I used to DJ a lot. House and funk. Desert and warehouse. Some mixes at http://soundcloud.com/eriknelson but I’m not really here for promotion

I showed A New Hope to two children under 10 years old for the first time last weekend - they loved it, because of course they did - and found myself knowing what almost every line of dialog was before it was spoken and stopping myself from talking along

I hope it’s not the same time as Saguaro Man next year, since we’re pretty committed to going back. But neotropolis looks neat!

I wasn't sure how I felt about the couple of people that showed up with drums at first. But they asked us and others nearby "what's the next chant?" and kept them going. It was great. That kind of energy was what we needed.
The guy with a trumpet keeping a rhythm with call and response was icing.

Uh, is 60 volts neutral to ground good? Asking for a friend.

Nope. It was’t just this. Sometimes it faults with the wires connected, sometime it faults while disconnected. I have to assume some of this solid wire vibrated into a fault at some point in the past 23 years

I liked the first season so much I immediately read all the books and while there are significant differences I'm really interested in how the show version will go!

what did you think?

I'm not even sure exactly what the fault -is-, but removing the wack outlet from the equation fixes it, so... close enough to understanding

I'm quite glad that connecting the wires directly resulted in no ground fault and power to the other side of the van, because replacing that wiring would be... an extra special nightmare. Expanding four cutouts to replace four weird-ass outlets with normal boxes is MUCH less work

Not knowing that it was originally a pejorative used by people who were -for- social justice, I of course always said “what’s wrong with being a warrior for that?”

Scallions are high on the list of things I wish I could make myself like because they’re involved in so many things I otherwise do

I've decided the person who came up with this analogy put their finger on the point. -->
They said there are two kinds of humans. The ones who said they went through it & you can, too. And the kind who say they went through it, and they never want anyone else to have to go through that again.

Security at universal studios saying “that’s tobacco, *right*? Definitely *tobacco* in that vape pen?” to my girlfriend is high on that list. No pun intended, but now it’s there…

I’m working on a PCI compliance tool and it’s like.. there aren’t even laws any more, these rules seem extra silly

Newly cleaned keyboard and trackball back in their homes.
I am choosing not to share any closeups of the trackball or half disassembled keyboard before cleaning because... ew.

I also can't think of ways it's gotten less usable. Kibana keeps getting nicer, and while they have added a bunch of ML type things, that's been the case since well before the AI hype machine got going, and I've been completely ignoring them

I would disagree, at least on this front- for a while now you've had to *work* to have an unsecured install. For a long time it was the default, and adding user auth to a cluster was a pain. Combined with "free" that is why it was the biggest source of "we found an insecure online database"

This story tells me that clickhouse must be giving elasticsearch some stiff competition
