In-reply-to » @lyse I take it you also know their acoustic album “Visor om Slutet”? I love that one. 😍

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I actually didn’t know that and just listened to it. There are a few nice songs, but in general, it’s too boring to me. I’m missing the rock and metal elements for sure. Some of the calm songs might work to relax in a sauna or so. But I find the “wind noise” rather annoying.

Para conseguir pagar a minha viagem pra #PythonBrasil este ano (sendo que eu mal tou conseguindo pagar as minhas contas 😭 ) eu vou tentar vender mais canecas dessas aqui: https://umapenca.com/villares/caneca/l-system-arbusto-286376.html

Também tou querendo fazer bottons, que daria pra vender mais baratinho, tipo R$10. Mas tou muito em dúvida sobre quais desenhos as pessoas vão querer…

Yesterday, my mate and I left the house at 10 in the morning around 15 or 16°C. There was a steady wind blowing, the sun came and went every two minutes. The clouds looked really nice. Temperatures peaked at 21°C I reckon. Certainly great t-shirt weather. It was supposed to slightly rain at some point in the morning, but all we got was less than two hand full of drops and later the tiniest amount of drizzle for not even half a minute. So, nothing.

The weathermen also called for a cloudy arvo and partially sunny evening. The forecast must have scared off people right away, because there was noone around. We saw very dark clouds in the distance and there was certainly rain in the town. But out in nature, just a constant alternation between the sun and clouds.

Just before noon, we arrived at the bakery two villages over and got four fire brezels (with pepper, extremely tasty, but the fingers are an oily mess after that) and two nut sticky buns for provisions. This is where the small bird (19-23) was giving us a show.

It’s so dry, the landscape looks already like autumn for several weeks. Sooo many orange and brown leaves on the ground, it’s crazy. I hope we still get a real autumn and head not straight from summer into winter. Last weekend was still an awful 37°C.

This time, we paid the small entrence fee to walk around inside the ruin of Hohenrechberg Castle. The red sandstone looks super sick. I really dig it. It’s actually purplish at parts, no kidding. Absolutely unreal! At least for me, I normally only see the beige sandstone around here.

Right when we went down the castle ditch, both camera batteries were completely drained after just 880 photos in total. What a bummer. I saw a guy with a leather glove coming out of a door and immediately followed him to the aviary in the hopes of a show or something. That flight cage wasn’t there last time I visited the ruin. And we were lucky, the falconer fed his harris’ hawk and explained us along the way. Other families came and went, but we talked to him for at least 20 minutes. Super interesting. I think that was easily the best part.

At exactly 19 o’clock I unlocked the front door. Our feet were done. It was an amazing nine hours hike. :-)

The gallery is a tiny bit larger than usual, enjoy: https://lyse.isobeef.org/wanderung-auf-die-burgruine-hohenrechberg-2026-08-22/

At 8 o’clock, we had chilly 10°C. My mate and I dashed up our backyard mountain in just a tad under an hour. And that wasn’t the direct way. Our jumpers came off quick. It was really nice, because the sun was already warming and lighting up the landscape and everbody else still asleep. We had everything to our own.

Shortly after we were atop, the first two yoga women showed up with their mats. When we decended, a bunch more were on the way up. And then came the families with dogs and kids. Very glad to have missed all this hustle and bustle.

Now, I’m really tired. But it’s a great feeling of exhaustion. Two and a half hours later, we’re at 17°C. It’s supposed to hit an acceptable 23°C later on.

Unfortunately, no pics. I learned that charging via the docking station when the computer is turned off doesn’t do shit at all. Oh well.

Finalmente entendi o que era uma misteriosa e enorme linha vermelha luminosa na paisagem noturna da cidade, vista da minha janela!

Nesta foto tosca abaixo não fica visível o alto contraste e intensidade da linha, que na realidade, me lembra um sabre de luz vermelho, muito marcado.

A linha distante e imensa que não parecia “encaixar” nas fachadas dos prédios próximos… mas descobri: É um guindaste de obra gigantesco!

Vi esses dias um guindaste com uma linha vermelha iluminada perto da Av. Paulista e aí que caiu a ficha.

For me, the two most “magical” things about np.arrays are:

  • Vectorized/broadcast operations, like multiplying a matrix and a scalar value & adding or subtracting two vectors or two matrices - but also any vectorized function;
  • Masking & array indexing, being able to use arrays to select positions on other arrays;
  • Bonus-third-thing: multi-dimensional arrays in general are quite magical too, if you add slicing to it, good lord, it can be quite daunting.

There is this extremely annoying issue with my website:

https://movq.de/v/4acced3c8e/scroll.mp4

Notice how I’m scrolling, then switching to another tab, switching back, and then the scrolling position is different?

What the hell could cause this? It’s not always like this and I have only seen it in Firefox so far (but I very rarely use Chromium anyway), and this really happens a lot on my site but not on others.

Any ideas? Did I screw up the CSS somehow? 🤔

The #py5 #LiveCoding feature can be briefly described as a tool that runs your module mode sketch and keeps an eye on changes at the source file, updating the running sketch with changes you save from your editor/IDE.

You can use it with any coding editor, invoking it from the command line, or, if you use #Thonny IDE you could help me test this experimental version of the thonny-py5mode plug-in that adds a Live Coding mode!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I don’t do it that often, either. But when I do, I always wanted to have such a tool. :-) And since it turned out super easy to “implement” … Why not.

I never found myself in this situation. Even though I mess with commits on a daily basis. Just never the first one so far. 8-)

“Arguably the highest-profile contract cancellation for Flock came when the Los Angeles Police Department decided to non-renew its years-long contract with the company, a decision motivated by a searing internal audit of the company’s technology. The internal report found that, in just two months, Flock’s ALPRs contributed to 161 false stolen-vehicle alerts, resulting in a false-positive rate of 32.3 percent.”

Real tired of doing these, but here’s another Android developers vs Google update, this time there’s both good and bad news.

The good:
-Users will be able to enable “sideloading” for all current and future devices, attached to their Google account, rather than having to undergo the tedious 24 hour wait including process, on each device.

-Rather than these changes to “sideloading” and “advanced workflows” being implemented at random different dates, in different countries, we’ll all get them come 2027.

The bad:
As GrapheneOS developers recently mentioned “Google replaced pushing Git tags for certain source code with obtaining source code via Google Drive after making a request through Google Forms. It’s completely ridiculous and they’ve gradually become very slow at handling requests. They’re in clear violation of the GPLv2 now.”

Can you build from source? Perhaps not if there is just a download link.

It’s been a hot minute since I last used alien to convert a Debian package into an RPM packge. Or was it the other way around? No clue.

@arg@twtpub.com You actually can, but we highly discourage it and I haven’t really built “Edit” / “Delete” functionality in the Twtxt App that I know you’re using 😅 Twtxt being purely decentralised, meaning that there are absolutely zero decentralised, with the exception of the twtpub.com service you’re using to reduce as much friction as possible for newcomers to try things, makes supporting threads a bit of a controversial topic 😆 – In the end we are sticking with the Hash v2 extension, making threads use content addressing, so even if you did delete/edit a Twt, you have to be carefuly it hasn’t already been replied to in the ecosystem 🤣
