@cliffwade@allthingstech.socialGood morning and happy Sunday to the #Fediverse
How's your day going so far? Tell me what you've accomplished or what you hope to accomplish.
For me, I'm starting the day off my usual S'mores flavored iced coffee and just going to rest and relax. Yesterday was a very lazy day and I hope to do more of the same today.
@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.social#WordWeavers 14 March: What role does ethnicity play in your world?
My works are set in (mythical) #ancientGreece for the most part, so I try to reflect ancient attitudes on ethnicity. Three of my stories are set in Asgard, with the Greek gods Hermes and Dionysos visiting the Norse g…
@drewmcmanus@hachyderm.ioToday, more and more research shows that even one drink per day can increase your chances of developing conditions like high blood pressure and an irregular heart rhythm, both of which can lead to stroke, heart failure or other health consequences.
And alcohol’s links to cancer are clear — something the World Health Organization has been stating since 1988.

@astrojuanlu@social.juanlu.spaceHot take on everyone's favourite topic: Python packaging
The other day I explained virtual & conda environments to different people that were new to them and... it was shocking to realise how complex they are, and how used I am to that complexity.
Explaining why conda still makes sense in 2024 and when to use it and how to combine it with pip is still a pain.
If your solution to Python packaging is adding fancy colors around virtual environments... you're solvin…
@pre@boing.worldTurns out I'm not done.
Damnit. It was supposed to be just a January project.
I'm adding another app along side the Mood-log and Monolith-Face for my Pinetime running WaspOS.
The plan is tagging the time of every meal or snack or drink or toke, tracking when you take your meds, or do your exercise, or whatever. User-configured categories.
The screen divides into four so my experimental hierarchy is:
* Food / Drink / Meds / Fun
* Food
* Meal
* Snack
* Sweets
* Cheese
* Drink
* Water
* Sugar
* Caffine
* Alcohol
* Medic
* Allergy
* Pain
* Vitamin
* ??
* Other
* Cigarette
* MJ
* ???
* ???
When the app is triggered it shows the time of last-milestone for each.
The ??? are empty for now. Tempted to put like LSD and MDMA in there but I've done them so infrequently it'd be not really worth tracking.
One day in and I'm liking knowing when I last fetched a glass of water or ate a snack with confidence. Not even importing into the daily graph yet.
What should it be called? "Level Up" seemed like it might encourage alcoholism given "tracking the number of drinks you actually drink" was part of the plan.
Working title is "milestone" mostly just for the alliteration of "Mood" and "Monolith" and "Milestone".
If you had a 2x2 menu of buttons to mark time-stamps that you could program into your watch, with as much recursion into sub-menus as you needed, how would you set yours up?
@tylersticka@social.lol@… I was sharing a recent article of yours with my team and I just wanted to say how well-designed your site is, particularly the article pages. I adore the skewed headlines, the iconography (that progress indicator with the stop watch is brilliant) and the playfulness of your quotes and asides.
Have a great day! 🤘
@ralen@social.linux.pizzasometimes one sees a dream that will be remembered the whole day
sometimes these dreams deserve ecranizations lmao
consuming other's creations stimulates your own creativity
how then are humans better than AI: our creations are rearranged other's creations, just those creations might be of different kind when ai creates only in the sphere on which it was trained
how to make new contacts when you see no interest in current ones
what if i want to do nothing…
