Recently been redesigning my personal webpage, and I'm pretty happy with it.

I spent much too much time on this tiny animation in the dark--mode selector that no one's going to notice lol

question for #ruby folk out there:

using the new `Data.define` classes, the `def something = @something ||= expensive` technique for memoization of derived values no longer works, because the instances are frozen by default.

Does anyone have thoughts on how to do this with `Data`? I could switch to `Struct`, but I like the immutability otherwise.

uh were any of you people who signed up to #threads actually paying attention to the onboarding flow?

@hrefna omg, that's fantastic; thank you so much info, I very much appreciate it 🙏

@hrefna right on, thank you!

@hrefna hey, this is pretty old now, in internet time, but would you be willing to link what you got setup, if it's public? I've been struggling with structuring a new project and am curious what you chose

Twitter: I follow news and political giants, but all I see are bad people and arguments
Bluesky: I follow 10% of my old friends who were able to get out of twitter in time and sometimes it works
Threads: I follow my friends but I can’t see them through the algorithm of businesses
Mastodon: oh look a beekeeper in the Netherlands

@6502B your attention to detail in these things is phenomenal, these are great!

Miniature JVC model HR-3300, the first VHS VCR ever released in 1976. As seen in David’s room in 1983 WarGames. Multipart resin print with actual wood panels! 📼

the Home Depot and the Office Depot are well-established and even venerated in the average American community. but the lack of a Third Space Depot speaks to the destruction of our mutual bonds, the atomization forced upon us by our economic system, and the unfortunate fact that it is difficult to sell an urban park in a big box retailer

@mark COMRADE, let us HONK in HONOR of our FUTURE.

I would absolutely purchase this.

Work in progress on my David's bedroom from 1983 Wargames. 1:12 scale, scratch built using many different techniques and materials 🔍

this is a great, easy to read, cogent, intelligent walkthrough of the current state of LLMs, for educated lay folk - highly recommend:

fascinating and pretty rad Sol LeWitt instructions:

I got to see a gallery of Sol LeWitt... installations, I guess(?) at MassMoCA a bunch of years ago with @Sarahdarahdoo - that museum was fantastic.

@eniko@peoplemaking.games “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.” — Jean-Paul Sartre

For the sake of empathy, I ask you all to take a second to consider things from the perspective of Conservatives:

Inflation is out of control. Housing is unaffordable. The healthcare system is broken. Everyone is drowning in student debt. Ecosystems are collapsing. We're constantly on the brink of war.

So naturally, one would ask, how can we even hope to solve these daunting and complex issues if we do not have detailed information on the genitals of every American citizen?

@asibahi lovely, thank you

@asibahi these are beautiful, what do they say?
