The chat history is the big one for me. It’s not even that it’s not persistent; I’d be fine if it just purged all messages after a set period. The problem is that it seems to selectively purge some messages but keep others. Makes me feel like I’m crazy when I go back and try to find something that I know I sent a while ago, but there’s just a gap.

These aren’t exactly exploration games, but they’re simple games that my toddler likes too:

• Animal Crossing is easily her favorite. She loves “helping” my wife pick outfits and fish.
• A Building Full of Cats is short, cheap, and cute. She likes making up stories about each apartment and cat. There’s also tons of similar games in different locations.
• Cats in Time has simple puzzles that she can do with a bit of help.
• Slime Rancher might be a good fit. It’s simple and cute with a focus on exploration.
• Dorf Romantik is a relaxing and cute game that’s a good introduction to resource management. She might not be good at the actual goal of the game, but she likes placing tiles.
• Subnautica in creative mode might be interesting for exploration, depending on how sensitive your kid is about some of the darker areas and creatures.

I wasn’t trying to imply that Typst is a replacement for LaTeX. I’m more trying to say that I’m hoping Typst (and any other typesetting alternatives that might be out there) mature enough over the next year or two to become full replacements. It just doesn’t seem to be gaining much attention because of how dominant LaTeX is.

The main part that’s not open source is their web client, which I’m fine with. There’s a number of people on GitHub that aren’t happy about it though.

I’ve been using Typst. Its (mostly) open source and much simpler than LaTeX. It’s still very new though, so it doesn’t have all of LaTeX’s features, but it’s making very steady progress.

I mean more that LaTeX’s syntax and compilation methods are outdated. I’ve tried to grok LaTeX many times, but the most I’ve ever been able to do is make small modifications to existing templates. I’ve never been able to make a brand new project work. I’m really hoping that modern alternatives like Typst become more common. There just don’t seem to be many out there because of how dominant LaTeX is.

I thought I knew everything about Excel, but just last week I learned that it now has TypeScript integration for macros. I nearly wept tears of joy. Finally I can leave behind VBA.

Please forget LaTeX. Please let us adopt a more modern alternative that isn’t absolutely painful to use.

Every job will have some sort of crunch time. Even just staying in a programming position, the definition of “crunch time” will vary wildly. I’m lucky enough that “crunch time” just means that I set aside all my other tasks until I fix whatever is on fire, but I still get to go home on time unless I really want the overtime pay.

I don’t envy positions with forced 80-hour workweek crunch times. That’s a sign of bad management.

Because I am addicted to solving puzzles.

Bluey.

Tuition is $40,000 a year. Price said about 75% of their students are on some form of financial aid.

How large is the Unification Church? I thought they were a pretty big organization.

Also, this paragraph is hilarious:

The Unification Church, meanwhile, has claimed that engaging in activities that violate Japan’s civil law should not be considered grounds for ordering its dissolution and that the government’s questioning of the group is illegal.

That looks great! How did you get that style? Is that a LORA or just an artist token?

A couple dozen devices maybe. I don’t really need dedicated ranges, but it’s nice to know exactly which device I’m looking at just by the IP when reading logs.

I know they exist and vaguely what they do, but I don’t know how to set them up. What’s their advantage over simple DHCP reservations for a small client list?

I like the range for new devices- hadn’t thought of that!

Though Castlevania: Lords of Shadow was a divisive game, its art direction and soundtrack are incredible. Oscar Araujo’s score combined with some great vistas and setpieces elevates the mediocre gameplay to actually make this game one of my favorites.

I also loved the songs from Death Stranding. Low Roar’s tracks fit the atmosphere of the game perfectly, and the few tracks from other artists really stand out in a nice contrast to Low Roar’s calmer feeling.

That should be easy enough to do with a cron job. What OS is your seedbox running?
