(Smart Home) Automation with Node-RED
Yesterday I expanded the memory in my home and code server to 16 GB and wondered what I could do with all the resources this server provides me. So I looked around a bit and came across an open source program called Node-RED. Especially in the context of Smart Home and Home Assistant, I’ve heard about it a few times, but never looked into this software in more detail. ⌘ Read more

@movq would it be possible to trim the subject to, say, 100 or 140 characters? Just the subject.

If
Subjectcontains the full twt, then you can skim over conversations just by reading those lines in mutt’s index pager
Yes, I do the same, true.
So I decided: Okay, let’s have mutt do it.
And Mutt does it well. I agree it was/is a good idea.
The subject lines are already “compressed”
I noticed, yes.
I am not sure why I asked to begin with; in retrospect, in was a silly request. Perhaps the OCD in me got triggered while viewing rich headers, on a specific twt, when I saw the huge subject line that is, otherwise, always hidden.
Anyway, don’t mind me, move along. 😂
My home and code server now has 2 TB of SSD storage and 16 GB of RAM. While I’ll be using the storage for backups, etc., I’m not quite sure what I can use the 16 GB of RAM for yet. What else can I run besides Home Assistant, AdGuard Home, Drone and Tailscale? I still have my VPS running my websites, Miniflux, Bitwarden, Firefox Sync Server, RSS-Bridge, Firefly III, Nitter and Gitea. 🤔 ⌘ Read more
Diversity, inclusion, and belonging at GitHub in 2021
In the past two years, GitHub has doubled in size, welcoming more than 760 new Hubbers in 2021 alone. This past year we particularly focused on our goal of making GitHub more equitable. We saw growth in our diversity representation, whose population increased at a higher rate than the company itself. ⌘ Read more

Just like your highschool girlfriend in Afghanistan “doesn’t need saving”, right? I think it is a language issue you are having, as English isn’t your mother tongue.
QAnon followers are cultist nuts. Some of them wanting out are finding that it is a hard thing to do (did you read the article?). Saying that “they don’t need to escape” is a silly thing to say, at the very least. To me, it just doesn’t make sense.
I realized this morning why I’m put off by super hero movies. They are fun, and I’ve always loved comic books, but the super hero movies of the last decade specifically, (I mean, beside being military propaganda) totally omit the potential future of any sort of utopia. They cannot envision their own undoing.
The stories are predicated on the super heros always needing something to be super against, despite having fantastical abilities to help usher in some sort of uto … ⌘ Read more

Speed up Building with Docker BuildX and Graviton2 EC2

In a previous blog we outlined how to build multi-arch images locally using the QEMU emulator […]

** Data Types and Variables in C **
I’ve been writing a heap of Lua lately — this has lead to my becoming interested, again, in C. Here are some ancient notes I dug up on the most basics of data types and variables in C.
All of a computer’s memory is comprised of bits. A sequence of 8 bits forms a byte. A group of bytes (typically 4 or 8) form a word. Each word is associated with a memory address. The address increases by 1 with each byte of memory.
In C, a byte is an object that is as big as t … ⌘ Read more

Peter Saint-Andre: There’s No Such Thing as a Kudo
It always warms my heart when we import a word directly from ancient Greek into English. Often they are are philosophical locutions, such eudaimonia and ataraxia. Yet at times more mundane terms make the leap; perhaps the most common one these days is kudos (e.g., “kudos to you on aceing that algebra test!”). Consistent with modern English usage, people tend to pronounce it “koo-doze” and think of it as a plural (“that algebra test was really hard so you deserve many kudos for ac … ⌘ Read more
“I’m worried about humanity’s future.”
Via Nicholas Danes I came across the video of Arun Maini (Mrwhosetheboss): “I’m worried about humanity’s future”. In this he addresses some good aspects. It’s about the impact of technology on our lives, society and behaviour. For example, he talks about the fact that algorithms are increasingly trying to keep us in front of the screen for as long as possible, that echo chambers are creating more and more negativity, and that we may soon no longer be able to d … ⌘ Read more
