.

It keeps lisp definitions in the SQLite database with all their history and allows to go back and forth between versions.

The project is in the early stage though.

Conferences are containers for ideas. Especially when they're places where participants share and co-create ideas, rather than just listen.
