Every time the price of Bitcoin goes to an all-time high... and, coincidentally, when it starts to dip 🤣 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBHZFYpQ6nc&pp=ygUUaWYgaSB3ZXJlIGEgcmljaCBtYW4%3D

I'd go to the GitHub conference just to snag that killer badge! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jPm_zN95FE

The Age of Reason: a period of time where everything needed to have a reason.

I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desart. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" No thing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. — Percy Shelley, "Ozymandias", 1819 edition

GM! What's the killer Nostr app for replacing Spotify? It seems nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqydhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuum9d45hxmmv9ejx2asqyzuaqt9clh0trytsrmqxfr3ha50k47azv0sqvr7qvzv6v2z36f0qg0nnuy5 is focused on video content... but who's tackling pure audio?

Uncle Bob — The Scribe’s Oath 1. I will not produce harmful code. 2. The code that I produce will always be my best work. I will not knowingly allow code that is defective either in behaviour or structure to accumulate. 3. I will produce, with each release, a quick, sure, and repeatable proof that every element of the code works as it should. 4. I will make frequent, small, releases so that I do not impede the progress of others. 5. I will fearlessly and relentlessly improve my creations at every opportunity. I will never degrade them. 6. I will do all that I can to keep the productivity of myself, and others, as high as possible. I will do nothing that decreases that productivity. 7. I will continuously ensure that others can cover for me, and that I can cover for them. 8. I will produce estimates that are honest both in magnitude and precision. I will not make promises without certainty. 9. I will never stop learning and improving my craft. GM!

GM! Hiking — "I don't like either the word or the thing. People ought to saunter in the mountains — not hike! Do you know the origin of that word 'saunter?' It's a beautiful word. Away back in the Middle Ages people used to go on pilgrimages to the Holy Land, and when people in the villages through which they passed asked where they were going, they would reply, 'A la sainte terre,' 'To the Holy Land.' And so they became known as sainte-terre-ers or saunterers. Now these mountains are our Holy Land, and we ought to saunter through them reverently, not 'hike' through them." - John Muir

A Practical Definition of [Software] Design Every application is a collection of code; the code’s arrangement is the design. Two isolated programmers, even when they share common ideas about design, can be relied upon to solve the same problem by arranging code in different ways. Design is not an assembly line where similarly trained workers construct identical widgets; it’s a studio where like-minded artists sculpt custom applications. Design is thus an art, the art of arranging code. - from Practical Object-Oriented Design - An Agile Primer Using Ruby, by Sandi Metz

GM! Great thinkin' for non-technical user-facing Nostr design: "Omacom stands for Omakase Computing. The word Omakase means "I'll leave it up to you" or "chef's choice" in Japanese. "It's the idea that most people don't actually know what they want, at least not at first. That they're better off getting something beautifully curated and integrated from someone they trust to make competent, tasteful decisions rather than suffer from the paradox of choice. "It's the same principle that Ruby on Rails was built on. "It doesn't mean there isn't room for substitutions. It doesn't mean you can't develop your own taste and opinions. It just means that when you're starting out, you don't even have to know what all the different options are to enjoy an integrated, cohesive computing experience. "Once you develop your competence and knowledge, you may well want to tinker and tailor your computing environment to your specific liking. Or not! Plenty of great programmers prefer to stick with a set of well-maintained defaults. But you always have the option. "In some ways, this is anathema to some branches of classic Linux culture. Where there's been a strong belief that everyone should know everything about all of their tools, and that they should preferably configure every last one from them from scratch. "The irony is that this atomized approach is exactly what's allowed Omacom, and Omarchy in particular, to put it all together in a delightfully integrated way! And what's allowing you to make tiny substitutions on the parts where you have a strong opinion without having to give up on the rest of the omakase menu. "Besides, the wonderful thing about Linux is that there's always another option. If you don't like my opinions, my omakase menus, you'll find a hundred other chef's catering to your liking. Isn't that great?" https://learn.omacom.io/3/omacom/76/omakase-computing
