    As spatial data professionals- indeed as data professionals generally - we have all been in similar situations, either inside or looking in… so VERY relatable!
    (note that the “98 minute documentary…” “about the men - and one woman” he mentions was – so very sadly! – a fiction generated for his routine…)

  13. CW: re: cbt abbreviation [literally]

    @alexmush NXP's datasheet for "PCA9549 Octal bus switch" claims that the closest meaning of "CBT" to the I²C context is "crossbar technology".
    datasheet4u.com/datasheet/NXP-

    Other meanings that I found in a web search for "i2c" "cbt" included a "core body temperature" sensor and "computer-based training". It's not related to cognitive behavioral therapy nor 🐓️⚽️🗜️ if that's what you're thinking.

  19. New article: "The command line (mostly Git) abbreviations I rely on"

    I'm all about saving keystrokes. Common CLI tasks are an easy target. I use abbreviations (CLI text expansion) but many of these will work as aliases too.

    Between the lack of algorithm and my not making money off visits, you can believe me when I say it's worth a click just to see this hero image — "A fat hunchbacked man with two large warts on his nose with hairs growing out, admires his fashionable wig in a hand-mirror; a grinning barber trims his wig in front of a table on which there are various hair-dressing appliances"— unobscured by text.

  23. #MyUnpopularOpinion
    "cishet" should be "cis het" or "cis/het" because it's two words. People concatenate way too many things in English, especially in American English.

    Also a million others: "someday", "hashtag", "cannot", et al.
