  3. I continue to be amazed by the quality feedback I get from my custom GPT:

    Spanish Coach: Analyzer and Alternatives Generator

    chatgpt.com/g/g-WNDowewbg-span

    I have reached an intermediate level of Spanish, but I have a LONG way to go before I feel fluent. When I write emails or WhatsApp messages in Spanish, I write a draft in Spanish, drop it into my GPT, and get feedback — in Spanish — on how I did, what can be improved, and some areas where students often get tripped up. Helpful!

  4. I made a handy custom GPT for intermediate Spanish learners.

    chat.openai.com/g/g-WNDowewbg-

    Chat a phrase or sentence to the bot, and it will respond with analysis of correctness along with some alternative ways of saying the same thing. It also offers pointers on constructions that students often find challenging.

    So it turns out it wasn't llamas that were devouring their dwellings.

  7. The tar command is famously hard to use.

    To create a tarball, remember "Create A File":

    tar -caf my_archive.tar.gz file1.txt file2.png

    To extract a tarball, remember "eXtract A File":

    tar -xaf my_archive.tar.gz

    (This works great on Linux. On macOS and some other systems, the -a flag causes problems during extraction—use -xf instead.)

  8. tonight I am enjoying the last of the Marvel Brew-a-thon I did a few years ago. A coconut chipotle porter I brewed for Dr. Strange on stream with the talented Infunktable.

  9. I found #mistlands in #valheimgame. There goes my free time for the next few weeks 🤣

  10. Rode my bike to #bussewoods to see the #chicago #dragonboat festival yesterday. It was fascinating to see the teams race with their boats! Topped the trip off with a nice meal at a Mediterranean fast food place near Woodfield. #biking #schaumburg

  11. There's a soft place in my heart for slugs.

  12. Pet peeve: online banks/investment services/credit card companies that name downloaded statements "statement.pdf". Is it that hard to append a date to the file?

  13. Over the holidays, I watched more TV than usual due to my recent ski injury. One of the new shows that I found was "Life Below Zero", which follows the day to day challenges that a handful of native Alaskans encounter. As a big fan of the Alone series, I liked watching this show to see what it would take to permanently make a home in a challenging environment like Alaska. Most of the seasons are available on #disneyplus

  14. Had my first #raisingcanes experience today. I found the chicken fingers to be cooked well and of high quality, but very bland. The canes sauce seemed like a mix of ranch and ketchup, and made the fingers taste good. Bonus, the sauce is great with raw green peppers!

  15. Great to see local #Chicago reporter Mina Bloom writing a story about the beloved "sausage lady" of #LoganSquare, who has grilled on the sidewalk for the latenight Milwaukee Ave crowd for many years. I've eaten more Polish sausages from her grill than I care to acknowledge, and am happy to be able to help her out in a time of need via GoFundMe.

  16. Spent the weekend in #ManchesterUK and did a bit of sightseeing. Overall I was impressed with how vibrant the downtown area was, and I found it quite similar to #Chicago with the architecture, river front and restaurant/bar scene. #travel #uk

  17. Went to see a showing of #hailtothethief #hamlet in #ManchesterUK yesterday. The show did not disappoint! Acting was top notch, ambience was on point, and the music was predictably great. Some of the Shakespearean prose was a bit hard to follow, so I'm planning to read the original Hamlet to catch up on what I missed! #radiohead

  18. Went out into the cold for #breakfast because it is #IcecreamForBreakfast day! (Really, look it up). I got the “Morning Cake”, the teen got “Pancakes on Waffles”. We won a mug for our efforts.

  19. Kitten found a place to sun her tummy for #Catutday

  20. I was planning to record the #Olympics on my #plex DVR, but it looks like the US #otatv broadcast has #atsc30 #drm. Ended up purchasing a month of #youtubetv so I didn't miss any key events.
