Thank science for migraine abortatives

Ich gehe ja nur wegen der wirklichen Pro-Tipps zur Physiotherapie. Zum Beispiel: "Statt dieser Duobälle fürs Faszienrollen können Sie auch einfach zwei Tennisbälle in eine Socken geben. Damit sind Sie flexibler und können den Abstand zwischen den Bällen regulieren, für das Ausrollen von Hüfte und Gluteus, am besten an der Wand, und vor allem von den Waden, am Boden."

Just wrote a fun little algorithm for iterating through all grid positions within X euclidean distance from a center, roughly in order of distance but also mostly ensuring each position yielded is at least diagonally adjacent to the previous. It's a fun problem to think about with lots of design tradeoffs and many valid solutions.
My solution requires that the origin be on the grid (I think?) and uses a bunch of caching instead of a bajillion distance checks, although I don't actually know what the memory/speed tradeoff is like or whether there are any gains at all (could be net losses, which I'm starting to wonder about more as I write this post). Thankfully I don't expect performance to be very critical here anyways, and doing the caching actually helped separate some logic in a useful way.
A fun little diversion from bigger stuff in the project and a reminder of some of the joys of programming design at a small scope. Feels kinda like mastering the local town's minigame while you're stuck on the main quest in an RPG.

Imagine you bought a ThinkPad X230 for $1200 in 2012, and in 2026 you're like "actually, this machine is still fine, I see no reason to upgrade"

Only 3 things are certain in life:
1. Death
2. Taxes
3. eBay sellers that don’t know how to pack things

Nuclear scientists and the University of Michigan want to build a massive data center in Ypsilanti Township, Michigan.
If built, the data center will, among other things, run simulations to help America build nuclear weapons.
The residents of Ypsilanti Township overwhelmingly oppose the construction of the data center
and voiced their opposition to the computer warehouse during a public board meeting on June 16.
In a show of support that’s often rare from local lead…

'We Will Fight to Our Very Last Breath:' Township Leaders Vow to Fight Nuclear AI Data Center
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and a proposed nuclear weapons AI data center in Michigan have earned the ire of community leaders.

For Pride month (and beyond) I’d love us straights to make an effort and boost queer voices and not post screenshots of or links to anything hateful.
