Anyone else always have issues writing out withdrawal as withdrawl constantly or am I just a special type of person?

hey everyone,

you may have guessed reading between the lines, but I lost my job in the recent tech layoffs…

also burnt out and realised I need to go back to working on stuff I care about.

I hope to gather enough small monthly sponsors to at least cover the bills, so I can:

- 🖥️ create beautiful apps for #Linux / #GNOME

- ✏️ provide free #design support to #OpenSource projects

if you like my work, please consider $1/month to make this possible?

thank you. :)

I am always amazed by the expert mode of the SQLite CLI.

You type .expert
Then you paste your SQL query.
And #sqlite tells you which indexes you should create to speed up your query.

No AI, no complex program to install. No expensive database architect to pay for. It's just clever programming.

To my knowledge this is the only database in the world to have this feature.

Not sure why I took so long to do this but moved our db backup encryption from gpg to age. It was very easy just one of those todo list items that seem to never get checked off. Well, now it's checked.

@ols @nilix This is what I've got:

$ ls $GOPATH/pkg/mod/humungus.tedunangst.com/r/
go-sqlite3@v1.2.1/  gonix@v0.1.4/  termvc@v0.1.3/  webs@v0.7.23/  webs@v0.7.44/
go-sqlite3@v1.2.2/  gonix@v0.1.5/  webs@v0.7.18/   webs@v0.7.30/

Let me know if you want me to tar these up and put them somewhere. If I'm slow to respond here just shoot me an email (pjs@petersanchez.com) and I'll see that much sooner.

@novalis @icy @tedu @knapjack Yea the ending totally disappointed me. I mean, I guess capitalism is to blame but it left so much unresolved. And frankly didn't make any sense. For instance, why in the world is the boss (I forgot his name already) in the building to close the window to begin with? Then what happens with the massive international army outside the building once he's killed?

Really felt like he was just looking for a way to tie off with some social message but I didn't buy it.

I liked the story as it moved (mostly) but the pay off was a total let down.

Nothing makes me skip a #YouTube video faster than a thumbnail with a "shocked" and "gaping wide open" mouth photo in it.

Is there anything more cheeseball than a graph showing a github repo's star count history in the same repo's README file?

I'm annoyed no one has told me about the show Severance until my daughter put me hip to game a week ago. I've binged the entire 2 seasons (well, 3 episodes to go) and it's one of the best show's I've seen in a long time. I have to say it's better than #Pluribus. The storytelling in the show is just amazing. I'm sad I'm almost done with the binge.

Has anyone out there spoken with @tedu? Like, is he OK? His systems have been down for over a month now.

Two emails from Jeffrey Epstein to Bill Gates show:

Gates contracted an STD and transmitted it to his wife Melinda.

Gates asked Epstein for antibiotics that he could give to his wife without her knowledge.

They are all so, so gross.
