Canada friends:
Do you have any thoughts on J. J. McCullough?

I’ve watched his videos on YouTube & Nebula, but I wanted some more insight from Actual Canadians.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Also, to be clear, it's okay to treat computing related jobs as just-a-paycheck! Not everyone has to be an ivory tower snooty-snoot (and TBH I'm not even that type of "computer scientist", the real PL enthusiasts run rings around me).

I just really, really don't like having my own ability to […]

Dear #django
Every time you refresh the page with DSF Board Candidates, the candidates’ order shuffles.

So, if you haven't fully reviewed 19 people at once, you have to re-sort them in your mind. Over. And. Over. And web pages get refreshed A LOT.

Ok SFO, how do you all have TWO non-PBS-affiliated public television stations?

Anyway, one of them plays a LOT of KPop, and there's also a station with a lot of Chinese language news and programming so I guess I live here now.

@CodenameTim I think I have thoughts on the Claude/commits question you asked on @kjaymiller’s streak with @webology. But now I’m sorting S. SanFran. Remind me later.

On my way to SFO. I of course got my Obligatory Airline Stroopwafel. And took a picture for @mahryekuh, as is required by Dutch law.🤪
