Soothing my toddler with Crab Rave is not what I had on my parenting bingo card.

From the Simpson, bart is pressing a button on an animatronic bear similar to Smokey Bear: “Only who can prevent forest fires? You have selected “you”, referring to me. That is incorrect. The correct answer is you.”
Whenever I’m doing a git rebase and have to figure out what “current” vs “incoming” means

GitHub needs way more emojis in their emoji picker!
Slack is down. How did people refine macrodata before this??

Hey there, we miss you 1m ago Are you still pressing buttons on your appliance? Discover your smart home and start controlling it the easy way.
Bosch has been sending these thirsty notifs and I can’t figure out why
A small benefit to keeping the default bsky.social handle: typing it directly into a browser takes you right to the bluesky profile.
A hastily-photoshopped image of the macOS settings shortcuts from the toolbar, showing a crudely-drawn Banana button underneath the Focus mode button, and next to the Wifi/bluetooth/airdrop settings. The banana button is unselected.
Found the reason. Banana mode was enabled, duh.
macOS background that is pure yellow.

Mole from Frog and Toad TV show saying “Woe, I say, woe”
Did not expect this crossover nod between two AppleTV+ series
Screenshot of an iOS Home Screen notification from the AppleTV app indicating that a new episode of Severence is available.
The AppleTV app really needs to incorporate if you’ve already watched the latest episode before sending a push notification. Also, that was a great episode of Severence.
Frog & Toad on AppleTV+ is super calming for kids. Also recommend he read-along books via Hoopla & your local library login. Also, Toad is a vibe.
I did see a separate moon service, curious on the differences.
But I guess the moon is quite dependent on the sun IRL, so that makes sense.
HomeAssistant seems to come preconfigured with a dedicated service for the Sun. No love for default installing the moon? How will people know they can toggle their lights when it’s a waxing gibbous??
Ohhh, new Severance department name revealed in S2E3.
^this. been trying it for threads/mastodon/bluesky, works well

I *just* noticed that bluesky favicon & formatting seems to be supported on GitHub profiles, but not threads.
If I don’t get all my performance reviews done before the deadline, this video is why.
I really, really don't want to do this, but let's do a bit (just a LITTLE BIT) of fact checking about what Zuck said on the Joe Rogan podcast, because this is something I not only followed closely, but also spent time *talking to the actual people at Meta who dealt with this* which WAS NOT ZUCK.
Welp, garage torsion spring just broke. Definitely not messing with that…
Jeff Atwood steps up to be a thing that’s sorely needed in tech right now: a leader. He actually *gives* half of his current net worth (not a pledge — he already cut checks) to 8 organizations helping the most vulnerable. blog.codinghorror.com/stay-gold-am... An inspiring move, when it most matters.
THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.
It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.
After looking up the answer, that's what I'm currently guessing. I've actually never seen this happen before! It does make me want to go back and see how often this has happened.
Didn’t know about the Japanese “space out” competition

We decided to keep them home this week after a thanksgiving bout with something nasty, hoping this helps with the holiday break…
