Given the maxim "fuck around and find out" it seems eminently logical to only fuck around a *little bit* and then find out and correct.
Honestly that's the heart of agility.

I broke a coffee mug over the weekend, it was new, I wanna fix it.
Looks like stake of the art is Epoxy and most epoxy isn't food safe?
Art Resin brand Resin is FDA certified food safe (they say FDA certified and in Canada and Great Britain and 13 other countries, which is a claim you can't make without getting in very fraud, but also worthless), but it only allows up to 50ยฐC before that's worthless.
The MSDS on other resins and epoxies seems to be not food-safe?
Anyone know how to fix a coffee cup?
Was thinking maybe finding some non-PB tin?

I came across a first-hand account of somehow who escaped the fire in #Lahaina and she noted that many roads out of town were privately owned by sugar plantations and were chained shut.
She says people died in their cars trying to escape.
These people were murdered by #PrivateProperty.
All of those sugar plantations were enclosed by the Hawaiian monarchy and sold off to American colonists, who in turn overthrew the monarchy and cemented their control of the islands and their lands.
Dying because of a chained gate on land that was stolen from the Hawaiian people is as surely murder as if theyโd been pushed into the flames.

I am once again posting that i need a new job! I'm an experienced full-stack web developer, focused on PHP and CMS work (CraftCMS, ExpressionEngine, even Wordpress (for my sins)). Also Laravel! I love Laravel! My JS skills are solid, I'm extremely nitpicky about semantic HTML and high-quality CSS, and I'm passionate about accessibility and the WCAG standards. I've got great SQL chops and i love data, too!
Please let me know if you have an opportunity!

@Hypolite Petovan yeah - basically
In university I wrote a tool called The Eye of Argonizer (makes text more like The Eye of Argon) and a wikipedia dump and the Eye of Argonizer ported out of ancient java, easy to do
Put OpenAI on a tarpit that serves the Eye of Wikipedia on the fly, and and distribute it as a plugin service

I should do the courses, become a certified SOC/ISO/whatever auditor, and then dye my hair blue
I have some of my most fun work conversations with auditors - but ... uh... the auditor stereotypes always make me laugh

@Hypolite Petovan It's just
I love talking to auditors, they seem so refreshingly dedicated to work. And yet whenever I talk about audits people are like "auditors are boring" and so ...
I would make a normal audit person - right? Make people being audited explode

One thing I am noticing in my auto-complete location bar, and my searches, is that top level pages are getting ignored.
If I go to "example.com" it will show "example.com/blog_post" but will only fill example.com at the last minute.
It feels like we're being dragged by automation toward the less Destination Web and more the Search Web.
(to be clear this is with DuckDuckGo and Firefox not even with Google/Google)

Ug, I wrote an #UnknownArmies module about a group of ex-coworkers from <closed news service> infiltrating a rave run by a cult in order to out magic for a <billionaire trying to drive traffic to social network>, but uh, Sleepers, Cultists, and personal Drama.
And then I never got to run it!

It's the whole history of the web.
SGML was intended to overcome proprietary file formats for documents, marking text semantically, leaving it to the user to decide how to display it. HTML was originally an instance of SGML.
From the beginning, people were trying to thwart the design of HTML to force people to see pages specific ways. The early books on web design were mostly about how designers could abuse the standard with "tricks" to control the experience of users.

There's a theme in my Burning Wheel game that our spellcasters have:
Read
Calligraphy
Symbology
but not the Write skill, it often ends up leading to very funny situations.
Our belief is that Wizards can Spell but they can't spell

I wish I had a tool to manage my webapps separately from my web pages. Maybe a way to launch individual services and update them separately from my reference tool.

I am wishing we wrote standalone software rather than just being like "let's make the web a complication target because driveby malware is too hard and installed software is too easy to learn and get used to"

One of the interesting things about ChatGPT is that I think most people who think it's smart deal with ChatGPT and not prompting a model directly.
ChatGPT is very much the most obviously designed to look human.
I rememeber GPT2 and people being like "whoa, this is cool" and then kinda... nothing. After a bit OpenAI had to be like "oh we have GPT3 now! But.... uh... if we release it, it'll end the human race. So uh... better not...."
