@debugninja@banana.dog Going to? They've always been a mess.

So it turns out that the reason I haven't been able to get farther in Bloodstained is that a patch caused the chest that was supposed to have the silver bromide to be pre-opened, which means that I can't get my picture taken, which means that I can't get a fake ID from the vampire librarian, which means I can't board the train to the next area. Options are to start over or to uninstall/reinstall and never let it get patched.

Oh, yeah! This fixed a minor (doesn't hurt anything but was a bit obnoxious to see) bug with how Qt Creator was displaying files in one of my projects.

It looks like DHL estimates they can get things from Wisconsin to the UK faster than they can get the same things from the UK to Wisconsin.

@fribbledom I'd work on projects to help people roast coffee better, same as now, but I'd spend a lot more time on it.

If I download a big file in Firefox the notification in plasma spins up a full core to 100%. Not on the latest plasmashell. Hopefully whatever causes that is fixed. It does the same thing when trying to decide which WiFi to connect to. That's got to be the least efficient throbber ever written.

Probably the nicest feature here is the use of relaxed cubic splines for (inter|extra)polation. That's a much better model for coffee roasting (and a lot of other physical processes) than what other editors support.

While this code will eventually get merged in with Typica and will work with data generated by Typica, I'd like to also keep a certain level of functionality available as a separate program so that people who don't use Typica can benefit without a lot of bloat. Some of this is useful even for people who are still on paper logging and I'm open to supporting import/export for competing programs.

Today seems to be a good day for writing programs. I've been working on a new program for handling coffee roasting data: viewing, editing, creating roasting plans, comparing plans, making educational graphics, &c.

I've been using the pieces I have for graphics in my videos, but that way of working is not nice for people who have never written a computer program.

A recent example is the graphs in this video (7:59, 30:47): https://video.typica.us/videos/watch/dd83fb76-08de-4d3a-b995-841ef3fada73

The defective coffee roaster has been picked up and is now on its way back to the manufacturer so they can fix it. It arrived broken.

Some cats ask for belly rubs and then start chewing your hand when you provide the belly rubs. My cat asks for belly rubs and then happily accepts the belly rubs (and will probably ask for more if the belly rubs stop)

@interneteh The lesbians behind the dining hall are cute. They look like they're in a good, healthy relationship.
