Just planted my first DIY Olla clay pot to water my greenhouse.
I've made two over the last 72h by sticking together two clay pots. (They can hold ~10L)
I think I need at least two more :D

Just buried a second olla clay pot in the greenhouse. 🍅
The potato jungle is growiiiiing WOOOOSH
Just installed 2 automatic window-opener in my greenhouse. Now 3 of 4 windows open automatically when it gets too warm, they only react to a wax getting hot and a coil expanding, no electronics =)
The other window is using an old system, I tried to repair it today, but it looks like I need to replace it 🙃
Why do companies prefer platforms like bluesky? It’s really simple: advertising.
There are no advertising mechanisms on the Fedi, no „business accounts“ with analytics, monetisation tooling, etc.
There simply is no way to create a following by spending money, or selling a service or product.
And maybe that’s a good thing? :)

@mrc@mastodon.berlin That sounds like bearings failing :( But odd that it stops. I can pick you up in worse case 😅
Did a quick detour on my dead X account today to see what's up.
First thing I saw was a post liked by thousands that claimed Hitler was socialist and that people trying to debunk it are fascists.

@mrc@mastodon.berlin Well I've worked with these systems briefly and from what I know: everybody hates each other. Banks don't want PDS2 because it forces the concept of "open banking" on them, that the EU requires (and slowly the US). The middlemen like Qwist or TrustLayer need to implement hundreds if not thousands of different banks with different APIs and mechanisms. The users get a shitty experience when that market isn't big enough or the relationship between bank and provider isn't on ideal terms.
I hope the football fans remind the current US administration daily that they are an absolute disgrace. I don't expect pro-palestian-level support we saw on the Vuelta last year from cycling fans, but who knows.
Diemelsee in Sauerland (which I did not know before) was a nice little break. Hiking and wildcamping with the kid was a ton of fun.
Now I want to come back with MTB and/or race bike :D
Improvised à little hike with my kiddo today, and tonight we'll try out the bed I had build in the car "just in case" 2 years ago 😄
Hello from Sauerland
And while this story is somewhat surreal. Only one generation later did Germans and Dutch start parts of this family.
And this just demonstrates that through hope, diplomacy, and forgiveness entire populations can eventually trust each other again, and even love each other, despite living a traumatic period.
Ok Microsoft

@eljojo@ruby.social Yea I was doing something similar too, but it didn't help, and since Anthropic posted about "emotion concepts" I've toned down the skills a tone to see if it improves the outcomes.
It does not on this one :D
And of course because LLMs are trained on the average of average engineers this is a valid reply: `The two lint warnings are pre-existing, not caused by my changes.`

I keep seeing absolute narratives about AI. "It will solve everything" to "it will just go away".
Obviously both are wrong. Thousands of companies have already deployed AI systems and seeing real benefits. Many solutions are typical Machine Learning problems people have been solving for decades. It just got more accessible. And equally there are ton of idiotic execs making drastic decisions out of gut feeling and sinking a ton of money for no good reason. Both are true.
Kavinsky Noooooooooooooooooo 😢
Another French House loss :(
RIP
Once again DPolG is demonstrating they area bunch of fascists.
Never thought I'd "love a jira board"
Watching our fluado board update with agents working in the background is something beautiful :D
I have a Bakfiets with a Shimano Steps motor. And it suddenly became super loud when I turn the cranks (either way). I have never serviced an ebike before, and the whole system is "closed", so I'm not where to even begin "debugging".
Has anyone has had a similar issue before and knows how to resolve and start this?
"I read a title of a random paper and posted it on social media, I'm such an expert"
Mermaidviewer wants me to "Sing in"……… sing my password or what?
Feels a bit dull here at times. Everybody just complaining about LLMs for the 100th time. You're just the other side of the LinkedIn mirror where everybody is just pretending to be an AI expert for the 100th time.
Both audiences think they understand all the aspects of the technology, the economics, the claims, its future…
Zero nuance & 100% armchair expertise on both platform.

@edasfr Mais le cout des runs qui augmentent et le delai causé par une suite e2e ca reste un probleme non ?

Been listening to this banger on repeat for the last couple days https://soundcloud.com/stand-high-patrol/dem-try

Life is absurd #73419219:
Zeit.de has published a NSDAP search engine letting anyone find out by name who was a registered member of the Nazi Party.
Long story short: A member of one part of the family was in fact a NSDAP member, and actively bombing the other part of the Dutch (and perhaps Belgian) family. The exact towns.
I suppose this isn't much a surprise. But had he bombed a bit more to the left, or had the Dutch shot him, or family might not exist.

Deezer knows me too well… This is my current "discover" section 😆

@kneath@indieweb.social Yes without knowing how GH works internally, this sounds like a typical scenario of stupid features, ego and politics. 😄
Replying to
@mrc@mastodon.berlin This is typical EU PSDA2 guideline. Third-parties that require bank account get logged out after N days and require new authentication.
Some banks and some authentication providers don't "work well together", and then you don't have a seamless experience.
And yes the back is a row of raspberries and there is one rhubarb hiding between the potatoes

@bitboxer@mastodon.social Instead of holding the saddle I found it more helpful to hold them at the back of their shirt, the effect of center of gravity is closer to riding alone I think. Also better for my back 😄
je comprend vraiment pas la stratégie du PS. Le parti a été vidé de tout sens, idéologie, personnalités et électeurs en faveur du centre. (Tout comme LR l’a fait en faveur du RN.) Et maintenant ils se réclament de gauche et sabotent le seul parti (LFI) avec une chance réaliste de peser ?
Big brain le PS.
My life lately, hooray ML/Data Engineering.
Ministral is a pretty neat model.
(Can't provide more context because NDA)
SoundCloud's abysmal web performance results.
Come on.
Dang looks like a vole attacked one of my tomatoes in the greenhouse. I'll try to save it…
