Here's a terrifying bit of whimsy.
"Contestants faced off in the Belgian coastal town of De Panne on Sunday at the annual European seagull screeching championship, which brought together more than 70 participants seeking to produce the best imitation of the bird's distinctive shriek."
Now you even got a mention, @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com !! He made an extra stop at Driebergen-Zeist to check the three most important things from your video: J platform, illegally parked bicycles, pancake restaurant :) Hilarious.
Episode 4 in the search for all the highest peaks of the Dutch provinces, by 西久靈 (Xī Jiǔ-líng) from Taiwan who lives in The NL.
Even more of a c*nt than I thought.

@b0rk@social.jvns.ca Figuring out how to best organise the classes hierarchy, for instance? Yeah, I always found that fun work. Just like designing the perfect database scheme.

@Karcsesz@equestria.social @Lunaphied@provably.online @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com @ajinkyapdahale@mstdn.social @danbrotherston@types.pl @BicycleDutch@mastodon.social No, a "personal OV-chipkaart" with photo and backed by a bank account is required. Once you have that, you need to add the (free) NS OV-fiets sub to it.
Don't mind the "Ovpay" mentioned here. That doesn't work yet for OV-fiets: https://www.ov-chipkaart.nl/en/apply-for-personal-ov-chipcard
They do say: "Is your IBAN not from the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg or Germany? Please contact us via chat. We will then help you apply for your OV-chipkaart."

@pinakographos Ha ha, AI is so dumb. Genitalia is plural so you can't say "a" genitalia!!
According to Dutch waste water measurements, Sars-Cov-2 concentrations have never been so low since they started collecting (or publishing?) these numbers in Oct 2020.

@greytheearthling@fe.disroot.org @danluu@mastodon.social Nominally, sure. Every Copilot/chat feature can be disabled in Settings. See a few examples attached. The question is now if that really disables everything.

RE: @vreer@todon.nl
Zo wordt ons een rad voor ogen gedraaid als we er niet zelf bij waren: door een schijnheilige burgemeester, liegende politie en de pers die alles voor zoete koek slikt.
Bedankt voor jullie essentiële bijdrage, @vreer@todon.nl

@panic@social.panic.com Thanks. Yes, I'm perfectly satisfied with T5 (except that "preserve timestamps" is off by default and hidden in advanced server settings…) and since I'm staying on 15.x for the foreseeable future, that's my only option anyway.
Liquid Glass is tiresome but I get that you can't keep 2 parallel UI versions.
I deliberately kept my question short & open but maybe I should have specified because THIS is what I want to know more about: "frameworks and bug fixes not [in macOS15]". Blog time? :)
Replying to
@danluu@mastodon.social Jfc. I haven't experienced this, perhaps because I blocked the Copilot user on GitHub. But I also disabled all AI features in VS Code and that should already have been enough.

@nigelpstanley@mastodonapp.uk Possibly! I didn't know there was a difference, but after reading Wikipedia, yes it seems the lighter shades and even pink indicates Spanish as more likely. Or apparently it could be a hybrid.

@yurisizov@mastodon.gamedev.place Agreed with the sentiment and you do say "regardless of the source" but yeah, apparently the reason was a DDoS attack.

@GrantMeStrength@hachyderm.io Done. Works on the Mac despite not being, what's their term, validated? for it. Some quirks like non-resizable info windows.
Thanks!

@b0rk@social.jvns.ca In both bash since version 4 and zsh (don't know which version) "2>&1 |" can be written as "|&" but a) the old way is probably way more likely to work in any random shell, and b) I've always thought it was so strange, or sad if there is a compelling reason, that it couldn't be "&|" exactly the same as "&>". So I'm sure you're right to use the slightly more verbose way.
While searching for zsh info, I came across "multios". A whole other can of worms! https://zsh.sourceforge.io/Doc/Release/Redirection.html#Multios

@shanselman@hachyderm.io Edit: first off: awesome work and thanks for sharing!
The keyboard shortcut for switching between virtual desktops on Windows is Win+Ctrl+left/right. That seems more bothersome than MacOS: Ctrl+left/right, but on Mac laptops the Ctrl and arrow keys are on opposite sides of the keyboard... So it's a wash for most people probably. (I use Ctrl-left/right a lot with a full size keyboard!)

@riffraff@mastodon.social @hamatti@mastodon.world @ericwastl@hachyderm.io That's one aspect I can relate to. Something else is: to me half the fun is the daily posts and banter at /r/adventofcode. That wouldn't work well with a self-imposed delay.

@b0rk@social.jvns.ca @ripienaar@devco.social I've seen two positive stories from what I think are respectable sources: Chris Wellons who I know from r/C_Programming https://nullprogram.com/blog/2026/03/29/ and @adafruit@fosstodon.org whose blog is sadly down because of a C&D letter over reporting of a *negative* aspect, see their profile.

@simontatham@hachyderm.io @foldworks@mathstodon.xyz @GerardWestendorp@mathstodon.xyz Could become a Droste-like effect but with a bottom because of the diminishing degree. But I'm afraid the resize factor between steps is too great for any detail beyond 3 or so steps. Might be a fun zoom, though.
Replying to
@h5e@tech.lgbt @geerlingguy@mastodon.social I passionately agree. I think the trouble is that we know how to work around it being formatted but there are many (so. many.) more people who don't when it's not formatted.
Replying to
@poolitzer@mastodon.social @ericwastl@hachyderm.io That's 23 days, the last puzzle would come on 23 Dec. But yes, that's what I hoped for, too. I think it would add to the original intention "just for fun and learning". Of course, I CAN simply choose my own delayed schedule! But that would mean losing out on half the fun: the community banter at /r/adventofcode

Do you (does one) use it to look for optimisations of the table layout/keys/indices? Seems like a useful tool for complicated queries. I'm not a db designer anymore. When I was I had to rely on my Databases semester where we used this book:
