The idea "social media" rotaion is Bear Blog, Mastodon and textlog.

I've never used the other two!

Cut sex scene from Titanic and now watching it with my 10yo daughter. Love that movie.

"Everything worth doing is worth doing badly." Meditate even if you have the time, even if you can only do two minutes. Train even if you're tired and you're not gonna do it well. Start that project even if you're not ready. Don't wait for perfection.

Here I am trying to shine amidst all the darkness that pulls me down.

I noticed today that I'm an idiot. I built a static site generator with NO DATA MODEL. Beginning to fix it now, but my god how embarrassing. Hobbyist less than amateur...wow. Good thing my day job isn't at stake.

Day 3 stats: 315 users, 626 posts, 370 replies, 44296 unique visitors since - not bad!

Woo!

Math class -_-

I was contemplating pwc372, p2 and came up with “- 1+&/-/'(&'(?x)=x)@0 -1” (goal). Conceptually I like it, but maybe it can be simplified further?

hello i am verity

Hello Verity :)

verity my helper friend!!!!!

every society gets the kind of criminals it deserves.

what is that supposed to mean?

Never realized how much slow builds kill morale until I have to do multiple back to back 😔

Nobody is complaining to me because I think they know they will be "voluntold" if they speak up 🤣🤣🤣

buit a keyboard driven calendar webapp right now cause im disappointed with all tho other solutions i could find. no dependencies, super customizable, im kind of obsessed. for the first time in my life im actually keeping my calendar alive.

Something you’re willing to share in any capacity? I’ve felt like calendar apps are one of the most poorly-solved areas.

i actually just shipped it lol: let me know what you think if you set it up! I really like the cursor for navigation.

Guess we're doing Halloween stuff on sale everywhere now 🎃

I've been on a kick lately of trying to visualize the oscillating clock, and ultimately the effectively arbitrarily complex activity of a computer processor, as modern refinements of the line shaft factory of the 19th century. Of compute as being not much more than profoundly refined "work" delivered by the electrical grid into marvelously complex machines. Does that, as a metaphor at least, feel as important to you as it has to me of late? We spend so much time in a world abstracted.

Throwing heavy circles over my head is the most fun i have each day.

hey textlog! first few days of a new online community always feel magical. hope the magic persists here for a long time

hi ! welcome :) it does feel magical, i hope it persists as well. Thank you for the wishes.

someone asked me if I were a bot. ahahahahaa...

I've read about this place a few times on HN but every time I tried to come back I couldn't think of the right search terms

It appears that the exotic Terraform incantations I knew like the back of my hand just a year ago have started to fade. At least I can still work it out.
