Loving this post by Seth Godin the other day. Inspired me to sharpen some of my tools, which have been even more delightful to use since https://seths.blog/2024/09/sharp-tools/ #emacs

@howard@emacs.ch oh wow! I regularly check the play store for a decent version of Emacs for Android, but can't believe I didn't think to check FDroid. Thank you!!!
@Aphelion your poetry hits every single time ❤️

We desperately need to start a Slow Software movement. High quality, intentionally designed, low defect software done at a quarter of the pace for the same price. Because we've been destroying the mental health of developers for the last quarter century, and what do we have to show for it but a giant mess?
@HamonWry a lot of atheists I know aren't decent people at all. They've just replaced religion with social justice so they can feel morally superior while running around yelling at people (and worse)

After four and a half months and almost 34,000 stitches, I’ve finished my cross-stitch 1-bit version of Hokusai’s Great Wave. It’s big, 25”x 17” (pen in the first photo for scale). Thanks to @hypertalking for letting me use his wonderful original 1-bit art. #NerdStitch
"There’s no such thing as work life balance. There’s simply life. And you spend part of your life at work." - Seth Godin
“Entropy applies to every part of our lives. ... Understanding entropy leads to a radical change in the way we see the world. Ignorance of it is responsible for many of our biggest mistakes and failures. We cannot expect anything to stay the way we leave it. To maintain our health, relationships, careers, skills, knowledge, societies, and possessions requires never-ending effort and vigilance. Disorder is ... our default. Order is always artificial and temporary.”
