I've done enough test batches on the new sample roaster at this point that it's become clear that I want to adapt a program that I've been working on to do some of the work involved in designing roasting plans outside of their app and then get the data I need to efficiently copy in what I want.

I wasn't really looking for new features to add to that program, but I guess another use case that it covers at launch might be good for getting people to try it out.

@mwlucas I always felt like this adequately described the difference beginners and experts. We all make mistakes and achieve the same outcome; The difference is the tricks you've learned along the way. :flan_thumbs:

nerd shit; self-hosting source control 

@gcupc@glitch.social Another haven't used SourceHut but have found Gitea very easy both on the initial setup and to upgrade to new releases (upgrading is literally just replace one file). Not in docker in my case.

Depending on your feature needs (as in, if you don't need features) you could also just do straight up git without any web stuff around it, in which case your distro probably handles the updates with the rest of the system.

I have projects set up both ways.

@taweret Wikipedia is showing all the episodes. When the show was first licensed for the US it was just the first 13 episodes that got picked up. They skipped to the movie after that and it must have been a long time before anybody went back and licensed the rest of it.

@taweret Yes, Utena had a 2nd season. I have fansubs of it on VHS.

sometimes you have a problem and think "I know, I'll use regular expressions", and now you've rolled it out worldwide and the CPUs are spiking everywhere and the internet is on fire oh god oh no blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare

Do you think anybody involved with that let me google that for you website gets phone calls from people asking them to google something for them?

@Excuse_haver @taweret I have a sister who used to work for ask.com. She's not sure how people got her number, but she regularly answered phone calls from people who wanted to speak with Jeeves.

Saved 81 cents on today's shopping trip because the person ahead of me had 81 cents left over on a gift card and decided he'd rather just hand that off to me instead of needing to keep track of it for a future visit.

At my shop if someone has less than a dollar left on a gift certificate I'll usually just ask them if they want the left over back as change rather than need to deal with it again on their next visit.

From the PostgreSQL manual:

"The first century starts at 0001-01-01 00:00:00 AD, although they did not know it at the time. This definition applies to all Gregorian calendar countries. There is no century number 0, you go from -1 century to 1 century. If you disagree with this, please write your complaint to: Pope, Cathedral Saint-Peter of Roma, Vatican."

Amazon does this thing where they split the video royalty payments up into multiple regions and they each pay out separately. The terms when I was signing up for that suggested that there's a payment threshold, but they've never stuck to that so some months I get up to four separate deposits for as little as 1 cent. I'm kind of amazed they don't at least merge those into a single payment.
