I wonder if I'm ever going to mature past the point where the more someone is mean to me, the more desperately I feel like I have to keep trying to become whatever will make them like me.

@toplesstopics 2 tips: 1. Make fun of them. 2. Ignore them. Don't let idiots get to you. They won't ever like you, and you're only draining your energy in areas that don't deserve it.

I hope the life situation is a LOT better now.

Customer: We need this integration urgently. Drop everything, this is important.
Me: <Drops a lot, creates most of the integration> Okay, we're almost ready to test.
Customer: Nah, not important. Leave it for now.

Memory from February 2008.
Diving in one of the cenotes in Mexico.
Look at how amazingly clear the water is!

@Angy1De I recall one of your videos in the cenotes as well. They're magical places, with the clear water.

May22: Is your antagonist more a dragon or a dragon rider?

Zalerion: Dragons don't exist, and don't bother me. I'm stranded on some planet where I can't understand the local people.

Hilda; DRAGONS!!!!

Hillary Jones: Don't you let one of those creatures get near my airship!

Elisabeth: Who cares about dragons when you're about to fight gods?!

Google Gemini now has extensions that can for example use the content of your Gmail inbox, very practical but also very scary from a security/privacy perspective.

@ErikJonker Als ik daar iets van ga merken, zet ik het meteen uit als het kan. Ben gelukkig al een heel eind ontGoogled.

@ErikJonker Daarom haal ik zoveel mogelijk spul naar mijn eigen cloud en persoonlijke mailserver terug. Het wordt echt te gek, vind ik.

@ErikJonker Ben ik beslist met je eens, en het is hoog tijd dat ze daar eens wat vaart achter gaan zetten.
Ik heb zeker de mazzel dat ik dit zelf kan, zodat ik niet op hen hoef te wachten.

Thank you both. I actually got it to work in Python!

paul, to python
@paul@fedi.nlpagan.net avatar

I'm working on removing an important spreadsheet from Google Docs, and maintain that in LibreOffice.
Thing: In G Docs I wrote a few macros to sort the file in various ways, using 4 and 5 fields.
Libre Calc only allows 3 sort fields, and the G-Doc macros don't work in Libre Calc.

I've written a program to convert a CSV to a file with fixed length, and writing a program to do the sorting for me.

Sorting multiple columns in Python is a PITA. In COBOL it's laughably simple.

I wish something like the IBM S/34 would exist for Linux. That would make this even simpler.

paul,
@paul@fedi.nlpagan.net avatar

@wtm I've only looked at the options for Python.

In COBOL it's simply
SORT LIB-WORK
ON ASCENDING KEY S_GENRE, S_SORTNAAM, S_VN, S_TITEL
USING LIB-IN
GIVING LIB-OUT1.

SORT LIB-WORK
ON ASCENDING KEY S_SORTNAAM, S_VN, S_TITEL
USING LIB-IN
GIVING LIB-OUT2.

paul,
@paul@fedi.nlpagan.net avatar

@wtm I want to sort a 23 column list/array in 2 different ways.

paul,
@paul@fedi.nlpagan.net avatar

@tshirtman I load the CSV simply using readlines(). I found that sorted-option, but the loaded CSV misses those 'key' thingies. (I'm still puzzled about that, I'm an old-fashioned programmer, as COBOL may indicate ;-)

"I know you love playing with your computer," she said, leaning on his shoulder, "but I need to tell you the house is on fire."

"Okay…" Pat typed a few more words, then looked at her, shock on his face. "You said what?"

"Good, now I have your attention, I can tell you I'm off for a job interview," Jody said, hugging him.
