Here it is: Twitter engineers were told today to *print out* their last 30 to 60 days of code, so they could show it to Elon Musk himself.

Then they were told wait, no, actually, please shred all that code you just printed out.

I'm trying to pick out doorknobs and locks for the house and it turns out I have a lot of feelings about how doors should work

Features I want in door hardware:

• always unlocked from the inside
• always locked from the outside
• single keyhole on the outside
• momentary unlock with a key
• 12V DC momentarily unlock
• operates as normal when electronics are down

I'll wire it to the smarthome separately

Sooo... I've reinstalled my blog software from scratch so you might get new follow requests from me and might need to refollow this account? I don't entirely know.

I have no reason to leave twitter because my twitter is already just a shadow copy of my website, but if you want to find me elsewhere, you can follow me from Mastodon and micro.blog and others:

Not right now, but there's an API and it wouldn't take much to write a script to do that

For some background, I imported all my logs from 2008 to present into it a while ago. Previously they were in a variety of different formats depending on the server I was using at the time.

Looks cool! I'll have to check it out. Does it import the 10+ years of Google Timeline KML and/or GPX I have?

Our dystopia will be full of grays and washed out colors, just as sci fi movies told us it would be.

Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November.

I've used @aaronpk 's Compass + Overland iOS app before but can't remember if it supports live tracking?

That's exactly what it's for!

The cool thing about cyberpunk coming true is that we got ALL the cyberpunk futures.

China: universal surveillance and social control

America: cool gadgets and staggering inequality

Russia: shadowy plots, covert ops, and assasins

Japan: Japan

Over the next few months, I continued to gain the scammers trust. Eventually, I lied and told him that I was running low on money, and needed to earn some extra cash.

So I asked him if I could be a part of his scam.

He said yes.

That took us a long time too! We went with Schlage Connect in aged bronze. Works with HomeKit.

Yeah and I'm not even talking about the smart lock part yet! There's just lots of types of door hardware and different options for quick opening and deadbolts!

I've been using that new macOS/iOS feature where you can use your iPhone as a webcam and it's fantastic - quality is absolutely superb

Makes me wonder why Apple can't ship the iPhone camera built into a MacBook screen. Is the part just prohibitively expensive?
