The job I thought I had lined up just evaporated from the labour market. So it looks like I am going to have a lot of time to experience spring of 2025. Remember me if you need a fun informal speaker, commercially or for charity! #unemployed

"Move fast and break things" only works for the people who've never had to clean up after themselves.

I found this slide from today's @nextcloud Hub 10 presentation interesting, and I can totally confirm it. It always comes to mind when I see people marvelling at the progress of a new project, and viewing older projects as slow-moving. At some point, all […] [Original post on social.vivaldi.net]

Ok, jeg er normalt ikke Rasmus Jarlovs største fan, men det her er altså lige ved at få mig til at melde mig ind i fanklubben. Tak.

Skolexempel på när genomsnitt är ett fullständigt meningslöst mätvärde.

Skönt att komma bort från stress och människor i storstan. Bara jag och fjället.

Another thing about #ollama on #Linux specifically: There's an installation script, and a lot of how-tos online. They all install it system-wide, create a new user and so on. But if you just want to run and test as a user, you can. Download " ollama-linux-amd64.tgz" from a github release […]

hilarious: for binaryen's wasm-opt, optimizations are cumulative; -O3 -O3 runs the -O3 optimizations twice. for the wasm in google sheets, they use -O3 -O3 -O3 -O3 -O3 -O3 😂 https://github.com/WebAssembly/binaryen/wiki/GC-Optimization-Guidebook

Playing a bit with #ollama on my desktop. Regular ollama supports CUDA and ROCm but has no Vulkan support; with the Llama 3.2 model I get about 12 tokens per second using my 16 core CPU. So I download a build of a fork of ollama with Vulkan support, and on my 8 year old RX 580 I get ~29 […]

Måndag!

Hey, the kiddo is interested in getting on Mastodon, to follow a few things. Are there kid-friendly instances? Recs?

Some folks find it confusing that there's a survival game called Rust and a programming language called Rust, but there's an easy way to remember. If you get into Rust and there's a bunch of naked people running around killing each other with rocks, that's the programming language.

It's refreshing to report that the Japanese online tax filing site - a government site, in IT-dysfunctional Japan - is well designed, very functional and robust. It is, I think, the best complex form site I've yet to encounter. * You can save your state locally at any point. * You can go […]

När samtiden är dyster kan man alltid tänka på Romarriket, t ex på romersk cement, som vi fram till nu inte förstått varför den är så hållbar. Det här är ofattbart coolt! www.sciencealert.com/we-finally-k...

Weekend cooking: homemade curry-flavour cauliflower pickles. Very forgiving and takes almost no work, just a day of waiting. Apple vinegar, some salt, *way* more sugar than you think, two-three teaspoons of curry powder. A small chili works great (I forgot […] [Original post on fosstodon.org]

We now see the wisdom of Europe having its own satellite positioning system as well as an independent launch capability. #Galileo #Ariane6

Ni som bor i Malmö, här... *harkel* Om ni hör något om ett jobb - bokstavligen vad som helst, men det måste vara _I_ Malmö - kan ni inte ge en heads up? Jag pratar teckenspråk och läser punktskrift och har alla hjälpmedel för kontorsjobb, jag är van att skriva copy och jobba m utbildning, >>

Reminder for those using the iOS Patreon app to support their creators: Apple is now taking a 30% cut for new donations through the app, plus whatever Patreon takes. Consider alternate donation methods (including direct to the Patreon website rather than the Apple mobile app). I’ve found, btw […]

Graaah, I am SO annoyed. LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna to measure gravitational waves, is an ESA led mission with NASA and the international LISA consortium (= scientists) as partners. I am reading a (pop sci) book by an European colleague from my field. From 2022. Who is […]

Vinterkräksjukan i all ära men har ni provat att gå in på LinkedIn ?

I recently drove a car whose whole control and entertainment system was a gigantic iPad-like thing mounted to the dash. It caused me to have a realisation about the #Ui and #UX of touch screens. There is no way to touch a touchscreen without it treating that touch as intentional. What I mean […]

This blog post touches my reality in ways I can relate to. "The reality of long-term software maintenance from the maintainer's perspective" People often ask me what I do all days working full-time on a product that to them seemingly does the same thing now it did already ten years ago (at […]

So here's a bit of a #github conundrum: Say you have an organizational account, and you add people by inviting them to the organization. As an academic institution, it's common for people to already have an account they want to use, so you can't just make new accounts for everybody. How can […]

@[email protected] pointed me to this comic and I feel like it perfectly encapsulates what the AP dev scene is like if you're not actually an implementor. @[email protected] is this what we sound like? :laughing:
