There was a question on reddit earlier:
> "Play a beep at random intervals play a beep at a random interval, the range of which can be set. For example, set it up so that a beep is played at a random time between 1 and 2 minutes, on a loop. So beep, silence for 1:27, beep, silence for 1:01, beep, silence for 1:55, beep, silence for 1:05, etc etc until you turn it off. Bonus points if it runs on linux"
This was my solution.
> " while :; do sleep $((RANDOM % 61 + 60))s && echo -e "\a"; done"

The time is fast approaching when our living room will become a total and utter chaotic mess. The builder has confirmed a start date for the chimney removal.
I've just booked a Bulky waste collection from the council: one of our 2 sofas is in no condition to continue living, so they're taking it away next Friday.
It amused me greatly that I am now on step 6 of a 5-step process, with an accompanying progress bar at 120%. Obviously whoever designed the web interface didn't account for the thank you page post-booking.
Gotta love a fencepost problem.
Card provider was really slow, too. Made the flow feel like something from the 90's.
Nicely done, MHDC good to see our money being spent well.
I can't grumble really, they're very good as local authorities go.

I'm still miffed the ADA URL parser people keep their biased and misleading performance comparison against curl on their front page.
Their parser is not 10 times faster than curl and yet their main graph makes it look like that.
WHATWG Compliant URL parser written with focus on compliance, performance and security across multiple platforms and languages.Ada URL
They don't seem to show the version of curl, at least I couldn't see it on that page.
But this brings up a more general point that I've thought about before: ideally benchmarks between implementations should be done by independent parties, or at least peer-reviewed by all parties, but that's quite rare. I've been wanting to have something like that for my backup implementation work, from time to time.

i really need to go tap the "stop offering solutions before understanding what it means that most maintainers are hobbyists" once again.
"We can pay them a speaking fee for a zoom call". Sure. When in my schedule.
Just. Sighs
yeah. Plus it eats into the time. Just.
People feel so clever when they ignore the perspective of the other side
omg the "if maintainers were more professional and created corporate ways for us to pay them we would" shits me to tears.
Now they want to put the administrative burden of funding open source onto the maintainers instead of working that out for themselves.
We did it: DE 🇩🇪 LU 🇱🇺 & SK 🇸🇰 just decided to oppose Chat Control! 🥳
Thanks everyone for your help and keep fighting the good fight. 🫶
Chat Control will not get a majority - at least not today.

#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A teen (14?) has just lifted her friend into her arms and is twirling her around.
Her friend's head is thrown back in laughter that rings up and down the street, her long hair flying.
Totally caught up in a fleeting moment.
This is happiness.
A woman (60s?) pulls over at the side of a quiet street and calls to a friend who's walking, "Want a ride up town? I'm goin' that way."
Her friend replies: "No thanks! I love looking at the gardens. They're bloody stunning this time of year!"
A woman (40s?) says to a friend: "I never know what's going on, but Mum does. She's like the local newspaper, radio station and Facebook all in one! Whenever I want to know something, I just ask her."
Her friend laughs: "Can I borrow her? All mine does is tell me she hates my curtains."
A teen (13?) approaches a neighbour while cradling a huge ginger cat.
Teen asks: "This cat yours? He keeps coming into our house and stealing our food. We don't mind. I like him. But he could probably go on a diet eh."
Fat Cat gives them "I've eaten all the breakfasts" love eyes.
A young human (8?) is sitting cross legged in the middle of her front lawn with a big white rabbit sitting on her lap. She's picking flowers, offering them to Big Bun who seems to approve.
A bumble bee buzzing nearby, unbothered by Big Bun and his plus one.

@jcape I still don't see (missing context / info). But then I have found them being related to an employer that I would disqualify on the spot via patent filings. So maybe it's a good enough reason.
