I've been reading man pages for a few decades, and never bothered to read the bit at the bottom where it says "press h for help".
And looky loo, `man` has vim-like keybindings, so you can search for stuff, among other things. I'm a doofus.

Did I ever publicly mention I've been (slowly) working on porting my #Asteroidians codebase from #Unity to #Monogame ?

Apparently that started June. 🙄

I spent today working on my replacement Coroutine sys, which has gotten some 👀❓from the Monogame discord.

I have specific needs for Coroutines though, for running game-simulation code over-time with my "deterministic lockstep sync" based #multiplayer architecture.
And it keeps code tidy!

Vol2 of my series for self-taught artists like myself goes out to the shoppers who hope the 24 colours watercolour box will make their art more awesome. Don't try juggling 10 balls before 3 make sense, and look at artists who do awesome stuff with only ballpoint pens or tape.

no. there really isnt such a thing as "#exclusive #skillsets", only denial of access to the materials and #knowledge needed to learn those things.

no. #selftaught and #homeschooled are not "lesser" forms of #education. in fact, they can be, in my experience, faster and even more advanced ways of learning than "waiting your turn" to learn in crowded, inattentive #institutions that are more focused on their own agendas and testing for #compliance with outdated measures and standardized #thinking.

Sewists advice please !

I often need to mark pattern outlines onto dark / black and stretchy fabrics.

Examples: back of crushed velvets, jersey knit, fleece, and lycra blends.

What *reliable marking* method can I use that is NOT tailors stitches.?

Every time I try chalk I end up with a smudgy mess and water / erasable ink markers seem to only come in the colour blue? 🤷🏿‍♀️

Thanks in advance.

This feels like simple stuff but I'm confused and frustrated.

Trading gurus won't tell you this: $200 in books + real work beats any $2,000 course.

📚 The 5-stage process to consistent profitability doesn't require mentorships—just you, Minervini, O'Neil, Livermore, and actual effort.

Most quit after stage 1. Are you different?

Ở tuổi 40, một người từng làm thiết kế nội thất đã tự học lập trình và phát triển thành công 4 ứng dụng. Bắt đầu từ nhu cầu cá nhân như bỏ thuốc lá hay dịch tài liệu, câu chuyện của anh ấy truyền tải thông điệp mạnh mẽ: không bao giờ là quá muộn để học hỏi và thay đổi.

Using mostly #Golang & #Javascript these days but I’m so grateful that #Python was the first language I learned.

Also, I know the #Python 2 to 3 transition was a pain but it definitely taught me about bytes 😅

Me initially: Bytes… what are those 😭

🎉 Oh joy, another "let me tell you about my math elective" saga where Greg discovers stats are cool after 20 YEARS! 🤓 Meanwhile, his self-taught knowledge arrives fashionably late, one drib at a time. 😂

Tech is full of “nontraditional paths.” That’s what makes it strong. Don’t let gatekeepers tell you otherwise.

I should start organizing the backlog for my home lab. First up will be figuring out what hypervisor I want to run; then some permanent infrastructure that won't be containerized such as a git server and pipeline runner; then making a VM template; then actually standing up the prod cluster.

Then comes the "migration" from my current instance to the new k8s cluster. That will be some combination of k8s deploys from YAML files and restoring some files from backup.

I plan to have a way to deploy new VMs on demand, including randomized hostnames and DNS entries, then assemble a whole group of them for k8s. Maybe I can even tinker with Ansible's dynamic groups?! Haven't done that for a while.

🚀 In today's episode of "Captain Obvious Discovers Gravity," we learn that people who teach themselves a skill might actually be good at it. 🤯 Check out Michael's "Interactive Resume" to see how he single-handedly reinvented the wheel... with a PowerPoint presentation. 😜
