Just went down a confusing rabbit hole because it appeared out of Nine Inch Nails's free "Ghosts" albums, Tidal had 1-4 and 6 but not 5. Then it turned out they had 5 but had classified it as a single (it's 70 minutes long)

I need a few—probably 3—of an "office busy light" product like this amzn.to/4b1vvUZ for a home office setup. But:

1. They all cost like $50 which seems like *way* too much for an LED on a stick
2. That cost seems to mostly pay for software that directly integrates with Microsoft Teams. I have no need for integration with Microsoft Teams and in fact kind of anti-want that.
3. I want to write my own automations and it's not clear if they have an API

Is there a cheap/DIY version of this?

@codinghorrorJeff Atwood @simonSimon Willison In addition to what's already been mentioned, I find the concept of claw agents taking the *initiative* and making suggestions to improve any process they have access to quite appealing. If you're willing to give them full access, they could, theoretically, suggest ways to improve your daily life in general. The key difference is doing stuff you don't even know you need improving.

Zahalkaworld: an artist’s archive – in pictures

The Artist (self portrait) 1988 from the series Resemblance II

Through her work, Anne Zahalka offers a critical analysis of cultural and environmental tensions, often using humour and playfulness as a tool for examination. Zahalka employs photography, painting and photomontage combined with darkroom techniques, later adopting digital methodologies.

Bringing up my quarterly complaint that there isn’t a service that all news services use for micro-payments so I don’t have to subscribe to 100 news sources.

I’d love to give you money to read an article, but I’m not subscribing for one article.

Wrote something a bit personal today.

18 years in healthcare admin at Duke → coding bootcamp → Django developer → Core Contributor → DjangoCon Communications Chair.

The Django community was a huge part of how that journey worked. Felt worth saying out loud.

We're also going to work on the this year.

This starts with moving the directory to a new pull-request-based system so admins can submit, update, or remove entries themselves.

Another change we want to make is to add more and new ways to “classify” different types of servers including demographics, interests, and geographic regions.

Once we have that kind of information, we can start to explore new ways to incorporate it into the onboarding process. Stay tuned...

In other news, we're moving off to @zulip.

Our first step will be to migrate the people on our existing Discord servers to Zulip. Then we also want to extend access to more and different kinds of people who are deeply engaged and actively contributing to Mastodon and the .

We're going to move slowly and carefully because we want to be thoughtful about how we build out this space. Running this community space is important, but it does add coordination and moderation overhead to our small team.

How would a space like this be useful to you? Let me know in the comments :)

Looking beyond Mastodon.social and Mastodon.online, our big project to support the Mastodon network of servers this year is a series of experiments to replace the `join mastodon.social` button with a button that recommends a server running default Mastodon from an opt-in pool that we will be hand-selecting to start.
