Day 20 of the #100DaysToOffload 2021 Series:
Just finished this book, and I thought I'd write a book review. TL;DR, I liked it. You should read it. Because I said it was good.
"I don't have time right now to trouble shoot your code. Please take some time to review it and experiment."
This wasn't directed at me, but I have a hard time thinking of a situation where this is a productive response. It may be true, but sheesh, it doesn't exactly make for a friendly work environment. Thankfully we're all working from home, and I don't have to feel the palpable tension that comment would have caused if we were all still sitting in the same space.
If the video on the page is to be believed, JingOS may be one of the slickest PHONE OSs available. They didn't really run anything that wasn't one of their own tools, so it's hard to say how this would work with standard Linux apps, but it looks much more polished than most if not all the existing mobile interfaces for Linux. Thoughts?

@nd Been anxiously waiting the results of your AMA post.
Day 19 of the #100DaysToOffload 2021 Series:
Word has come down from on high that we're going to be returning to the office this summer. Probably. So, I guess that means I'm going to need some keyboard recommendations.
Day 18 of the #100DaysToOffload 2021 Series:
Since migrating from write.as to Jekyll, I haven't had any analytics on my page. I've done a little bit of research on it, and this is what I've decided to do.
Problem happens.
Tries a bunch of stuff. Nothing works.
"Hey, maybe this other extremely unlikely thing will do the job? I'll try just so I can say I covered my bases."
Tries it. It works.
"Right now I'm very, VERY surprised and more than a little afraid."
Quickly signs off because it's almost 9:00PM and I really don't want to have to explain that to anybody.
Gnome 40 release video. I'm really looking forward to giving it a shot. Sorry about the YouTube link.
Day 17 of the #100DaysToOffload 2021 Series:
After seeing several articles recently talking about exa, I decided to give it a whirl. Might be worth your time if you spend any at the command line, especially if you're a git user.
Day 16 of the #100DaysToOffload 2021 Series:
Stallman has returned. Some see this as a good thing, but I just can't get behind that.
Second post on the blog (but first without Jekyll)
Bye Jekyll! https://scyllasequence.com/2.html
Is there an easy way of watching a file system tree & launching a command if something changes?
(it can be done in a 10 line shell script with inotify; is there a neat one-liner for this? or something that's more robust as a service?)
Browsing the #Fosstodon timeline, watching my son play video games, on my second glass of wine. An interesting vintage called Educated Guess. I thought it was close to appropriate since there doesn't seem to be one called Uneducated Guess.
Dear Fosstodon, I need your help regarding #Wordpress
Please tell me which plugins I should definitely install on a newly set up website to optimize it for search engines, keep loading times low etc.
I'm looking for stable plugins, which do not introduce major security flaws or increase the maintenance overhead and make managing this site a breeze once it's set up
FYI this website is not my own but for an NGO a friend of mine founded recently and which I offered to manage
