dicks. Why tell me to protect my main branch, and then make me read and fill out the resulting form, if you're just going to turn around and say "psych! you can't have this unless you pay! Hahahahhaha sucker. Pay up!" ?

To be clear, i'm not opposed to paying for a service. I am opposed to bait-and-switch, and other forms of tricking people into upgrading or feeling they need to.

quitting for the day because i can’t find a way to throw the google cloud wallet API whatever.... interface thing out of a window. Additionally none of my windows are high enough to kill it even if i could find a way. 🤔

@masukomi not everything implements the defenestrate() method or protocol unfortunately.

trying to set up Google Pay integration under my personal account to test google wallet stuff without creating bogus stuff in work account.

Their UI is CONSTANTLY switching me back to work account without asking. I accidentally created a Business Identity under it. Couldn't delete it. 🤦‍♀️ Then i added a user from a service to the work account instead of personal.

I hate this thing SO MUCH

Also, there doesn't seem to be a way to navigate to the "wallet console" you just have to know the url!?

menachemfriedman,

@masukomi you must be very very smart man😅

zorangrbic,

@masukomi Oh yes, glad I'm not the only one concerned. It's infuriating.

🤔 random questions for folks who remember the '90 and know what a "coke spoon" is, and ALSO are familiar with culture:

Were coke spoons just spoon shaped Mimikaki? If so, how the hell were people in the US getting them back then?

Did coke dealers import in bulk and just give them out for free to regulars? Was there some importer wondering wtf was up with all the mimikaki sales?

Was it a status symbol thing amongst coke-heads? "ooh, must be a rich dude. He's got a spoon!"

Any geek know what is smoking here?

It's simultaneously telling me I'm violating a "cop" AND telling me my disabling of warnings about violating that cop are "unnecessary"

@masukomi I'd open a ticket with rubocop; looks like a bug. If it's not a bug, it's at least really confusing.

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

@jamesgecko I started to file a ticket, then it asked for me to run it with the debug flag, and put that in the ticket. So I did. And it stopped complaining. So I ran it without the bug flag, and it is still not complaining.

So, it just magically fixed itself and thus i can no longer reproduce it, and I’d probably just be wasting their time, because they probably couldn’t either.

Grrr

medication update: the meds the insurance company is forcing me to try (if i want any $ by them on meds) has (i believe) common base ingredients with adderall which is to say... it's on backorder too. So yeah. I'm probably going to have to go more months without drugs unless i choose to take on an ongoing $400/mo expense because i won't want to switch back to generic drugs and they won't cover $ drugs until i've tried cheap (which are, as mentioned, unobtainable)

I feel that...

Sometimes, I love that. Sometimes I'm like OMG GET AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER.

As an Programmer, staying on top of work (what to do, & not letting things slip through the cracks), and knowing if I'm doing "enough" has been hard. I've put together a tool to help with that, and I'm thrilled with how much it's been helping. I thought I'd give you a sneak peek.

This is the "dashboard" it's a high level overview of all the things: notes, tasks, open PRs, and a couple graphs of PR related things.

1/?

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

oh, and the complete lack of PR contributions by week by me in the graph (for most weeks) is because i just started the new job so I wasn't there to contribute. ;)

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

A couple details from the dashboard...

clicking a note's title will expand it. Clicking a ticket's title will take you to the ticket in the originating system. Unsure how I feel about these working differently but it feels like the right defaults.

Also showing how you can designate some tasks as one's you're just "observing" At work they create tickets for discussion and You'll get assigned to it (so it shows up) but you're not on the hook for work, and you want to keep an eye on it.

Geeks um... We got problems! rubygems.org is now considered a dangerous site.

Anyone got some contacts at ? Firefox claims the warning is coming from Google Safe Browsing. https://developers.google.com/safe-browsing/v4/advisory

This happens in Firefox AND Chrome.

squarism,

@masukomi It shouldn't impact gem install (but I guess it would impact looking up names)

It's back to normal today.

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

@squarism yup, they removed it from the list of bad sites.

it shouldn't impact gem install and yet I was able to gem install before it became bad, but i wasn’t able to after it became bad, and when it stopped being marked bad I could install again.

I suspect that my ISP (comcast) may have been doing something related to it. Switching my gem source their ip address worked, which implies it wasn't anything on rubygems.org 's server that was the problem.

🤷‍♀️

is there literally only 1 generator written in ?!

https://github.com/noha/foliage

Smalltalk devs have been kicking-ass and taking names in the "creative solutions" department lately coughGlamorous Toolkitcough and yet no-one's made a notable static blog generator to use to talk about their Smalltalk coolness?!

🤯

(i say "notable" because a 2 line README tells me "just a personal project" not something intended for others)

Someone linked to this old video of @avdi 's entitled "7 minutes of Pharo Smalltalk for Rubyists" and i love everything about it.

https://youtu.be/HOuZyOKa91o

If you're a geek, and haven't learned smalltalk yet, you should watch it. It's a fun little "hey check out this tiny bit of coolness"

If you're even remotely tempted by know that that's not even scratching the surface. There is SO MUCH AMAZING stuff in smalltalk, both old & new.

I've just switched our team from some homebrew git hook runner to Evil Martian's Lefthook ( hook runner) https://github.com/evilmartians/lefthook

Also gave them a couple new pre-commit hooks:

  1. runs any ruby unit tests that are committed and finds any that correspond to committed files
  2. looks for "bad words" (think debugger lines like console.log) that you. forgot to delete

They seem interested. I'm 🤞. Lefthook is really nice. I have nits to pick, but it's great for teams sharing hooks.

You know, I like , but one has to seriously consider wtf is going on when +0 being equal to 0 is considered a bug and then, they double down on it and write code to enforce it.

I'm sure there's some logical reason, but still w.t.f. a) positive and negative zero are nonsensical ideas b) no reasonable person wants 0 to not equal 0.

no-one: whatcha doing?
me: oh, you-know, just comparing generic drugs my insurance company is forcing me to choose between instead of the non-generic drug my dr prescribed. they're not the same thing at all, but they're approved for too and much cheaper, and saving the insurance company money is what's really important here.

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

one of the drugs (Concerta) has 6 generic versions of which 1 is actually the same thing. Meanwhile "The other five products are quite inferior, and the FDA recently succeeded in downgrading two of these product’s quality ratings." so you have to check what your pharmacy gives you because they'll probably give you the cheapest one which is unlikely to be the authentic one, because more profit, and making the pharmacy money is really what's important here.

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

oh, and of course, remembering to double check your pharmacists work is something that ADHD people will definitely do.

My adderall literally changed version every time i got a new month's supply.
