Today I finally received my @paperlesspaper and it is amazing. I've already integrated it into my home assistant, and it's creating a new image every day with a calendar at the bottom and a photo at the top. This will help our family soo soo much.

The online checkout of UGREEN asks me to tip the team of UGREEN?! Really? For the love of everything, please pay your workers a living wage.

Some updates and stats for #Amiko (#Rails fork): ~650 boosts for the “this is happening” post. That’s *huge* numbers for the Fediverse, in my experience. 98 people in the matrix space as of right now. Should break 100 shortly. Code exploration has started, we’re learning out how to do this […]

I loooove the fact that #BTS basically said "fuck you!" to the Grammys for their "Asian" category and won't participate in that racist shit. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyjgyd0225o

I am ashamed of the fact that I’m stuck on #Rails because of the sunk costs of what I’ve already built, as are *so many* other project like Mastodon. We cannot “just move”, the cost is enormous. The Rails core team seem utterly compromised and under his spell. Nobody will speak out. We need a […]

Addressing a queer audience with "Ladies and Gentleman" shows exactly what that chancellor of Germany is thinking about Queer folks. They will use this for their hate. I will continue to fight for all my queer friends. Love wins.

Holy fuck. I am speechless. Hope you all are safe #csd.

There are still people pleading with the Rails Core members to speak up. They all work closely with DHH. For decades. At this point you have to assume that they share his values. That they all also are fascists. That framework is lost. Do try to migrate away from it.

I need a T-shirt that just says “Antifa” but in a bubbly, cheerful font/design. All I can find is punk aesthetics. Nothing wrong with that, but I want to wear something that makes people think a bit more about the person wearing it. Does this exist? Please link them to me. Otherwise, I need to […]

Jens Spahn is behind most bad political decisions in the last decade. No wonder he has a double standard for himself for surrogate pregnancies. What an asshole to not support other queers but just himself.

„Wenn die AfD an die Macht kommt – was dann?“ LEST DIESEN TEXT. Redet mit Euren Familien darüber. Mit Kollegen, mit Bekannten, mit Freunden. Wenn ihr mit vier Leuten redet, ist statistisch eine Person dabei, die AfD wählt und nicht versteht, was die Folgen dieser Wahl sein werden […]

One of the hardest things we do when writing code is naming things. All the beautiful code architecture can do nothing if the naming is bad. Read this book. It is one of the best ways to step up your coding game. It’s the book I re-read the most in my dev life. https://www.namingthings.co/

Naming Things

Naming is one of the most frequently-used, visible, and timeless skills in software engineering, but it’s poorly understood and poorly executed. Write understandable software by learning how to name things well.

Gernans really need to stop shaming people for using an AC or thinking you will be a weak person for owning one. If you have the money, get one. And yes, Germany needs to start building cooling infrastructure for folks who cannot afford one.
