Same with the calendar. We might switch to Revised Julian, but we also might get something totally new. I would set up a commission. But having OCTober and DECember not be the 8th and 10th month is BAD.
Likewise, why is one month way shorter then the others? That is bad.
Will the new calender have intercalary days? Probably! And they will be holidays that you get 4x pay if you have to work to ensure only ESSENTIAL workers work that day
Make me dictator and I *promise* to get autistic with it
No more base 60/60/12/24 time. It's getting decimalized. Or possibly base 8 or 16? I'll set up a bunch of mathematicians and psychologists to work on it. BUT NO ASTRONOMERS. I've SEEN what they think reasonably units to use are.
Showing off a skill I wish I hadn't had to learn: I can write with my left hand!
My uncle in law passed away yesterday. I didn't know him very well, but he was always really nice and supportive at Thanksgiving.
Got a G502 but *cannot* remap the buttons on Linux. I've got libratbagd and Piper setup, but they just STOP WORKING if I remap them.
#Linux Help wanted, boosts OK
Very funny: Canadian Thanksgiving is a harvest festival, traditional "we've gathered all the food for winter" stuff.
Yesterday @rockario 's Mom teacher to let her know that they were finishing harvesting the final field last night.
THE TIMING IS CORRECT
Just saw a sports car going BACKWARDS down the highway‽ Looks like they missed their turn and are doing something stupid.
FUCK my city needs to get a safe injection site (I think it had one, but local businesses complained?)
Called 911 for a couple people who'd passed out in front of the grocery store today, they woke up about the time the ambulance got there. Would LOVE for that to be a paid professional who knows what to do and won't overreact's job
Take for example https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlists/list
I can see the parameters I need, but there are no examples so I don't know how to actually *use* any of them.
You would think there would be a million blog posts on this with basic examples (getting a playlist, creating one from a list of videos, etc) but I'm finding nothing but a few StackExchange answers.
Arggggg. Youtube has changed how playlist sorting works; No problem I think, I can use Python, how hard can it be to dowload a playlist, sort it how I want, and then create a new playlist?
I can't even get past getting an API key as the documentation is out of date (now you have to use OAuth for youtube it looks like? But Google's explanation still talks about API keys?)
And THEN all of their documentation assumes you already know what you are doing
Question: Is it possible to game on NetBSD or is it server and programmer only? Can you run steam on it? Is there Wine and Proton? Will modern AMD graphics cards work?
Do I know any organic chemists who could answer three very fast questions about what is normal in a small molecule paper?
(I should add though that "connecting things to projectors" is not one of the things included in this set)
One of the neat things about working at a university is that you're surrounded by people who know a lot about a bunch of things, and they're happy to tell you about them
Can someone explain to me the advantages of the Equal Earth projection over the Winkel tripel projection?
That's previously being my favorite, because it was the National Geographic one and looks cool while still showing where things are on a globe. But I'm open to changing.
Wait.... Is this a bad idea? Isn't good basically just a CDN but not owned by a giant company?
Obviously it would work a lot better for normal HTML/CSS then database stuff, but high l honestly that seems like a good thing to me...
(Inspired by @linear 's issues accessing documentation)
I have a VERY stupid idea to stop LLM scrapers: You send the website as a torrent. You only send it to people willing to seed it.
Then the LLM bots can send the page to one another, and there are so many of them that they'll also help reduce hosting costs.
Most people will not search through your source code repositories pages to find the releases button, they will see source code and assume it's a programmer thing and leave
