Started explaining the electoral college to my fifth grader today and she is flabbergasted

I may have turned the kid on to Sonic Youth via "My Friend Goo"

Really enjoyed seeing _One Battle After Another_ in the theater. The whole audience laughed at the Christmas Adventurers Club secret knock.

- not yet 50 (I'm like... 49.8)
- no high risk conditions, asthma not enough
- no prescription

I got my booster in September and then got covid in October. Really mild symptoms; I missed one day of work and managed not to give it to my family.

I tried to get the pneumonia vax and was turned away despite having asthma? I had pneumonia last year and it was incredibly bad.

Getting old enough to notice and appreciate UIs that don't make me select my birth year using a drop down

Oh yeah I meant a BMC without any bugs

It should have a BMC

Meanwhile in texas we added a bunch of dumb amendments to the state constitution preventing tax raises on rich people and banning non citizen voting, a thing that is already illegal

Eric Adams addresses New Yorkers “as your former mayor.” Zohran doesn’t take the oath for two months.

Pleasantly surprised by an online corporate training module that let me navigate through it with tab and space keys without reaching for the mouse

I think I managed to give myself sciatica on the right side through slightly asymmetric bicycling habits that compensated for a 30yo injury to my left knee. This is now causing problems in my left arm because of how I sleep. haha.

Whenever the kid hears "let's go blue jays" she sings "ho-mer simp-son"

It's 10:30pm on a Saturday, my family is out of town, and I'm baking while listening to Mos Def and a thunderstorm

approximately seven million people were out in the streets protesting last week. these people need to grow a spine. www.ft.com/content/1377...

(I now see you captured the rationale earlier in the thread and I just restated it. Sorry, my brain is addled with COVID and decongestants.)

I think the idea was that a single copyright holder is better able to enforce the license.

But for whatever it's worth, GCC and glibc no longer require it.

I think it's pretty clear we're talking about the practice of copyright assignment as a condition of contribution.

Contributor agreement form | Contributors | Canonical Canonical Contribution Agreement for work to be included in selected open source software projects.

contributors retain copyright but grant Canonical permission to relicense

yes, the Google CLA in this context seems to function more like the kernel's DCO as opposed to (say) Canonical's CLA for its copyleft projects.

Try it! It's so good.

Attempting to use "git add -i" after years of relying on Magit and I'm in disbelief that anyone works this way.

I guess this is why my parents were nervous about driving into Austin from the burbs yesterday.

Helix is famously low-config for many uses, but it needed coaxing (a custom local language definition derived from its source code) to work with a certain well-known C codebase that uses hard tabs with width 8.

I was starting to learn how to use the Helix editor and then someone wiped the system I was using and I lost my config

swap the legal ages for driving and voting IMO

[sees Lotus Notes mentioned on the TL]

[brain instantly recalls "D03NM691", the name of my Notes home server at IBM ~2011]
