Gratz to Nushell on v0.100.0! I make sure it’s available on all my devices, whether Linux, macOS, or Windows.
Key feature of 0.100.0 for me would be the improved URL manipulation.

PyPIM—a combination of the abbreviation for Python and the acronym for Processing-in-Memory
wat
perform processing operations directly in memory, bypassing the CPU.
wat
These programs are collections of read and write operations taking place in the computer’s memory, and computational operations performed by the processor. The units of information stored in the memory have addresses that enable software to locate and transfer them to the CPU for processing.
ow my brain
Software package can bypass CPU for more efficient computing

Barry: no, where’s the good keyboard? The one I nap on?

I can tell my mom “I’m in machete mode” and she gets it, because she remembers the summer I cleared the blackberries out of our backyard and just kept going until I’d covered half the block, revealing fences and property lines that had only existed in the abstract for decades.

@pho4cexa I definitely need to speak up more when i see it.

@IamMrsGeek I gotta step up sometimes

@m Routinely. Also accidentally closing a window with C-w Also also, I use the abbreviations for split and explore functionality. So in addition to :w, folks see, :Tex, :Hex, and of course :Sex

@nomad I kept it tidy during my tenure through the magic of extreme violence. And sometimes fire.
A few years after we’d moved out, drove past and saw the blackberries had reclaimed about half their territory. You could still see the fence, but not the other side of the block.

@blogdiva I understand why the granularity’s helpful. I just use one bucket since they’re all basically the same guy, however much the details vary.

@mdhughes saw a “classic alternative” playlist the other day and just lingered on “classic”
did not want to be reminded that “Smells Like Teen Spirit” is twice as far from us as it is from “Fly Like an Eagle”

I enjoy poking at Docker containers via an API.

@kroyio I mean it’s on the list. They don’t whisper “Kubernetes” so much as shout it at this shop.

@farah started new med mix for ADHD (technically last night), got annoyed rather than excessively self-flagellating during a stressful meeting (progress on the tendency to identify myself as the cause of all my problems), and I’m getting some good code written.

Been five years since I used Make regularly.
I keep reaching for Justfile features, and assuming Justfile behavior. Latest incident: “Why the heck doesn’t set dotenv-load work?”

okay but when you say “table stakes” I just think “vampire furniture”

@kroyio No sorry, perhaps my original post intent was unclear. This is the first time I’ve been able to sustain interest in Docker / Kubernetes / containerization-in-general for more than five minutes.
It’s a happy post, and implies a path found to maintain interest in the rest of the “throw more racks in the fire” enterprise workflow.

“EOD” is always a fraught thing to hear from someone on neurospicy time.
But to my great shock, I did get the thing done by the end of (my) day.

@genehack and aren’t most tech businesses 24/7 after all?
