Checking in briefly. Friends are all still alive, and a particular pink-haired gamedev is still swearing at Unity. Seems like business as usual.
Just reporting that I am still alive and do read this, though I have nothing non-political to post at the moment.

Looking forward to #pyconau tomorrow. And thanks to SMASH!, I now know how to get to the ICC 😅

I'm experimenting with Weave's Flux and Bitnami's Sealed Secrets for Kubernetes, and geez the documentation is fairly poor or non-existent.

It's remarkable to me that after years of research into graph-databases and specialized data structures (to model social relationships), Mastodon has succeeded with, uhh, Rails on top of Postgres. I love it.

Why did you click on this??
I kinda want a fork of Mastodon where button says NYOOT instead and you get a GIF of Pingu every time you Nyoot.
Why can I only interact with a toot from my timeline and not from a user's profile page? :S
