I was laid off recently so I'm looking for a new job!

I have a decade of experience as a web backend dev writing APIs in Python and Ruby in a variety of frameworks. I'm usually the git and Postgres expert on the team, and if you leave me alone I'll start writing tests and doing security updates. Used to help run PyLadies Vancouver, now PyCascades.

The video captures a sequence of events featuring a person driving a blue golf cart in a suburban neighborhood. The individual, dressed in a light blue top and dark shorts, is seen operating the cart on a residential street lined with houses, trees, and a clear sky. The cart is equipped with a beige canopy and an orange flag attached to the back. The person is initially seated in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel, and appears to be navigating the cart. As the video progresses, the person exits the cart and begins to interact with it, possibly adjusting or inspecting something. The timestamp on the video indicates the events occur on July 28, 2023, at 20:31:42 CDT, with the video timestamp updating to 20:31:54 CDT as the person continues their actions. The video concludes with the person standing beside the cart, seemingly preparing to get back in.

The video features a black and white cat in a living room, responding to a command with excitement, as indicated by its wagging tail and attentive posture. The text overlay reads, "When you teach your cat a few words and you say her favorite one." The cat moves towards the camera, displaying a range of behaviors from sitting to standing, with its tail raised and ears perked up, suggesting it is engaged and possibly excited. The scene transitions to a different cat, a tabby with a white patch on its chest, standing on a bed and meowing, with the text overlay, "Yessssssssss!!!" The final scene shows a kitten walking down a hallway, with the text overlay, "POV your kitten finally knows her name is Clover," accompanied by a clover emoji. The video captures the playful and affectionate interactions between the cats and their owner, highlighting the bond and communication between them.

Lehrerkrise in Salzburg: Schönreden statt Lösungen exxpress.at/politik/lehrerkris… Während am Montag rund 75.000 Schüler in Salzburg wieder die Klassenzimmer füllen, herrscht hinter den Kulissen weiter Personalmangel. Offiziell gibt sich die Landesregierung gelassen – doch Lehrervertreter zeichnen ein ganz anderes Bild. Viele Pädagogen wollen sich den Belastungen nicht mehr aussetzen und suchen lieber das Weite. #news #press

The video begins with a view from a moving vehicle on a highway, under an overcast sky with a cloudy atmosphere. The road is divided by a yellow line, with trees on the left and a field on the right. A black car is visible in the distance, moving in the same direction. The text '[@]smotrinetupi' is visible at the top of the frames, indicating the source of the video. As the vehicle continues, the black car moves closer, and a white truck appears in the opposite lane. Suddenly, the white truck explodes, sending debris flying and creating a large cloud of smoke. A person is seen running away from the explosion. The aftermath shows the truck heavily damaged, with debris scattered across the road. The video concludes with the highway returning to a calmer state, with the white truck still visible and the road mostly clear, except for the scattered debris.

in reply to buttplug.io 🍑🔌

Quick look over Silksong w/ ILSpy shows... pretty much HK again internally? Looks like the basic structure (PlayerData, HeroController, etc) from the HK api is still there. Might be able to cobble together pieces of the HK Modding API into something workable for now.

The video features a sleek, white sports car with a distinctive design, including a red interior and a side mirror with a small emblem. The car is shown in motion at night, with its black wheels and red brake calipers prominently visible. The camera captures the car from various angles, highlighting its aerodynamic shape and the illuminated headlights. The text '[@]smotrinetupi' is visible at the top of the frames, indicating the source or creator of the video.

As the video progresses, the focus shifts to the front of the car, showcasing its aggressive design and the illuminated headlights. The text 'CGAIX' appears at the bottom of the frames, possibly indicating a location or event. The car continues to move, and a bus with the number '132' and red text on its display becomes visible in the background, suggesting the car is on a road at night.

The video concludes with the car passing the bus, emphasizing the contrast between the high-performance sports car and the public transportation vehicle. The text '[@]smotrinetupi' remains visible throughout, maintaining the source attribution.

