    I noticed these for the first time earlier this summer. Incredible insects! They really do give a hummingbird impression.

    Very nice. Learned about `banner`. It'd be nice if zooming the page also zoomed the poster itself.

    I've gotten used to this essential feature too via Semaphore CI, and I just can't stand not being able to SSH into a GitHub Action. Debugging is so slow.

    Not all though, I've been looking at Minimed pump reverse engineering (which would be just reading glucose data, not controlling the pump), and that's not solved yet, at least not …

    Some password managers like 1Password can do the two-factor stuff for you, so you don't have to pull out your phone. On the fully supported pages it'll just autofill your username,…

    The only app I have that I actually like. It's great.

    Those of you who use ROS in production, do y'all use ROS 1 or 2? Do you maintain your own fork? I'm curious how people do this, with the upcoming Noetic deprecation.

    I've been fiddling a lot with getting my CGM glucose data on a smartwatch, in a way that I like, recently. I'm in the middle of a small series of posts on my silly blog here: https…

    I love the font. Maybe particularly because it's kind of big, so you can see the details. It seems to be EB Garamond: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EB_Garamond

    This is very interesting, and I (T1D) would like to learn more. However, the e-mail signup doesn't work for me. ("Oops! Something went wrong while submitting the form.")

    Home: A 13-inch Asus Zenbook from 2014 (UX32LN) now running Ubuntu (MATE) 22.04. It's still good! Work: A recent 13-inch Dell XPS that shipped with Ubuntu 22.04. It's also great, b…

    And like in all things, there is probably a better middle ground. Don't commit forever to a horrible partner, but also don't look for the "perfect person" with whom there will be n…

    Given that you can compare all N against each other, and then select, which this assumes you cannot.

    That's it! I had a feeling I'd seen it before.

    Not at all. I'm looking for something that shows incident frequency over time, without scrolling through a bunch of pages.

    Does anyone have long-term stats for GitHub status incidents over the last few years or so?

    Isn't this only relevant for fixed gear bikes, where you can skid the rear wheel to brake, and you want maximize the number of possible "skid patches", or orientations of the rear …

    I agree, `mktemp` is very useful. I recently worked on a script that would check if you had a repo locally, if so update it, and otherwise clone it for you. `mktemp` made it a lot …

    I dunno, I've submitted four bugs. One solved within a day, one after 20 days, and two still unresolved as far as I know. It could of course be better, I don't think it's quite lik…

    I've used #!/bin/sh python3 -c "from math import *; print($1)" as my calculator for some time now, and it's quite useful. I need to invoke it with quotes though: calc '100/34.2'

    For instance != is just a way to write something that looks similar to ≠. With ligatures, you can actually see the symbol you're representing, and not an approximation. I suppose t…
