The next four years are going to be a constantly escalating and increasingly terrifying game of "What made shit did Trump do today?"

Abolishing the National Commercial Fishing Safety Advisory Committee?! Why would you do that?

If you're going to advertise your silly scam on LinkedIn you should expect silly replies from me. :)

The directive, and therefore the deadline, were defined in 2016. If it gets extended that would be silly.

Here are a couple of more finished projects. My first Oz box sold quick so I made another. And here is my trunk too. The finish is trash so I’m keeping it, but I’m going to make some more of these. #woodworking #woodworkersofbluesky

The European Accessibility Act comes into force for private e-commerce businesses operating in Europe on June 28th, meaning every e-commerce website needs to be WCAG 2.2 compliant in the next six months.

This is Y2K for web devs.

2025 is the sum of all the single digits numbers cubed.

1Β³+2Β³+3Β³+4Β³+5Β³+6Β³+7Β³+8Β³+9Β³ = 2025

That's nice.

2025 is going to be the year I finally learn to draw. I've blocked out 90 minutes a day, so around 500 hours in total. That should be enough to nail the basics.

Planned a design for the next wooden box. I'm going to need approximately 400 of these little triangles, so I made a jig to make them easier to cut. I swear woodworking is about 75% jig-making.

It needs a good sanding, some oil, wax, and hinges, but I'm happy with it.

Assuming recommendations are mostly random, as more people join the probability of them seeing a recommendation for your account drops (e.g. you went from 1 in 100 early on to 1 in 10000 now). That would explain the slow down even if the number of people joining is stable.

One day I hope there's an episode of a cookery competition show where things all go according to plan, and they have time for a relaxed cup of tea at the end.

The background is the happy dolphin meme. It consists of a sparsely cloudy blue sky with a rainbow coming from the horizon to the front. There are many colorful hot air balloons in the sky. The lower half of the background has water body with multiple dolphins jumping out of it in the air. Close to the bottom of the background, underwater there is one dolphin swimming along with lots of small colorful fishes and sea vegetation. The foreground has white text with black borders and small drop shadows. All the text is is upper case. The text is split into two parts, one part at the top of the image and the second at the bottom. First part says β€œthe world if” and second says β€œwe got rid of standups”

ffs we have jira and slack (or walk to people’s desks and talk to them). Don’t wait until standup to learn/share about blockers or where you need help. Post on public channels and comment on tickets to let people know what’s up.