No-one will be surprised that Nadine Dorries has left the Tories to join ReformUK... my guess is we'll be seeing a lot more of this as Farage demonstrates he has the ears of the press in the way that Kemi Badenoch does not....

In this sense the 'split' on the Right may heal itself (at the cost of the remaining 'coherence' of the Tory party).

As the Right consolidates in & around Reform, the Left needs to get its act together & perhaps Polanski's Greens can be the catalyst for that?

I'm wondering if that would leave a one -nation Tory party? And whether such an entity might eat some vote share from Labour's right ...?I

Early days for Polanski, but I have certainly been very impressed by what I've heard from him so far. His communication skills are amazing.

"Sound of a Million Insects, Light of a Thousand Stars"
directed by Tomonari Nishikawa.

"I buried a 100-foot (about 30 meters) 35mm negative film under fallen leaves alongside a country road, which was about 25 km away from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, for about 6 hours, from the sunset of June 24, 2014, to the sunrise of the following day. The night was beautiful with a starry sky, and numerous summer insects were singing loud. The area was once an evacuation zone, but now people live there after the removal of the contaminated soil. This film was exposed to the possible remaining of the radioactive materials."

Veo que en el último vídeo de Greta lleva un colgante que yo llevaba de joven. Un colgante negro con una pluma metálica. Evidentemente comprado en un puesto de la feria, por quien me toma usted !

Creo que lo pillé en un puesto en el que vendían camisetas de los Ramones, 2pac, etc ... y lo llevé hasta desgastarlo durante años. Era el colgante de batalla.

This is one of the reasons I roll my own game engines. It’s more work, yes, but I’m not spending my time keeping up with ever changing APIs, or worrying about version upgrades a company is foisting on me.

It’s also why I love doing coding on vintage systems for fun. Or arduino projects, etc.
hachyderm.io/@thomasfuchs/1151…


IMO the reason why people yearn for tools that generate code is that programming is broken—everything now is giant layer cakes of huge, complex and intransparent frameworks designed by and for large teams in giant tech companies.

The same tech companies that flooded programming with overly complex tools, endless toolchains, new programming languages du jour every few years, required backwards-compatibility breaking updates and mandatory design overhauls are now selling you “AI” to generate code for the mess they made.


in reply to Elissa

Yup. I'd much rather write assembly for an 8080 than whatever bizarre framework is being used at Modern Tech Company™
in reply to Elissa

The other side of it is not settling even if it means FAILURE. I had a thought to make a silly web incremental a while back, got stuck bootstrapping because I couldn't find any good end-to-end instructions for getting it off the ground without using big frameworks (I've since found some, but the moment has passed), so I just dropped it instead of settling for the frameworks. I know that would ruin the fun so I just... didn't.


Suck on this.

Harlequin (1992), a 2D platformer for the Commodore Amiga.

You play a harlequin—naturally—wandering through the surreal land of Chimerica, firing hearts instead of bullets. Only love can neutralize these bizarre enemies, which already makes it stand out from the glut of mascot platformers of the early ’90s.

Thing is, Harlequin isn’t just a straight run-and-jump game. You flip switches that change entire levels, then backtrack to see how the world has transformed. One moment you’re bouncing through “Cutesy Land” (a cheeky Mario spoof), the next you’re scaling clocktowers, hopping across organ pipes that play real notes under your feet, or drifting into “Hellzapoppin.” The design is eccentric, and deliberately so.

And yes—the Amiga shows off here. Smooth eight-way scrolling, vibrant pixel art, and the kind of big, weird level themes that the ST port could barely keep up with. Barry Leitch’s soundtrack is the real hook, though—lush, melodic, and far more memorable than the sparse sound effects. On a stock 512K Amiga you even had to choose between loading music or SFX because it couldn’t handle both at once.

Despite glowing reviews at the time (ACE gave it 900/1000, Amiga Power 91%), it never made it to console. A Mega Drive version was in the works, rebranded as Madness: House of Fun, but it got canned. Today the only “modern” way to play it is on Antstream or via a WHDLoad install on real hardware. And that’s a shame, because this is easily one of the best platformers of the 16-bit era—quirky, clever, and criminally overlooked.
