I forgot about this little website "app" I wrote a few years ago to play with javascript. Does what it says on the tin, but it requires that you either allow access to your browser's location API, or to a service commonly blocked by adblockers (in easylist) so just be aware of that.

@shivian It feels like a very simplistic question but I guess you gotta start somewhere

@shivian The survey "measured gender expression by asking every surveyed adolescent one question about how people at school viewed their physical
expression of femininity and masculinity.

A person’s appearance, style, dress, or the way they walk or talk may affect how people describe them. How do you think other people at school would describe you?
• Very feminine
• Mostly feminine
• Equally feminine & masculine
• Mostly masculine
• Very masculine"

@InspectorCaracal As for how Python's DB API handles query parameters, ugh, they allowed each database to make its own choice. Using "?" is one valid choice, and sqlite chose that one. But some other implementation might choose another :(

>>> sqlite3.paramstyle
'qmark'

@InspectorCaracal syntactically it looks like there's a comma missing before (table, cat)

.. and writing documentation about how you hope the hard part will even work.

TFW instead of getting started on the hard part of a project, you spend all day rebasing some trivial changes. #git #programming

@smj circa 1998 I got a 3B2 at some hardware auction but I wasn't persistent enough to get it booting. I still ❤ vintage stuff like this, and miss the days when you started a graphical session rarely or at all.

I rescued Peach on day 3. I spent some more time collecting moons, but ... I think I'm bored? #switch #mario #marioodyssey

@phooky at a minimum, let us demand gender octal. Or maybe a base-60 system.

Rosemary Kirstein's second novel, The Outskirter's Secret, is out in paperback. I read it in ebook form a few years ago.

http://www.rosemarykirstein.com/2017/12/outskirter-paperback-is-live/

If you haven't read the series, pick it up from book 1 in your format of choice. If you have, but you like having physical artifacts on bookshelves, pick up the new edition.

Whet your appetite with the opening chaper of her books: http://www.rosemarykirstein.com/free-reads/

I took the plunge and ordered a nintendo switch. I hope BotW is as good as everybody says!
