My #ScottAdams Story
In the 1990s, I worked as an office temp. I logged a lot of hours in a lot of different offices, and I had an instant and accurate way to sense how dysfunctional and toxic a workplace was as soon as I walked in.
I took note of how many #Dilbert comics were pinned up, and where.
If I saw one or two #Dilbert comics scattered around, I knew people had their gripes and complaints about their co-workers, but it was nothing too serious.

On a day when I need to write MSBuild, there's this process that always happens. The first ten or fifteen minutes, I'm having *fun*. I'm doing something deleriously goofy. I'm *programming in XML*! I'm managing the impossible. I'm playing a Zachtronics game. And then I get to the second ten or fifteen minutes and the third. And the second or third hour.
And what I am feeling is kind of. Less "fun" at that point. More "Ah the sorrow of a thousand years! How it presses down upon my soul"

A quote from the article:
"Christmas itself was known for feasting and drunkenness – and it lasted nearly six weeks."
Medieval peasants probably enjoyed their holiday festivities more than you do
> The Middle Ages weren’t as dreary and desperate as you’d think, and peasants often had weeks of idle time during the holidays. On Christmas Day, the party was just getting started.

@Em0nM4stodonEm 
in my religion (the baha'i faith), our prophet says that this world is like a lotus flower -- while the outermost petals might convince you that it is dying, inside of the core of the flower is a tight spindle of new growth that, when the time is right and the development mature enough, it will flower.
it's an artful way of saying that for as much as the world continues to worsen, it improves in quiet ways. in a time of oppression, we are building new community.
@Em0nM4stodonEm it is not to dismiss the very real violence and strife people face on a daily basis, now more than ever. but it is wisdom that asks people to look for the ways in which we can improve our world on an interpersonal basis.
that kind of community is the pancreas that freedom hides in, and all of us are doing that work to make the world better every day.
Today in ancient anecdotes about being a level-headed politician:
After Duke Wen of Jin took over, some disgruntled ministers decided to burn down the palace and do a little dukeicide. The Eunuch Pi (who had previously tried to assassinate the new Duke not once but twice) requested an urgent audience with his lordship to report this.
The Duke refused him entry: “At the Battle of Pu City, your lord commanded you to arrive within a day, and you appeared instantly. Later, when I was hunting with the Lord of Di by the river, you were ordered to kill me within three days and you made it in just two. For someone who was ‘just following orders,’ doesn’t that sound awfully eager? I still have the sleeve you cut off LAST time, jackass. Off is the direction in which you may fuck!”
The eunuch replied: “You MUST have figured out by now the relationship between a minister and lord. If not, your reign will be short indeed. We cannot serve two masters; this has always been how it works. If your lord hates someone, your job is to do something about it — this Pu tribe, that Di guy, whatever. Now that you’re in charge, is there never gonna be a “this” tribe or “that” guy again? The Duke of Qi promoted the guy who shot him to his right-hand man. If there’s a change up top, how is it a sin to have been loyal to the previous lord? That includes pretty much everybody — why single me out?”
The Duke of Jin relented and heard him out.

To help with the issue of IPv4 address exhaustion I propose we finally issue incomplete addresses such as 1.2.3, thus adding 16843008 to the pool without a need of introducing longer addresses like IPv6 would require. I dont know why no one has thought of this yet.
@nyanbinarymalte.nyanbinary I think its IPv6 exhaustion thats the problem: the addresses are so long, software engineers get exhausted just looking at them, much less implementing them

"Apple Intelligenceのパートナーの座を巡っては、OpenAIやAnthropicも激しい売り込み合戦を繰り広げていたとみられる。それでもGoogleが勝利したのは、過去の財務的な結びつきに加え、純粋な「技術力の差」が決め手になったというのが観測筋の見方だ。"
