One of the things that really gives away that I’m a millennial is that I still feel like quoting random song lyrics as cryptic status updates 😂

@michelle I sometimes want to do that too! Way too embarrassed to actually do it though 😅

Some people think scalability is the biggest challenge in tech. Some think it’s data privacy.

I think the biggest challenge in tech is the constant internal battle between ideals and a fat pay check.

@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@vanamerongen What about a low pay check and no ideals?

I've had that once at a previous job.

Wie van u is elektrotechnisch onderlegd? De man van Bosch/Siemens legde me uit dat mijn vaatwasser niet kapot is maar op een aparte groep moet. Gek genoeg ging het de afgelopen 9 jaar wel goed. Maar nu knalt de hoofdschakelaar om als de vaatwasser een paar minuten draait.

Wel nieuwe koelkast, maar dat is al maanden geleden.

Workaround: met verlengsnoer op een andere groep in het huis. Dus wat hij adviseert werkt.

Hoe kan het dat dit nu plots een probleem is?

@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@rrustema Wat gebeurt er als je de koelkast (en eventuele andere apparaten) even tijdelijk uit het stopcontact haalt en hem dan aanzet? Knalt de hoofdschakelaar dan niet meer na een paar minuten eruit?

thomastospace,
@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@rrustema Als hij het helemaal alleen op de groep nog steeds niet doet, dan is er iets mis in de vaatwasser en heeft het geen zin om hem op een aparte groep te zetten.

Een korte test die als bevestiging dient voor de analyse van de monteur. 🙂

thomastospace,
@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@rrustema Oke, dan ben ik bang dat de monteur gelijk heeft.

Vreemd dat het al die tijd wel gewerkt heeft. Je zou juist verwachten dat bij een nieuwe koelkast het verbruik omlaag gaat.

thomastospace,
@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@rrustema Dat is een beetje de grens van mijn kennis. Ik heb weleens gehoord door slijtage dat de capaciteit kan afnemen, maar dat heb ik in mijn omgeving nooit direct gehoord.

Dus daarvoor zou ik inderdaad een expert inschakelen. Inderdaad alles uitleggen en advies vragen.

Footer on PHPStan's website just gained a fourth icon 👀

Yes, PHPStan now has a YouTube channel. Not much is on it right now, just a few of my talk recordings linked from other places, but I have plans and I plan to see them through.

Here's the link: https://youtube.com/@phpstan

Like, subscribe and hit the bell button, or whatever the kids say these days.

@sebastian @OndrejMirtes It's by adding them to a playlist and showing that playlist on your profile. Quite useful!

It was a decent week. Focused well on food and swam two times. I'm a little below the goal of losing 1 kg/week, but that's okay. This week I can swim a bit more, and do better on food. 🏊

I have to replace the tool I use to generate static website https://pages.casa
Publii builds a site which does not comply with the #smolweb guidelines.

https://smolweb.org/guidelines.html

certainly Hugo with the smol theme https://themes.gohugo.io/themes/smol/

@adele This is a good reminder for me to check if my last project properly uses the guidelines.

Time to consider finished. What started as a little afternoon project, turned into.... about 3 afternoons.

I've published the code on Github, even though it's literally just an HTML file.

Christmas and birthday presents are now going to be a RaspberryPi with pi-hole pre-installed and simple instructions on how to setup on your router.

Come to think of it, why don’t routers have adblockers pre-installed? You can turn on or off, but have them built in.

@outofcontrol Seems like a great way to become tech support for the whole family 😅

Since I've been losing weight, I'm using weight tracker apps. They're all good at one thing: Show weight, and show it's history. They're not good at showing: How are you doing?

I've kinda figured this out myself: Calculating an average 'kg / week'. Dietitians recommend keeping around 1 kg a week, so I can compare with that.

Seeing a random line go flatter or steeper doesn't tell me anything. A line going from '-1 kg' to '-0.3kg' sounds the alarm properly.

TIL that many desk chair arms are standardized. A $20 replacement saved me from buying my husband a whole new chair (he loves his).

I would never have guessed this. Figured they'd be super proprietary.

Some people's love language is fixing their partner's office equipment. 😆

Black desk chair with nice new arms installed.

@syntaxseed Does this mean alternative accessories might also exist?

I've been thinking of replacing one of the armrests with a little place for my dog to lay down. 😅

Build The Lanes, a YouTube channel about Dutch infrastructure, made a video about the worst intersection in The Netherlands: The Keizer Karelplein. The place where I got my driving lessons.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjPduPmTT58

And no, I've never been in the park in the middle of it. I never dared to pass that road.

@CodexNotFound I've seen people on there quite regularly, so I expect that 'handhaving' is there sometimes as well.

Still. I should visit it at some point. Should be a bucketlist item.

thomastospace,
@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@voidedmain I assume they simply don't fit due to the large amount of exits.

It's about 3 car lanes wide.

If you want to see how it came to be on a map:

You can change time on the left side of the map to show older maps!

Proposal for a conference talk: How to configure and all its tooling extensions (xdebug, phpstan, php-cs-fixer, etc.) to use a docker container consistently.

That could easily fill a tutorial...

@Crell Not sure if there's enough time in a conference talk for that. Maybe it's better as a 4 hour workshop 😭

@lilianjansbeken Hier ook slecht OV, dus helaas nog nodig voor werk en naar ouders gaan. Dus dan maar zuinig rijden 😊

thomastospace,
@thomastospace@phpc.social avatar

@lalage @lilianjansbeken Helaas niet, en die zullen ook weer duurder zijn dan mijn kleine zuinige auto.

Huidige plan is ervoor zorgen dat deze zo lang mogelijk mee gaat, en daarna een elektrische auto kopen die de rest van mijn leven meegaat. 🙂
