QOTD: An action being "punishable by fine" basically means "legal for rich people".
happily, this seems to have been something wrong with the socat processes running inside the containers. changed one of them to an nginx container, and everything Just Worked. kinda annoyed, but not enough to really spend any time root causing this. going to just take the win.
trying to figure out how to tell a docker container from compose A to communicate with a container from compose B. set up a simplified set of compose files with containers running socat to try and figure things out.
now, of course, i can't even talk to a single container in one of those composes from the host. and am wondering if anything will ever work ever.
Here's the Santa Rosa Press Democrat's lukewarm take on the closure of the Mendocino Brewing Company and its tap room:

Rather disappointingly, the article does not explore how large the owner has been living while a fugitive from justice.

am i just missing something, or is there no way to have two "home" columns #onhere? some folks i follow tend to boost a lot, and it drowns out most everyone else in that column. looking to set up "home with boosts" and "home without boosts" columns, but can't figure it out.
@varx Rust, C, C++, Lua, Python, java, javascript
AI, server-stuff (backend), web-stuff / client stuff (frontend), operations (running servers / maintenance / upkeep / setting up / fixing / etc etc etc), network code, game engine...
I'm a jane of all trades.
When it comes to location, I can only work remote unless the work is in the Seattle area. Not really interested in moving away from the pacific northwest.
why why why why WHY does python's argparse.error exit with a status code of 2? WHY?!
my sense of unix aesthetics is going to force me to basically reimplement that method just to get the correct exit code.
Hey so, there's been a bit of a kerfuffle with Patreon lately after a terms of service change that threatens all sex workers
There's now an open letter to Patreon to please not do that http://www.openlettertopatreon.com/
The idea of folks losing their livelihood overnight for reasons I cannot see as justified is terrifying, and there's no Patreon alternative either.
Okay, repeat of yesterday. Any one know of a company looking to hire a Junior Dev without degree that will allow remote work?
what's the scrappy open source alternative nosql db that actually needs users/support/tutorials now that mongodb has gone IPO? https://www.cnbc.com/2017/10/19/mongodb-mdb-ipo-stock-price-on-first-trading-day.html (to be clear, I like mongodb and have friends that work there and would continue to suggest it to clients, but I'd rather spend my own time supporting smaller, more radical, less cash-rich projects)
slogged through finishing up some new cli stuff i'd been working on last night, and realized on waking all the ways i'd designed it wrong.
round 2 today, and i'm very glad to be in a place where i know i can take the time to fix it.
No, Duolingo, I will not call a potato an Erdäpfel, no matter how many times you insist. It's a Kartoffel, and it will always be a Kartoffel, and you can go to hell.
Seriously, Julian Richings as Death is the very best of the Supernatural guest stars. And that's saying something.
I'll believe they're serious when I see results, but tell me again that boycotting the bird site isn't going to accomplish anything.

Anybody looking to hire a remote webdev?
I can do React/Redux, Angular, jQuery, Node with Express, Python with Django and Flask, PHP with a LOT of frameworks, Java, and a whole bunch of build systems, test suites, database providers, and CMSes. I've been writing CSS since it was brand new.
I've also worked as a Section 508/WCAG compliance reviewer, as well as developed mobile and desktop thin-client apps in web languages.
Just drop me a PM if you have a gig or a position to fill. #hireme
A lot of people are missing the point of the twitter boycott. Ok heres how twitter works, they sell your data to advertisers for money, any interactions, good or bad are data they can sell.
All that harassment women get? That makes them money. All the call outs, all the toxic shit, all the fights with bad people? Makes them money.
They have a vested interest in creating engagement and nothing does that better than anger. They keep the bad people around because they know you will fight them. Thats data, they can sell that and then market to people just like you.
While they market to the people who want to abuse you too.
*not using twitter* is literally the only way to hurt them.
That thing where I hit escape to exit edit mode in a browser text area that is not vim
I should throw this out there - are you good with buildsystems? Do you want to work with me? My team is hiring!
