It seems simple to set up... I would, though not while my site is hosted on a hosting control panel as oppose to a bare server... unless you know whether Plesk can support Lumen? i couldnt' find anything.

I didn't package this up for easy deploying on shared hosting. It will run, but you'll need to be able to either run SSH commands to install the dependencies, or do that on another machine and upload. I'm also not sure about how well the background tasks will work via cron.

Stop thinking AI is magic. It’s not magic. It’s three if/then statements in a trench coat backed up against Grandma’s photo album and a dump truck full of bank statements.

I got an electric cargo bike a few months ago (a Tern GSD). It's the best. I love taking the kiddos to school on it. Also, @austinenergy just sent me a $300 rebate check.

Awesome! I've had my eye on that one too. For hauling stuff tho, not kiddos.

Sadly my NFC tags don't have enough capacity to store my vaccine card data. I wanted to carry mine around as an NFC sticker. I guess I could make one that redirects to a URL of the QR code but that sounds less fun.

My mac says "Your screen is being observed" on the lock screen. How do I tell what app is doing this?? I've already turned off screen recording permissions for all apps in the Privacy section. And rebooted.

Update: I found the app causing the "Your screen is being observed" message! It is the drivers for the 3dconnexion SpaceMouse! Why that needs screen recording capability is beyond me.

Teams can absolutely be high-performing when working remotely. This is a hill I will die on. It just takes leaders with empathy who are willing to trust their people.

For a second there I thought you were taking about MS Teams and I was like what world do you live in 😅

Someone reminded me that "web 2.0" was also eaten by its own boil-the-ocean project, the Semantic Web. But at least no one poured billions of dollars into RDF and ontologies and converting the planet to XML. This time we gave the architecture astronauts access to limitless money

@aaronpk, isn't Compass open to the public anymore? I think I used it a year or so ago, but now I get a "User Not Registered".

It's open source, but I decided I didn't want to host people's GPS data for multiple reasons so I turned off new user accounts on my instance a couple years ago.

The first two pages of a google search almost never surface blogs or personal websites anymore.

Every worthwhile question you could think to ask has been anticipated and occupied by search-engine-optimized by assholes.

The internet hasn't been free for a really long time.

yes let’s debate whether it’s better to have one hour of sunlight on the way to work or on the way home from work rather than question whether the workday should be so long as to take up all the sunlight on a winter’s day

~5yrs ago @woloski picked up the lunch tab, over mild perfunctory protest, saying that @auth0 was making a little money now & could afford it. I felt a little bad about it (but also really like free stuff so wasn't gonna decline). Seems rather quaint now.

I've been a paying Spotify customer for music since the day it launched in the US, but its continued moves to takeover and lock up the podcast space has me reconsidering that entirely. I don't want to support a company locking up the open internet.

It is possible to be enthusiastic about decentralised identifiers, while skeptical of DIDs. That's pretty much where I am so far.

@aaronpk Are you planning on doing any research on the new Atomos ATOMX Cast? Nobody has yet done a comparison with the Atem Mini/Pro.

I hear John is getting a hold of one soon...
