That brief instant when I have to turn off Pi-Hole to see if a website is broken (it's always a digital marketing adjacent site.... :eyeroll: ) because of it makes me feel so icky.

I can't talk to or about anyone named "Mauro" any more without going "SHUT THE FUCK UP MAURO" in my head, why Linus why 😭

Just realised that "Copilot" is an anagram of "Clip Too". Microsoft's marketing team is really missing a trick by not pushing the "AI Clippy" angle!

Today I came up with a new word: Clunktional Adjective. Something that's clunky but otherwise functional. Useful for describing a proof of concept or first (and sometimes final) pass at a solution #rstats #databs

Having a baby is lot like Brexit: - it was a marginal 50-50 decision at best - everything's become more expensive, "but it's not really about money" - every decision involves all sides yelling at each other as "negotiations" - freedom of movement has decisively been ended

Someone at work asked me if "dim_users" is a reference to stupid people and now I can't stop thinking about it #DataBS

I start all my LLM chats with "AI, kya bolti tu?" #hindi

When Kier Starmer says "AI" it's the same as a person in the 1970s saying "computers". Just imagine he's saying "computers" and you'll understand the depth of his understanding of the whole thing.

Surely, SURELY, a basic bit of knowledge for experienced engineers joining an established team with a large codebase would be to NOT disregard Every. Single. Convention. of that codebase 🤔 Surely.

Nothing like the first day of a new year to truly test your code's assumptions. #DataBS

I know it's mostly my fault for allowing queries like this on my estate, but a "scroll to searched term" would be nice as well... #DataBS

Very glad for my 12+ year-old Raspberry Pi that just keeps chugging along blocking gunk from my home network!

It's been many years since I last daily-drove a Windows machine for dev stuff, and I still miss Notepad++ when opening random text formats that are not part of a "project". Zed comes the closest to being that "lightweight, but can do everything" editor replacement, but something's still lacking.

Here's a quick write up I did on the new uv package manager by Astral. I walked through setting up a new project, creating the repo with the GitHub CLI, and then using uv to actually manage dependencies. Plus, how to convert existing projects to uv. #DataBS #DevOps whtwnd.com/chriskornaro...

Tbh it's not that bad having low standards for pop culture quality. It just means there is more stuff that'll make you happy.

This burgeoning trend of growth hacker types sending LinkedIn connection requests just so they can hassle you without the inconvenience of an unsubscribe link is... annoying. Marketers will do literally anything to get around informed consent.

Netflix's 3 Body Problem wants to tackle difficult scientific and moral and philosophical challenges, but also has lines like "We sponsor your ILR", and some guy taking a GWR train from Brighton (ish) to London 🤦‍♂️

Hi, can you help me? I want to develop a model that makes risk predictions. Use logistic regression. Can I use some more modern techniques, like AI? Use a neural network with single non-hidden feed forward layer that outputs to a single dimension using a sigmoid activation function.

I feel like this was the greatest celebrity post of all time because you initially want to make fun of it because we’re all irony poisoned jerks but the sheer scale of human compassion overwhelms it and you end up going yes Vincent I also want to help a pig see the stars for the first time

PySky, what is your favorite automated documentation tool? Investigating to round out the docs of an internal platform I'm working on, and want something a bit more detailed than just a docstring-generated list of methods and inputs. One thing I'd like is class diagrams of derived classes #python
