@thomasfuchs how do I delete my vote?

Today in Labor History March 25, 1811: Oxford University expelled Percy Bysshe Shelley for publishing the pamphlet The Necessity of Atheism. Shelley was an English Romantic poet, radical in both his art and his politics. His poem "The Mask of Anarchy," which he wrote in 1819 after the Peterloo Massacre, is one of the first modern descriptions of nonviolent resistance. His admirers included Karl Marx, Gandhi and George Bernard Shaw. He was married to Mary Shelley, author of “Frankenstein.”

I’m def in the 11-25 bracket

Note: This does not pipe to curl. But it is very much equivalent in terms of safety and convenience. If you know you know.

I did something kind of funky that should work well.

My library Entrace makes Erlang tracing nice. But you don't have it installed and suddenly you need it.

Hot code updates to the rescue. One single-module version but the spicy one is the hot code update version that just lets you curl to shell in your iex prompt to get that sweet tracing functionality:

@TheBreadmonkey Honestly, I'd watch that Tron movie!

@ramsey Google is the only company that can capitalize over this, for now.

Every day there's a new headline about the unemployment crisis in the UK. I tend to try and steer clear of posting negative stuff, but am still a bit off from someone responding to my post yesterday (highlighting the role of Ai in all of this) to tell me I'm wrong, that Ai isn't a significant issue, and that people just aren't trying hard enough to speak to hiring managers. I recognise there are other factors (which I also spoke about in the thread), but strongly believe Ai plays a significant role in the 1.7 million people actively seeking employment in the UK but unable to find anything, despite there being 721000 unfilled job vacancies. Sharing this because, whilst it's a bit frightening, it's also a bit validating for people who find themselves in this position.

My test mastodon instance has been upgraded to v4.5.8, easy peasy.

:batman: Stop Services
:batman: ProxMox Snapshot
:batman: Fetch 4.5.8
:batman: Build
:batman: Start Services

Now that I say it was easy I have cursed myself tho.

Also I hate that I can't use checkbox emojis now because it looks like AI wrote the post. Batman it is.

@eloy patents are evil because you don't need to do anything

@eloy good take. this is advertising for google

Regularly, I use the following for near-realtime communications ("text messages”).

- SMS/RCS/iMessage (friends, family)
- Facebook Messenger (friends, family)
- What's App (friends)
- ActivityPub/Mastodon (friends)
- Matrix (friends, work)
- Discord (work)
- Mattermost (friends, locals)

I'm sure I'm missing some.

The fact that no one is allowed to make a single piece of software (for wide distribution) that talks on all of these systems is the kind of garbage @pluralistic often talks about.

So vermeiden wir bei uns bugs in der Softwareentwicklung uuuund sparen ein ganzes QA Team: ich sage den entwickler*innen, sie sollten die Fehler weglassen
