One of the fun things about a is how the kids waiting at the next stop get excited to see you arriving and run towards you and the two sets of kids all bounce around excitedly before heading off together. I don't know if this is just excitement at the novelty or if it'll always be like this.

@marcprecipice @KidicalMass Two requisites of any ride: a kid with toy baby carrier on their bike containing their teddy, and an old dude riding a recumbent come to support and show solidarity!

I do love @BBCRadio4 but sometimes they come out with such total dross. Edition of 'The Forum' on the topic if 'minuscule': the host talks to someone who posts essays of just a few sentences on social media, someone who makes tiny artworks. And introduces a doctor who specialises in microcephaly, and says to the first two, 'Ah, but small things can SOMETIMES BE BAD!'

@das_menschy It's true that the name has to be explained to people. But you also need to make it clear that it's accessible to families with young children, as a lot of cycling events aren't.

Well, DrupalCon Barcelona tickets are out and as expected they're quite disappointing pricing-wise:

  • Tickets range from 775€ in early bird - without knowing the program - to onsite, 1330€.

  • Minimum wage in Spain for 2024 is 1134€, to put in perspective how unreasonable the pricing is for locals.

  • Student ticket is 485€ in Europe, it was 50€ for DrupalCon Portland.

I really dislike how DrupalCon has became an elitist #Drupal event.

@pcambra How many fewer sessions have they selected? (And, OUCH at the ticket price!)

joachim,
@joachim@drupal.community avatar

@pcambra 2 days of talks instead of 3 last year, or does the 2 days include the contribution day?

Ok there needs to be a ban on episode titles that are substrings of another, or one letter difference. So no Boom/Boom Town, (R)Evolution of the Daleks, Rose/Rosa.

@pablolarah @dbushell It started to look bad at the HTML/JSON mashup, but templates in the database, WOW.

joachim,
@joachim@drupal.community avatar

@pablolarah @dbushell I will say though that having tried the Gutenberg editor recently, the UX is fantastic. Just a shame about the data storage model...

joachim,
@joachim@drupal.community avatar

@dbushell @pablolarah We've got Drupal making crazy nested structure of entities on one side, and Wordpress dumping everything in flat text fields with magic markup tags... Opposite approaches but both badly flawed.

W3C tech in use on the web "Printing music with CSS Grid"
"CSS Grid allows us to align other symbols inside the notation grid too. Chords and lyrics, dynamics and so on can be lined up with, and span, timed events: "

@w3c It's very nice, but yeah, ANOTHER format for writing music in text. (And also, JSON? REALLY??)

Was curious why only one session was accepted from our entire company, when normally there are at least three or four. However, looking at the program, I see there are six sessions about scheduled for today alone.

@mikemccaffrey Jeez. Looks like they've fallen for the bullshit.

Gah the complexities of pre-teen diplomacy! Just said to 9yo: 'Yes, you can go in your [7yo] sister's room to look for a pritt stick while she's out. If she complains, I will take the blame. You are acting as my proxy because I am busy cooking dinner.'

You can tell when I'm starting work on a new migration because I rebase all the merge requests for fixes and enhancements I consider essential. Such as https://www.drupal.org/project/migrate_tools/issues/2969227.

“Your mileage may vary.”

Nice, sober, realistic advice about using AI for development from Brent Schultz from Third and Grove. Lots of good tips in here.

@ultimike Given how much we all hate debugging crappy code... why are people putting themselves through this?

joachim,
@joachim@drupal.community avatar

@ultimike I don't see how this can get better. It's just probabilistic guesswork. And it's fucking the planet while it's doing it. Using AI is immoral.

The other day I was running tests on one of my contrib modules, and got a deprecation warning for a trait in #Drupal core that had been renamed. And my first thought was, 'Who the hell has been farting around renaming damn test traits, and what the hell for?'
Readers, it was me. I'd filed the issue to rename that test trait.

Nice simple example of replacing jQuery.parents() with a CSS :has from @nod_ (Théodore Biadala):

https://buff.ly/3xCXIR1

This is useful for front-end developers trying to reduce/remove their dependencies on jQuery.

joachim,
@joachim@drupal.community avatar

@ultimike @nod_ Is our JS linting now allowing has() in selectors? Because a few months ago it wasn't letting me use it on https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3028968

@slashdot Put the stupid bullshit generators (i.e. 'AI') over there, and only run them when there's surplus power?

commands I need, part 1: git related: show me all the branches that contain the same issue number in their name as the current branch

joachim,
@joachim@drupal.community avatar

rel = "!perl -e '$branch = qx[git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD]; ($issue) = $branch =~ m[\\b(\\d+)\\b]; print qx[git branch | grep $issue];'"
