@pamelafox i like that there are two people who are mortal enemies at paypal and their feud is likely responsible for this select.

@bryanjclark interesting to think of this, what you’re describing, as a spin on literally anything learned from the design of carplay

possible vague zelda botw spoiler

really intrigued by the idea that there was a discussion and eventual guideline established for zelda designers that set clear rules about when something a “rule of fourths” (spirit orbs, divine beasts, weird landmarks, fairy payments, etc), and when something falls into the “rule of thirds” (boss phases… umm, struggling to come up with a second one here actually)

@taber it’s a low glycemic index if you’re diabetic (or have gestational diabetes short term) and want a curry or something. i don’t think anyone really loves it.

scanning the imdb page of alan ruck's recent work yesterday i was devastated to discover a genre of intentionally?? bad trek movies. i can't tell if this is like karaoke or if it's earnest and just light on craft, but they're really disheartening.

Gil Strang is retiring, and his final lecture is on Monday:

His 18.06 videos are one of the Internet's great treasures. Strongest possible recommend.

@mgiraldo congrats! that’s amazing, we have a monopoly in san diego which means i can buy my power from other people but i still have to pay “transmission fees” to the single vendor which are often greater than what i pay for electric. the costs are, last i checked, the highest in the county including hawaii, totally unreal.

@durumcrustulum is there some stable "just use libsodium for all your password hashing needs" website or is there some better advice these days. why is everything a mix of "just use argon2," "also, avoid scrypt!!," "scrypt is probably fine," "just anything but pbkdf2," and so forth, it's a real mixed bag imo given that auth is treated like a 'solved problem' (maybe because everyone delegates auth to other services like authio etc?) but maybe it's just solved since everyone uses nacl but all the docs haven't caught up?

@lindsey i picked up a used copy on amazon for ten bucks or so, i tried it out on my kid when she was around five too, but it didn't quite land, but now that she's 8 i think we could probably dive into it together productively.

@plragde @lindsey @regehr @rainer sorry to barge in here but i have this 100% real book which i, as an adult, find delightful. i think the target audience is probably more like 10 though, and includes timely topics in cs like mechanical turk.

Edited 1 year ago

gritty reboot of family matters where steve is a teen with a haunted past who falls into flights of fancy, occasionally hallucinating himself as stefan to deal with his ptsd, relitigating his drunk driving hit and run that left a myposian immigrant dead in the cold streets of chicago. in a 3-season long attempt to turn himself in, he develops a crush on a neighbor whose father has been investigating the case but has been unable to connect steve’s catch phrase as both an admission of guilt and attempt to reconcile the past. “Did I do that?” audiences will discover that and more as carl winslow gets closer to discovering the circumstances that led to the murder of balki bartokomous—will he become the next target, or will steve apply pressure to stop an investigation by putting laura’s life in the balance? 3 seasons exclusively on Paramount+.

@matchu yeah i can dig, i think what i really see happening here is masto going in the red hat/wordpress direction, the sort of safe version that appeals to, eg, news orgs or brands, that gets whitelabeled by folks like aws or whatever (assuming bluesky doesn’t Capture that market). it makes me think about what happens if masto takes the vercel/canonical approach and what that ‘means’ long term. i guess i see such a robust community that i’m not concerned what masto does unless they, eg toxically cause og embeds to stop being supported or something that makes it less shareable.
