Thank you. I love using duckdb and frequently query directly from zstd compressed files (and write out new ones). They’re easy to inspect using visidata and make outer use of. I found the talk interesting and enjoyable.

Sadly, Microsoft 365 is not “pixel perfect” compared to word. I often run into headaches where line numbers are different between the two and content ends up on different pages.

If Microsoft can’t get consistent rendering of word docs between Word for Windows, Word for macOS and Office 365, I don’t like anyone else’s chances.

I agree with you on the Casio fx-115ES Plus 2nd Edition. I picked one up two years ago for $11.41. It naturally writes out equations, has a backspace and is generally excellent. I still love my HP RPN calculators, but the fx-115ES works nicely for anyone who isn't using RPN or sympy.

I’ve spent many hours using Basilisk II.

It reminds me of around 2002 when Microsoft named everything ".net".

iOS seems to mute the web audio apis when the phone is in silent mode (the switch on the side of the phone). If you toggle it on, then this site (and many others) play sound.

I have no idea why it works this way and it’s frequently annoying.

That .zig-cache seems massive to me. I keep mine on a tmpfs and remove it every time the tmpfs is full.

Do you see any major problems when you remove your .zig-cache and start over?

How do you update the software in the containers when new versions come out or vulnerabilities are actively being exploited?

My understanding is that when using containers updating is an ordeal and you avoid the need my never exposing the services to the internet.

Thank you! I’ll have to take a look.

Thank you for the description of CBC.

I'm curious about it and your thinking on how to track things over time and see what has surprised us since we got started. It is useful to note down every time you (or your team) sets an expectation with someone (or another team) and then make sure you don't forget about that. It's also useful to be deliberate when setting expectations.

Having a public journal could well work for noting down when expectations are set and whenever there is a meeting of minds. I've found when tracking things like this that the amount of data can quickly grow to the point where you can no longer quickly and easily reason about it. The success seems to live and die on the data visualization or UI/UX.
