  1. Went with Mark and his dog Murphy to the dog park

  2. Also for caturday we have Cheeto in his "pay attention to me" pose

  3. Also for caturday we have Aeryn with her favorite blanket.

  4. Give me electrical any day over plumbing

    god I hate plumbing

    I have considered that I would have been a good electrician as a different career but so many of those jobs are in wiring up new datacenters and fuck that

  5. And thanks to a Z-wave remote switch, and Home Assistant, I have dusk-to-dawn automation for these lights, and I can override it with the remote switch

  6. Added a Z-wave relay switch, replacing a photoelectric sensor, so I can turn the super bright lights on my front yard off at bedtime.

    Don't worry I put the boxes back together afterwards

  7. cardinal sin: committed broken code and pushed to the repo

    but it's my repo

    sooo

  8. Technically Ada is correct here, it's definitely safer to *not* do what I'm trying to do

    I just learned to program in languages that said "Hey! Burn the world down! Feel free!"

  9. My brain wants to make this lexer instance OO for encapsulation reasons

    but Ada says "Umm, that's not your type, you ain't taking a pointer to it"

  10. I always loved this song and it's hard now that they're both gone

    George Michael, Aretha Franklin - I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)

  11. I haven't finished season 2 of the CBC show "Saint-Pierre" yet, but it looks like it either ended or was canceled?

    Is it even worth finishing then?

  12. Spencer Fucking Pratt.

    Like, we just don't fucking learn as a civilization.

    I hope he doesn't win.

  13. Worktrees make git harder to use. Do not like.
