@BasementDweller3000 Not worth it IMO. With #ShortcutsApp on #macOS you can run shell scripts, which gives access to as many programming languages as you want.
Can the #JavaScript version do the same as #AppleScript? Yes in theory, but the lack of documentation makes it impractical. And there are less and less AppleScript-supporting apps.
Nowadays if I need AppleScript is for some tiny detail and I just ask an LLM for it.

Stockpiling post-hoc rationalizations for the future.

I was inspired to do this by the work "A German Word Family Dictionary" by Howard H. Keller (1978). The words (3000 I believe) are ordered alphabetically by root in that work.
Btw, if you want to get this book, get the print version. The ebook edition’s formatting is horribly fucked up to the point that it's useless. It's mangled OCR slop that was never reviewed by a human.

Many words feature two prefixes. I decided to consider the innermost prefix the "main" prefix, resulting in these sorts of groupings. #german #deutsch #linguistics #language #regex #languageLearning

And here are the most common prefixes and suffixes. #german #deutsch #linguistics #language #regex #languageLearning

Here are some of the most common root words in German by my analysis. I'm using this to inform the ordering of a deck of German flashcards. Among the 5000 most common words, those sharing a root with at least two other words account for about a third of the 5000. I'm structuring my deck so that within broad frequency tiers (1-500, 500-1000, 1000-2000, 2000-3000, etc.), words with shared roots are clustered together. #german #deutsch #linguistics #language #regex #languageLearning

I found an Anki deck someone made out of a popular German frequency dictionary (featuring 5000 words ranked by commonality). I did some regex on it for common prefixes and suffixes to extract root words, and created a hierarchical table so I could see which root words are featured the most among the 5000.

I've been struggling with eczema on my hands for a few years. Showering always aggravates my hands, even with cool water (I guess maybe it's the shampoos and soaps?). I discovered the existence of water tight shower gloves. I've been using them for a few weeks. They've been a godsend, and I highly recommend trying them if you have similar problems with your hands. #eczema #skin #dermatology #health

In the FLDS are the women's dresses color coded? I see some wearing red, others blue or green. Is it like Star Trek uniforms? If Emma is in red she works engineering or security? And if Abigail is in blue she works science or medical?

I went to Market Basket last night. As I was checking out, a torrential rainstorm hit the area. The store had a couple of employees offering to escort customers to their cars with big umbrellas. I've never seen that service provided before. ☔️

Found this four disc X-Files PlayStation game at Boom Boom Games in Billerica, MA. Claims to have original footage of the X-Files main cast, which is probably why it requires four whole discs.

I really wish adding USB extension cords and switches wasn't such a gamble. Even after you double check all the cables and switches involved use the right dataspeed and power, the setup as a whole might not work for whatever reason.
Latest problem: I got a short USB4 extension cord. After installing it, the devices I have plugged into a USB3 hub no longer connect. Oddly though the hub itself registers on my Mac, but nothing plugged into it. #usb #usbc #cables #tech

This was a great exercise for me. I've never done VBA in Word before. I'm probably going to automate a bunch more of the laborous actions I need to do in Word frequently.

In Word I do this a lot with images:
1. Set wrapping to top/bottom
2. Make image equal body width
3. Set image to follow text
4. Set image below text
5. Turn off allow overlap
6. Lock anchorI finally decided to write some vba to do this:
It should work with any number of selected objects.
If you add this to the "Normal" template you can access it in any Word document. I also added it as a button in Word's toolbar. #vba #word #msWord #msOffice #scripting

I like to imagine you open Josh Johnson's closet and see nothing but a dozen identical pairs of the same grey hoodie and blue jeans. #standup #standupComedy #joshJohnson

This is the weirdest cable I own. It's a retractable USB-C 60W cable with Lightning and USB-A adapters attached. I don't know what its data speed; it might be power only.
The max wattage reduces depending on which adapters you have attached.
I have kept it in my bag as backup charger for a few years. I think I've needed to use it maybe twice.

I've spent like 12 hours this week reorganizing my desk cables. I've made a lot of improvements, cleared room, and added some devices: a new 2 to 1 hdmi switch (expanding a 4 to 1 hdmi switch); a USB4 hub; and a USB-C optical drive.
I'm now able to have both my laptops plugged into everything via just one cable for each. I just toggle a couple of switches to alternate.
I have a few things left to do, but I can't wait to show it off. 🤓

This usb4/thunderbolt hub comes with a massive power brick. Wasn't expecting this. #usb #thunderbolt #tech #usb4
