Do you like doughnuts or pretzels?

Probably yes. I do. 😋

But did you know that their shapes also matter a great deal in #Math? Specifically, in an area called #topology ?

Ist "Tilly" eigentlich ein richtiger Name oder eine Abkürzung/Spitzname?

PS: Ich weiß, ich könnte gugeln, aber da gibt es nie so spannende Antworten wie von euch.

Focus on sharing ideas and you can change the world. Focus on people and you will always be disappointed because people have flaws. Ideas are stronger than people. Separate ideas from people. #PhilosophyMoment

Mich macht diese Spam-Welle im Moment ziemlich kirre.

Wie geht ihr damit um? Kriegt ihr das überhaupt mit?

Ich blockiere den Nutzer und meist die Instanz gleich mit.

Das mit dem Reporten habe ich aufgegeben. Ich will meinen Admins nicht 20-30 Meldungen am Tag machen.

So, friends. I'm back.

I needed a couple of days of social media detox. I hope, you all behaved well and didn't trash the place.

Day 10

Today's task was to find a closed loop from a starting point in a maze of pipes (easy part - picture below) and then to calculate the surface enclosed by it (hard! - at least for me).

In the end, I decided to fill the border with digital water and let it flow until stopped by the loop. I then counted the dry spots. That worked, but was a bit messy.

Check out https://github.com/Minas-Snippets/AOC23/blob/main/advent10ab.pl if you like.

If I find the time, I'm going to blog about the program tomorrow.

But 20 ⭐

Invite Codes, die persönlich weitergegeben werden sind ein wirklich großartiges Marketingding.
Nicht nur führen sie zur künstlichen Verknappung dessen, wozu eingeladen wird, es führt auch dazu, dass die Eingeladenen sich glücklich schätzen und die, die das Ding zu dem eingeladen wird sich für ein bisschen besonders halten, der Rest fragt sich, was da wohl los ist.
Da kann ein grundsätzlich besseres, kompletteres, freieres Ding wir das Fediverse schonmal verlieren, weil da alle gleich sind.

@ivory Hi there, I’m struggling to integrate Ivory with Pocket in order to use Read later. It just doesn't accept username/password inside the Ivory app. Is this because Pocket is changing to Firefox accounts? On their web site I seem to be redirected to the Firefox account sign-in, even if I’m using the Pocket username.
