What’s up fediverse :)

Just 'cause I didn't find the time to complete AoC 2019 before it ended don't mean I can't keep working at it. It's fun, even if I am a bit late :) I just completed "Sunny with a Chance of Asteroids" - Day 5 - Advent of Code 2019 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2019/day/5

AoC is a lot of fun so far :) I just completed "Secure Container" - Day 4 - Advent of Code 2019 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2019/day/4

Things we didn't do:
- Start the fire
- Shoot the deputy
- Steal the cookies from the cookie jar

Things we did:
- Tried to fight it
- Shot the sheriff
- Put the sham in the shama-lama-ding-dong

Things we will do:
- Survive
- Rock you
- Walk 500 miles
- Walk 500 more

Things we won't do:
- Get fooled again
- Back down
- That

Things we will never do:
- Give you up
- Let you down
- Run around
- Desert you

(Oops:
- I did it again)

Making progress :) I just completed "Crossed Wires" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2019 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2019/day/3

The march towards catching up with AoC '19 continues :) I just completed "1202 Program Alarm" - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2019 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2019/day/2

So I'm like a week late with doing this but... :P I just completed "The Tyranny of the Rocket Equation" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2019 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2019/day/1

I wrote a script that makes it fast and easy to send raw HTTP POST requests. Certainly more comfortable than #curl if you have a lot of headers or some complex JSON data. Doubly so when you are editing the headers and/or the JSON data. Runs on #linux, #freebsd, #macos. Probably runs on other platforms to. You should check it out. The README has all the details you need to know :) https://github.com/ctsrc/lazyboi

@humanetech Glad you liked it and thanks for letting me know :)

@fatboy Also, here is a neat tool for discovering subreddits. https://anvaka.github.io/sayit/?query=freebsd. You put the name of a subreddit at the top and it shows a graph with other subreddits that people who are active there also post in.

I can never find it, but back during all those clown sightings there was an article where a sheriff was telling people not to worry because "he believed it wasn't real clowns, just people in clown outfits" and I think about that all the time

@wilkie Good article. I just wanted to give you a heads up that in the YouTube video you have embedded, you are using the plain http url for the video, so when visitors load your page over https many browsers will refuse to load the embedded YouTube video by default. If you update your article to embed the video with the https url it will work.

once again, if you are interested in an explanation of Doom speedrunning exploits by looking at the actual code (it's open source!) have a look at my article: https://wilkie.how/posts/learning-mistakes-from-doom-masters
Have fun and make mistakes! #AGDQ2019

Just backed Biograf at Kickstarter. It's a group of friends who want to buy the old movie theatre in Karlshamn (built a hundred years ago) and make it into a culture scene for the south of Sweden :D https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/314938404/biograf-an-new-old-place-for-music?ref=user_menu

@imani Would it be based purely on guessing or would there be a pattern to what kind of partners each person has?

We can't wait to release the new Micro UI! #pixelfed #deleteTumblr

@fatboy /r/blender, /r/rust, /r/gamedev, /r/demoscene, /r/pixelart, /r/coolgithubprojects, /r/sneks, /r/animalsbeingderps, /r/AskOuija, /r/bonehurtingjuice, /r/comics, /r/doggos and bunch of others both technical and lighthearted ones, but those are a few of the ones that I like the most currently I think.
