The poultry dataset is larger than the rodent dataset

Who cares what the groundhog says, 75% of the chickens laid an egg today. Spring is on the way! 🤞

Well, github.com/gavrielc/nan... seems a lot less scary than the other one that's been floating around that is completely wildly insecure.

Traveled to PHL for Stephanie’s birthday weekend and the @unrivaledwbb.bsky.social takeover night. Absolutely electric games and a wonderful celebration with family.

Nope.

It's that point in the planning cycle when you look around at feature plans for this semester and take a deep sigh before moving on.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping. Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

My favorite part about technology is how it is infinitely vast and I will never be done learning.

Oooh, TIL. Worktrees would absolutely make it easier to "step out" to do something else in a repo when I also am working with an agent on a task.

An AI was (poorly) setup to assign work to people, and I do not have the patience for that kind of malpractice. If an AI is setup to scope work and propose it for further autonomous processing, great.
Do not use AI to add to the burdens of fellow humans.

Federal Action Reporting Form This form is for reporting incidents or effects related to or caused by federal actions in Minnesota, such as business closures, reduced healthcare access, or use of physical force.

The Minnesota Attorney General's Office is asking residents to share information about the actions of federal agents in Minnesota, including those from the Department of Homeland Security, that have affected them or someone close to them.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

How to Protest Safely in the Age of Surveillance Law enforcement has more tools than ever to track your movements and access your communications. Here’s how to protect your privacy if you plan to protest.

The murder of Renee Good in Minnesota showcases how ICE has become a domestic terrorism group within the US. She did not need to die, her life did not need to end, and those cronies will continue their rampage until states intervene.

It's also been an opportunity to revamp my usual feeds and organize them a bit - is there anyone/anything I should make sure I'm following? Tech, news, hobbies, and more.

I've been consuming more via RSS the past 2 years - using newsboat and a rube-goldberg sync between machines. I loved it but now I'm trying Inoreader bc I wanted to read on mobile and have an easier time saving articles. For me RSS = less doom scrolling.

I might be weird but sometimes I relax by standing and listening to the hum/buzz of the yard.

Caught the Breeze v Phantom game last night after putting in flooring for >4 hours and as a Storm fan I am so pumped for more Dom evolution.

Starting the new work year with mild chaos from my desk temporarily being in the living room/kitchen/hallway, but my coworkers are unfazed because the mattress on the floor is super comfy.

Totally agree. I came across a pair of headphones that connected only to Bluetooth and had an app for adjusting the EQ. Everything blocked by login.

Pebble (watch) - Wikipedia

The Pebble OG was my first smart watch and I have a fuzzy warm feeling seeing it survive through the ether and have a revival. I still have the hardware (OG and Time) and the platform is so developer friendly so of course I'm feeling the pull to tinker.

A room with white walls, a desk, chair, and a dirty plywood floor

Started the year by reaching my office in the remodel. I know I’m going to be so glad it was done but right now my brain is cycling through “OMG where is my home base?” and rational thought.

It is wild, isn’t it! My M1 is still going strong. Between the silence and longevity I am so happy with the Mac mini.

Somewhere out there is an alien civilization decoding the cultural and sociological importance of the sequence 6-7 and if they could send me their notes that’d be great.

We got a little snow! A crunchy dusting that will probably will be gone in just a few hours.
