Last weekend I was at #OggCamp , I didn't speak at the event myself this year but plenty of other people did! It was great to see some new faces, but most of all I appreciate this diverse and disparate set of people that I probably wouldn't see anywhere else, and the conversations we have when we come together.

Thank you @nextcloud@mastodon.xyz for the "deleted files" feature! I keep things in my Nextcloud that aren't under source control - mostly write-once content things like conference talks, notes folders, etc. And I just deleted the wrong filename pattern .... oops!
If you don't know NextCloud, it's the self-hosted Dropbox alternative. And when I say self-hosted, actually I'm using it as-as-service from the excellent humans over at @thegoodcloud@mastodon.nl . So it's more like "choice-hosted" or something
@linuxlucy@mastodon.org.uk we were talking about the Kraken data display earlier at #oggcamp and it turns out it's a public dashboard https://dashboard.kraken.tech/
I find it somehow fitting that I'm on my way to #oggcamp and I've finally figured out how playlists work on my phone in VLC after de-spotifying quite some time ago (or maybe this functionality got better since I last tried?)
Learning about PHP 8.5 with @derickr@phpc.social at @LeedsPHP@phpc.social this evening. Cold night but a good turnout and there’s a second talk on Clickhouse to come!
Just realised that I'm so far behind with processing my Zettelkasten inbox that the week numbering system I use is in danger of looping ... On the plus side that does mean I'm reading and writing again after what feels like too long.
Funny how you can sometimes feel "fine" but your executive function tells a different story, for me it shows up in unprocessed things (inbox, notes, photos, and laundry!)
Delighted to have managed to get myself to #Monkigras this year! I have only done one previous Monkigras event and it was life changing, so who knows what this year will bring!
Is it even social media if you only read the sources you choose for yourself, in chronological order?

@sue what scares me is that there are people paid to work on software who think that bash scripting is some kind of old magic.

@oggcamp I live in Huddersfield but due to my flair for logistics I'll actually be traveling from Oslo to Manchester this time
Attempting a new skill tonight: ceiling paper
This change in the token window arrangements from Claude is great! I always leave work on time now, because I've always run out of tokens and the end of the day is when I most need the second opinion! Pretty sure I'm actually getting more done by bailing on time and having something to immediately pick up next morning
It's been a while since I last looked at openapi-changes and ohhhhh, that's a nice output, including markdown format (actually a little bit much with emoji all over it and it could do with some markdown format linting, but I can re-parse it for something more professional!)

@slowe I love this! I have many happy memories of popping in for various events and coworking with you all. What an impressive list of projects.

@jrf_nl Thanks for the recommendation! That looks like another good tool to add to the box (and I use gh quite a bit already).
Is anyone using trust scoring on PRs to help evaluate things during this influx of noise on public repositories? I'm looking at https://github.com/marketplace/actions/good-egg-trust-scoring-prs and would love to hear others' stories! #openSource

@saramg good morning, hope you got some sleep! Sending lots of love and luck for this new chapter.

@anarodrigues@front-end.social thank you for this VERY good article. I relate to so much of it, and I don't have any advice but I wanted to say that I'm glad you're here, in tech.

@misingtale @stevefenton the paper is still up! Just repairing the water damage in the bay window in my office. We're doing the wallpaper tonight (again just that corner)

@sue the real irony is that I mostly write shell type scripts in python now. I do still use a Makefile in any project where I can't be overruled about that sort of choice though

@holly_cummins oh I bet that’s going to be good, have a fabulous event!
The brand named after you is less fun than it might be because the only thing they make that fits me is the bags!

@mark@mastodon.fixermark.com @b0rk@social.jvns.ca @eri@moth.zone This is a very articulate summary of why I love my blog so much. I don't mind other visitors, but it's really for me :)

@emf Some of my plants are splitting and I'm running out of windowsill space, I would love to bring and share!
