Snap! Just learned about this new #JavaScript feature called `using` that lets you dispose of resources after you exit a block. Good alternative for needing a `try - finally` expression. Feels like Python in a good way.

@tychi Lately I'm only using this console based reader called TDSR so I've focused on reducing unnecessary output from commands. For graphical stuff I use Orca but I've considered making my own.
@pawpower Wishing you strength and luck. 🫂
I love how my timeline is full of conflicting opinions on a lot of issues. It's fun seeing the similarities within divergence and the divergence within the similar.
My cat just came into my office and started meowing until I followed her to the bedroom where she told me it was time for a nap. Sorry skitty, I gotta merge two highly divergent branches of a codebase. 😿
@tychi Interesting. Have you tested it with screen readers?
@rebane2001 I feel like people (backend devs) really don't appreciate how hard it is to make layouts that work decently across every screen resolution and aspect ratio. 😅
@tychi What's the tldr of your approach? I'm targeting terminal screen readers in particular so I avoid needless rerenders or notifications.

I didn't see this on here yet.
Petition on the house of commons web site to withdras Bill C-22.
spending some time on my local model LLM agent since my approach is way more screen reader friendly than pi.dev 🤓

where's the thing you need? here? there? scroll past the spam, past the notifications! did your filters get it? did they put it in the wrong place? did the person respond on another thread? were you left out of the response? who knows! and the stakes couldnt be higher...!

A reminder that mask blocs operate worldwide and make face masks (respirators) available to all who need them: https://maskbloc.org/
If you're in an area affected by fires and smoke, and need masks but either can't afford them or get them in time, check in with your local mask bloc.

Ever wished you could have multiple independent mouse cursors on your Linux machine? No?
Anyway, turns out Wayland supports that pretty well! Let me tell you what I learned:
Input device on my docked #cyberdeck controlling a terminal ssh'd into my portable deck in the other room that's pumping audio into my bone conducting headset for my terminal screen reader. Pulling in services over the local #p2p net.
@TheQuinbox Good to know, thank you! Maybe I can extend tdsr to do something similar. 🤔 Do you use the command line git diff or something graphical like VS code?
@TheQuinbox Do you have any tips for making git diffs easier to understand? I find even at 80% speed it takes a while to get through them and I end up missing which lines start with a dash or plus. 😅
@vascorsd Yesss.. the roach people that rise up from the wastes in a few million years. 🤪
