TIL: You can get watermelon poisoning.
It's terrible, I do not recommend.

is that like...eating too much watermelon? or watermelon poisoning like how lettuce can give you food poisoning?

BTW, the reason I found this sentence is because the documentation for the "httr" R package linked to it https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/httr/vignettes/secrets.html

oh wow yeah, I can see how that would be incredibly confusing. Well for the record, OAuth secrets are absolutely supposed to be secret, and we have different solutions for deployments that can't keep secrets.

Controversial opinion: recurring payment are an anti-pattern.

If a product/service does not have enough value to justify a quick "one click" checkout on a monthly basis, then anything recurring is rent seeking.

I know of at least one other person who shares this opinion :-)

"The process results in a client ID and, in some cases, a client secret, which you embed in the source code of your application. (In this context, the client secret is obviously not treated as a secret.)"

from https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2

I'm confused.

Good find... that is a really confusing sentence. I'm going to try to track that down and see if they can remove it.

Having one of those moments where I feel like I need to tear up my entire office and living room and reorganize things and get rid of clutter, but that is not a project I should start at 5pm on a Sunday

Update: I spent an hour cleaning and organizing, and ended up with two bags to take to goodwill. Not bad.

This app is single handedly why I think the @LumixUSA GH5 (and others) are the best studio cameras 👍

Confirmed, this is lifechanging! Thanks for the tip! Didn't even have to buy any new gear 🤣

@aaronpk makes sense. I’ve got a larger residence, and I wanted in-wall switches so my wife & kids could keep using their muscle memory, which left us with zwave and weird stuff like Leviton as the options.

I'm glad that's working! I'm also testing this stuff out so that when I end up in a bigger place I know what to get, and I definitely want every light switch to be connected to the system!

@aaronpk gotcha! In my case I’ve been impressed with the performance of the ZWave devices but you’ve definitely tried more things than I have!

I'm also hesitant to go all z-wave because the devices tend to be a lot more expensive! If any of my other stuff starts failing in weird ways I'll give it a shot tho, maybe the cost is actually worth something.

@aaronpk does your Z-Wave software allow you to reorganize the network? I found that to be essential to fixing some connectivity issues I had. I’m using the Razberry / ZWay software. Post organization the mesh-ness was much more reliable for me.

There's a "heal network" button or something, but tbh I don't have enough z-wave devices to try it. Also my apartment is like 600 sq ft so pretty much everything is in direct line of sight to the receiver 😂

Looking for a simple hub for my new home office. I want USB-C to my computer and then 4x USB-C and USB-A ports on the hub. Nothing else (HDMI, Ethernet, microSD, etc.). I can’t find anything!

I've looked for that kind of thing too! I think USB-C is still too new and nobody is making hubs that provide additional USB-C outputs!

What drives me crazy about YouTube is after all this time I still don’t understand how it actually works.

I feel like a mouse in a test pushing the button hoping it’s a treat and not a shock.

And I’m not complaining about revenue that’s been having a field day.

YouTube 🤷‍♂️

I think even Google doesn't know how YouTube works
