Anyone in the PDX area switch from gas furnace to a heat pump? How was the experience?

Lorna suggested, “New Order of Magnitude.”

Modest Trackpad.

Nine nm Nails.

:D just noting that you're not the only one wanting more beeps and boops. Maybe you can make a Vim 9 port.

Who could have predicted that in the year 2025 we’d all hate sparkles?

Not sure if they have anything special for non-profits. But I’m a big fan of 1Password. My previous employer used and we use it for our family.

I feel like we need office pics now.

Blue huckleberries in the palm of my hand in the rain. Further down the boardwalk a very wet small dog.

This what ultimately swayed me in this air fryer direction. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWPh...

Also I don’t think we really have the space of a toaster oven.

The nice thing about the air fryer only air fryers is that you can put the whole bucket thing and grate in the dishwasher. I waffled between that style and a mini convection oven and we ended up getting a 6 quart Instant Pot Vortex Plus. We’ve been pretty happy with it.

Curious if anyone has a more recent design patterns type (or software architecture) book that they’d recommend over the Gang of Four book?

Maybe tailored towards monolithic Rails apps?

Literally no one:

My wife, off for the summer from her middle school teaching job: I kinda wish I had a history paper to write.

Portland friends, what do you think of Single Transferable Vote? I love this explainer, the best I've seen on the subject, just curious how it's working on the ground.

(Awww Gus.)

Agh, no-see-ums!

There's always SE Alaska. Though I can't help you with the mosquitoes, they're worse here.

I wish they had canceled a different, more boring, fantasy epic instead of this one.

I saw the sun for a minute on Friday. Does that count?

Only 2 months? It was raining when you were out of state too!

Star Trek: Legacy A 22 minute Recut of 'Star Trek-The Motion Picture' set to Daft Punk's modern original score for 'Tron: Legacy'. I always thought the two…

I feel like I'm at a LAN party in high school.

I have nostalgia for going to the WSU extension in my hometown where they had a Mac lab and playing Marathon Infinity multiplayer in the LAN. So I’m definitely like somewhat intrigued.

Hmmm maybe we could standardize on 1 star, 4 stars, or 5 stars. Or something. But then I’d feel mean giving a 1 star.

I really struggle with star rating systems. Like I wish apps had a simple like or don’t like system. (iirc Netflix has this and I still don’t use it, so take my comment with a grain of salt.)

My secret is having a wife who drinks coffee so I can just have a sip whenever I want to enjoy the taste, but don’t actually want to feel like garbage due to caffeine intake.
