"Introducing Apple Pencil Pro. It takes the pencil experience to a whole new level." is one of those ridiculous sentences which make me laugh out loud .

@m does it feel like writing on paper? Because that’s what the folks selling the Remarkable 2 and other eInk notetaking tablets claim their pencils and pens do.

@jsr this is the moderate position, in case anyone is “concerned” for the poor billionaires. I think the conclusion is that they should not be allowed to exist.

Doing yard work with kiddo yesterday, he hopped into the wheelbarrow. So, obviously, it becomes a joke and not just a ride.
“Welcome to Wheelbarrow Airlines, where we have a better safety record than Boeing.”

He asks, “Where are we going?”
“I’m glad you asked, but Wheelbarrow Airlines employees are strictly prohibited from discussing the location or itineraries of customers with anyone, including customers.”

“Keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times. Wheelbarrow Airlines is not liable for any injuries by passengers who exit the vehicle while in motion. Note that the captain has put the seatbelt light.”
Him: “But there’s no seat belt!”
“Wheelbarrow Airlines is not legally required to supply seat belts.”

Is Air Tag supposed to be a pun on ear tag?

@MLE_online I wanted to find a picture online of someone wearing one as an earring as a joke, but instead found out Amazon has a whole “Air Tag Jewelry” category for tracing the movements of (supposedly) your kids, and just gave up.

@foone it sounds like a whole new layer of horrible ambience to visiting the hospital. Devices just quietly muttering model numbers and instructions to themselves against a backdrop of cinderblocks painted in muted pastels and scuffed off-white tile.

    @rooster I think the next book that I was that blown away by was Scott Westerfeld's The Risen Empire. A buddy handed it to me on the ship after someone left it in the lounge and was like, "You need to read this." He was absolutely right.

    I'm learning LaTeX, because it's more fun than actually looking for a job.

    @c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

    Just learned that you can split a document into multiple source files, so now my resume has a Makefile and is easily rearranged. And because I'm a software nerd first, I've got Document Viewer open and ran git ls-files | entr make to auto-rebuild any time a tracked part of the document is saved. Who needs WYSIWYG?

    I need to check this out. I have a stupid exercise bike that needs a new, lower seat post (thanks manufacturer for both making the minimum seat height too high for some adults and for having some weirdly shaped seat post that can’t just accept a metal rod). Also all of the inevitable weird computer things I could do!

    Finally listening to Deb Chachra's How Infrastructure Works and it is just wonderful. I wanted to squee when she described Boston's Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge as a "charismatic megastructure". It's just a great book.

    I'm sure this is true for many people, but I'm having the opposite experience, tbh. Coding (mostly) for myself, and taking a lot of care to make it long term maintainable, has been incredibly restorative for me. Keeping a code base tidy is so much more relaxing than constant tip toeing around a bunch of hazardous piles of legacy junk that you're not allowed to fix.

    @jenniferplusplus I'm more like that too. I also really like the idea of solving problems for reasons other than profit motive.
    I don't want to sell my code. I just want to make it and give it freely to anyone it might help.

    @skry alright, I apologize to my elementary school teachers for what I thought were insulting lessons on parsing the text and structure of stories. There are people who just do not get them. The evil, unaccountable mega corporations of cyberpunk and other dystopian science fiction were supposed to be obviously bad. Do not create the Torment Nexus includes political systems not just devices!

    this is going to rustle a few people's jimmies but it is a very earnest, very thoughtful post about the conflicting goals of rust and gamedev

    https://loglog.games/blog/leaving-rust-gamedev/

    it really echos a lot of the problems i've faced with static languages

    c0dec0dec0de,
    @c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

    @tef oh, oh yeah. Rust’s whole ouvre is not that at all. I mean there are cases where some refactors are easy and really safe because of the ownership model and borrow-checker, but exploratory programming is not - broadly-speaking - what I would associate with Rust.
