It's kinda scary how much those creepy AI generated videos behave like my dreams.

Taking a break from the stress of computer touching with some computer touching. Learning how to use the new version so I can implement some of in it and get some multiplayer in there again.

When the computer don't be computing even though I beeped the boops in what looks like the right order. 😭

you can build a simple, maintainable website that serves zero JS by using nonstandard tooling (like Preact/Astro) on the server.

you cannot do the same by following web standards. that just makes me sad.

Spent a few mins today to fix up some more key bindings. Resizing windows is now easier with just my controller bindings and I can use my select/start keys for copy-paste in my terminal. Also alt+esc instead of ctrl+c for signal interrupt.

Simulating network requests to test a new feature in @distributed

You know how when you follow an account on Mastodon you don't get to see any of the users older posts unless someone else on your instance follows them? Well if it's a distributed press site it'll attempt to "backfill" your instance with all the older posts once your follow request is accepted. 😎

I thought THIS was the "dork web" we were on right now?

The cats are having their 1 AM wrestling match / speed race accross my bed. 🥰

Ottawa pride was fun. Interested to see how the parade is tomorrow. Wish the streets were a bit more accessible tho. Lots of potholes and tricky ledges. 😅

i wish I could browse instagram the way I do Tusky. I just want a chronological feed of people I actually follow, not random algo shit with 50% ads.

Huh.

So, just now I learned that you can convert miles to kilometers with the Fibonacci sequence?

A mile is 1.609 kilometers.

The Golden Ratio, the ratio between Fibonacci numbers as they get large, is 1.618.

So, within about 1%. And large doesn't need to be that large, it's actually pretty accurate from about 8 onwards.

1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 etc etc

5 miles is 8 km.
21 miles is 34 km.
89 miles is 144 km.

etc etc.

Kinda neat IMO.

Physarum wires: Self-growing self-repairing smart wires made from slime mould: arxiv.org/abs/1309.3583 a.k.a. super super gross wires. This is for sure how you end up with the backstory for the Borg.

it survived another round of resizing. How the hell is it taking 200 GB for a single user? The world may never know.
