5yo: “Do I have a toonie?” They want to donate the money to Terry Fox🫶 They even want to do house choirs so they can donate more in the future😭 Impressive! Have I thought like this when I was 5!? Then they continued, “And when I get bigger, I will buy a net and catch a fish and feed it to eagles.”

10数年前もこんな感じだった気が。バグ管理は紙ではなかったけども。拝承。

Hajime Fujita @hfujita.bsky.social · Sep 7

2x年前の出来事とはいえ、
「バージョン管理は毎日共有ディレクトリ上にsrc.yyyymmddというディレクトリをコピーすることで実現」
「バグ管理はバグ担当氏が紙のバグ管理帳を持ってるのでそれに記入」
みたいな環境で働いたのはむしろ自慢すべき体験な気がしてきたな。

Hello! My friends at Proxxi proxxi.co are still looking for a full stack software tech lead to partner with the hardware & embedded systems focused CTO.

This is a software job at a hardware / wearable company.

Based in Vancouver, in office to play with hardware + flexible WFH

Screenshot of the PROXXI home page - it's a wearable that detects electricity plus software around it for tracking electrical field strength and other worker safety.

正直これは知らなかったですけど、私の買ったモデルは旧型なので対象外みたいですね。UXは良くないですがGoogle Photosみたいなモバイルアプリがあったりと便利そうなので、ベンダーロックインがあったとしてもトレードオフとして許せる範囲かなと思ってます。

Drive up north for about 4 hours, ring the buzz, help us with bedtime, and we can play it with zero network latency (and can maintain friendship) 😉

Being able to identify hoaxes, avoid scams & debunk propaganda is a civic skill required in today's information society. That's why curriculum of students in Finland includes media literacy lessons, aimed at safeguarding a precious resource: the truth.

“Some energy is wasted at nearly every exchange through imperfect insulation materials and long cables in between racks of servers, and many buildings use millions of gallons of water (often fresh, potable water) per day in their cooling operations.”

Appreciate the option leaning about upsides of AI at #webSummitVancouver, and also of the environmental impact of AI. Reading:
www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/20/1...

We did the math on AI’s energy footprint. Here’s the story you haven’t heard.

The emissions from individual AI text, image, and video queries seem small—until you add up what the industry isn’t tracking and consider where it’s heading next.
