Duckling Season has started a little early and we have the first batch of Australian Wood Duck ducklings at work.
Five fuzzballs wandering around chomping grass like there was no tomorrow.

@peter less "pivoting to" and more "swiveling on"

wizard zines has its first translation! How Git Works (https://wizardzines.com/zines/git) is now available in Korean, translated by ByteFreaksStudio https://inf.run/XYiAR
I do not know how to read Korean but it's very cool to see :)

At that point you only have 2 good options: write “GOT ME YOU BASTARD" in it & hand it to them, or quit your job, change your name & leave the country

Went out into the garden to try and identify a bird of prey swooping about overhead that I spotted while washing up. It immediately flew off at top speed, so no luck there, but then I found this majestic beast in the tree so all was not lost 😆

@dgar "A computer cannot wreck a hotel room, therefore a computer should not be allowed to make music."
@ozzelot I don't know how to break this to you, but your phone... it's no longer your phone.
a while back it was decided that microcode running on dedicated chips was no way to make phones, and now there's a small subsystem of what you think is your phone which is still just those parts.
Like a vestigal organ, it is retained for now.
the actual device you think of as your phone is now a fully fledged computer, even down to virtualisation layers.
the tiny computers, they yearn for the RAM
