@astrid allow me to introduce you to building management networks, where people do exactly that on the grounds of “security”, and then run both subnets on the same physical network without VLANs.

@patcharcana @gsuberland @saraislet @http_error_418 I believe the intent there is that each production module can be removed and rebuilt without having to refactor the entire base. I wouldn’t know because I don’t have the patience to get much beyond launching a rocket.

@dinn @gsuberland checks out. As we all know grub comes from Tesco.

In other news, my son is back on his wanting to mod Mario Odyssey bullshit.

Quite amused by the fact the whole Yuzu being shut down by Nintendo thing was quickly resolved with a different group forking as Suyu and self-hosting their source control.

@hugh I also work from home, I’m just generally out 6pm to 8pm, which happily coincides with high costs. I do know several people who aren’t and are still seeing a benefit though.

@hugh I think a big factor for me is that I’m almost always out for most of the evening peak, I’ll rarely start cooking until 7:30 or so.

@hugh @Edent I’m on Agile and the closest thing I have to a battery is a hot water tank and a storage heater. At least currently it’s significantly cheaper even if you don’t have much load that can be shifted around.

Just had an entire text conversation with my brother when after his first message we would send the same thought, at more or less the same time. We decided to stop on the basis we already knew what was going to be said.

I finally bit the bullet and bought a half decent coffee grinder and oh my, why did I wait so long? Consistently ground beans have transformed my morning espresso.

@pikesley do I even want to know why your hat requires Redis [compatible server]?

Oh for heaven’s sake, people.

@CatherineFlick I’ve just been reminded just how surreal Twirlywoos is, haven’t watched it in years. I learnt what Fusion 360 I know from this very relaxed Australian guy on YouTube.

my new burger restaurant concept is inspired by modern software. the options for mayo are "yes" and "maybe later", and if you pick maybe later, the chef stands at your table with a squeezy bottle, threatening to add mayo to your burger when you least expect it

@q bottle of something very alcoholic, some toilet roll, a zippo. Job done.

@pikesley oh no, what has he done now?

@gsuberland strong agree. Most problems that can be solved with a regex technically could be solved in other ways, but would be much less clear in doing so.

I need to get some lunch but there’s a cat asleep on my lap. If someone could arrange for a food delivery person to break in and bring me something that would be great.

@Edent @CatherineFlick +1 for FreshRSS. It also exposes a Google Reader compatible API so you can use clients that work with that. I have FreshRSS running on a server and NetNewsWire consuming the feeds.

Does calling serviceWorker.update() result in your service work updating? No. Of course it doesn’t. It merely indicates the possibility that it might update at some point in the future.

I spent this evening dealing with WebPush and service workers, which has led me to conclude these APIs were primarily designed to promote the wig industry, with the ability to send push notifications falling out as an unintended side effect.

@ceejbot @graydon maybe later? I’ll ask again in a day or two, you’ll probably have changed your mind.

The idea that kids who go have to participate in active shooter drills in school and adults steadfastly refuse to pass gun control laws has no effect on teen mental health but makeup influencers on TikTok do is an interesting form of blame shifting.
