  1. Blog post by someone: "Here, I've build a new tool"

    Me, thinking: Oh, that must've been easy to build.

    Me, having the blog post opened: *looks at that barely visible scrollbar in my browser*

    Me: Oh...😳

  2. @jgodfrey like 8 mos ago I had a humming-only disposal & figured I needed to replace it. So I buy a new one & get down to opening it up & one of the first things in box is a big old allen wrench, which reminded me that the old one came w/one of those also. So I find the old one & stick it in the hexagonal opening at the bottom center of my broken unit, and turn. Boom--disposal un-stuck, the cat food can lid that had gotten itself wedged in the mechanism now loose.

  3. I love that my job requires me to be humble at all times, for example, just today I came across the following sentence and I'm not afraid to say I understood very little to nothing!

    > Attestations bind some subject (a named artifact along with its digest) to a SLSA build provenance predicate using the in-toto format.

  4. On Mastodon, people are so sophisticated, and so scrupulous when crafting their posts that, when humour is (apparently) involved, I miss the joke more often than back on Twitter. #Humbling

  5. A couple of nights ago just prior to sunset, nature treated #Melburnians to a show of #cloud formation that stretched over #PortPhillipBay!

    These shots were taken along the #Esplinade #StKilda #melbourne.

    The bay was also illuminated as the setting sun hit the water, to the west.

    The clouds appeared to be a shimmering mix of silvers, greys and white.

    Pic 4 shows a palm with what appears a radiating aura about it… a cool cloud formation 🤍🤍

    #nature never ceases to amaze.

  10. Did anyone else have a similar experience where they believed they were exceptionally skilled at a video game, only to later realize that their abilities were average?

    For me, it was Tetris. I used to defeat all of my friends so effortlessly that I genuinely believed I was one of the top players in the world. However, the internet and YouTube eventually humbled me...

  11. Wenn ich zu einem Thema, bei dem ich mich WIRKLICH auskenne, Feedback bekomme, bei dem ich mir denk "mensch, du siehst da nur das obere 1/3 des Eisbergs", frag ich mich immer, ob es SMEs in den Bereichen, über die ich mich unwissend aufrege, auch so geht.
    Vermutlich ja. #humbling #xp

  12. Well, I’m a wee bitty overwhelmed this morning to see all the boosts/reblogs of my Winter Fox. Thank you for the encouragement, it’s most generous of everyone. It’s hard as a newbie at something, to put yourself ‘out there’, especially on a platform like this with so many fantastic artists. This is the first painting I produced back in March 2020. Sending love and positivity to everyone #ArtLife #Painting #Humbling
