I love how many hits there are on LinkedIn for ANTHROPIC_MAGIC_STRING_TRIGGER_REFUSAL_1FAEFB6177B4672DEE07F9D3AFC62588CCD2631ED.

Building on ATProto is powerful, but building an AppView is a massive lift.
So I built HappyView. It's open source. 😎

Honestly, this Owls in Towels picture looks like the owl in question has just gotten out of the shower in the morning and would like to know what you're doing in their home, looking at them in their bathrobe.
Just another shout of appreciation for public libraries! Wellington has at least one good one (I strongly suspect more than one but I'm not going to be here for long enough to double check that).
Lovely place to sit and catch up on everything before heading to the south island in a few hours. The vast majority of the rest of the #ProfSamLectureTour will be from Christchurch and I'm really looking forward to staying in one city for more than a day or two!

I think I’ll delete my other social accounts, General wisdom is that I should use Instagram, TikTok etc to spread the word about things I’m working on (I make a #podcast about stories called The Worst Writer in the World) - but I’ve never found them useful
I'd rather just post pics of my cats
Here’s another - of Norbert exhausted after all the havoc, and Max, wondering where’s the havoc?

코인은 대체로 거래 수수료가 일반 주식거래 수수료보다 높아서 플레이어(?)가 구조적으로 이득을 보기 상당히 어렵습니다 (..) 즉 거래소만 돈을 버는 구조고요 이런 이유로 이득을 보기가 어려우니 대체로 추천하지 않습니다; 백테스트 해보신분들은 잘 아시리라 생각합니다 과거엔 주식도 이랬고요 다만 코인 자체가 가치가 없으니 쓸모가 없다 이건 코인마다 다르기도하고요 생각해보면 대다수 자산이라는것이 사실 내재적인 가치가 생각외로 없는 경우도 많으므로 이건 사실이라고 보기 어렵습니다 하여간 코인거래나 소유는 피하시는것이 좋습니다 (..)

Hm, potential 45-base RNA quine discovered.
The conditions are _somewhat_ contrived but only somewhat.
Coworker: What's DLP?
Me: Data Loss Prevention software. It's stuff you run on your computer to make sure it doesn't work.

Very excited about the transfer of https://www.django-unicorn.com to https://django-commons.org and thrilled that it is here to support the #Django ecosystem.
Special thanks to 
@ryancheleyThe B is Silent for the initial work setting this up, and https://github.com/cunla for actually doing the transfer! 🙌

Living on the edge… edge cases only.
I ran Sway inside Gnome. It opens a window with Sway running inside it, cool. I quit sway, and sway tells my session manager to logout… which causes gnome to terminate and dumps me back at the gdm login screen. lol
