Okay so language question. When Japanese speakers onomatopoeize "Bang", it sounds to me like they are saying "Pan". Are they saying "Pan" or "Ban", or are they saying "Bang" and it just sounds to me like "Pan" due to my limited familiarity with Japanese phonetics?

A quick post to my new LinkTree for links to everything I do - my main website for all my SAM Coupe development, the two smaller sites for ZX Spectrum hardware and peripherals for RC2014 & compatibles. My other social media accounts and my Tindie and eBay stores.

I had an earlier post about municipalities leaving X and joining Mastodon and a thought occurred to me.
Cities and towns could benefit from having their own instance running - the closest equivalent to Meta/Facebook. It would allow them to have separate groups for neighborhoods or communities within their municipality, and integrate easily with other Fediverse apps. It would give them more control and focus for their communications.

Oh fucking FINALLY, I got Copilot to shut up in VSCode (don't @ me ... Work nonsense). Intellisense is legit one of the best code completion tools on the market. And they replaced it with this nonsense that hallucinates more often than it's true.

Theory: "We can use Large Language Models to speed up process and improve code quality. First, we have an LLM write the tests..."

Practice: "I need to convince the client that unit tests are a worthwhile thing to have."

Ve spacím vlaku na Slovensko s prknem na hory. Totální ostalgie - lehátkový vagón ve stylu 70tých let... osamělý kousek Československa, co zůstal v provozu...

Celkově jsou noční vlaky ale super řešení.

kann irgendwer mit ein bisschen ahnung von ingenieurswesen (?) im entsprechenden bereich mal was zu dieser meiner idee schreiben? und zwar:

wir stellen bei uns allen elektrolyseure statt wärmepumpen in die keller. die erzeugen wärme zum heizen und der entstehende wasserstoff wird übers gasnetz ab- und „der industrie“ zugeführt.

bin mir sicher, da ist irgendwo nen ziemlich offensichtliches problem, bin normalerweise nicht so clever, dass ich als erster auf sowas komme. aber was ist es?

danke 😘

This is bad. This is very, very bad.

I'm not trying to pick on Python here, I pick it because Python is something I'm actively using, and so I have a vested interest in the project *not* being AI-vulnerable.

But it's not good, chat. It's very far from good, in fact.

“You aren’t trapped,” says Justin Miller, an American nurse who moved to Vancouver Island in Canada last month to leave life under Donald Trump. Since April 2025, British Columbia has approved more than 1,000 U.S.-trained nurses to work there. “You don’t have to stay. Health care workers are welcomed with open arms around the world.” Read more from @npr
