@movq That is absolutely a regression, I agree. Luckily, my browser shows me this horizontal scrollbar all the time. So I got it fairly quickly.
Yiha, first snow of the season! Yet it was more like a light sleet, but more towards snow than rain. In the higher regions it stuck not only on the paddocks but even forest roads. We definitely noticed the white layer after sunset, the surroundings were reflecting a lot more light than all the other days ago.

@kt84 I see. I remembered that my sunglasses came with some yellow-orange tinted replacement glasses. I tried them for several hours during night time now as an experiment. Right away I noticed some tiny reflections, coming from my monitor I reckon. After wearing them for some time and lifting them up again, the screen always looked very blue. ;-) Sometimes I thought it felt a wee bit nicer, other times it just felt weird. So, not sure yet, if I like them or not. Actual blue light filtering screen glasses do work nicer, I'm sure. Tomorrow at day time I will continue this experiment.
@stigatle That means you work less in the winter times than during the summer months? ;-) How long is your typical walk?
@xuu I see. Just thought clueless copy-pasters might get the impression that this would be a good choice for production.
@stigatle Haha, I first thought you're on an airplane above the sky and taking a picture out of the window. But I guess the camera hovers just slightly above a lake or sea shore. Looking good! :-)
@kt84 Oh, not to forget My Self Reliance, a Canadian building a log cabin in the woods all by himself mostly without talking, but sprinkling all sorts of very beautiful nature and wildlife recordings into his videos. That might help to speed up your recovery process. :-) https://www.youtube.com/@MySelfReliance/videos
Thank you for your insight, @kt84! Do you recall, after roughly how much screen time did your eyes get sore without these glasses? Was it within a few minutes, an hour, multiple hours? Yeah, don't worry sending parcels over from Australia to Germany. :-)
@xuu Really sweet! Why did you pick MD5 as the example?
Does anyone have first-hand experience with blue light filter glasses for sitting in front of computer screens? I hear plenty of people swearing by them. Since I don't have any issues with screens myself (well, not that I know of so far), I cannot really believe that they would improve my screen time. But nearly all claim that they cannot go back anymore.
@prologic I read it in the German wikipedia article. Search for "currenc" in the author's internet draft:
> Argon2d uses data-dependent memory access, which makes it suitable for cryptocurrencies and proof-of-work applications with no threats from side-channel timing attacks.
>
> — https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-irtf-cfrg-argon2-03#section-1
And:
> These settings are more typical for backend servers and cryptocurrency minings. For practice we suggest the following settings:

In the wikipedia article I read it more like a recommendation, but the original sounds in fact not *that* bad. Still, to me, that is not confidence-inspiring. I did not read the entire article, just quoted out of context. :-)*
@prologic Never heard of that one. The recommendation to use parts of this familiy in crypto currencies makes me a bit suspicious, though.
@mckinley It's just rendered left to right in tt. Without @movq's screenshot I would have been lost as what you wanted to tell us.
@abucci At first I thought you for sure are going to name Acca Dacca, Midnight Oil or Men At Work. :-D I Only knew the Bee Gees.
@eaplmx With a second pair of socks, work boots this time and a little thicker jacket it wasn't so bad anymore riding my bike to the market again. Quite alright actually. 1°C at the moment.

@prologic You upholsterer loves your dog, though.
3°C on the thermometer today, but with the icy wind it feels subzero. Brrr. I don't go out again until just the scout xmas market gets dismantled.

@movq @prologic I only used sed(1) over all those years so far. And about 99.9% the substitute command alone. Gotta have a look at its brother.
As written, it really wasn't too bad at all, @prologic. Being in motion also helps. ;-) Oh yes, @justamoment. This time the foggy morning extended to the evening and even into this morning now. :-D And will probably continue a few more days.
Surprise rain all day long, so the birds weren't around. Armed with rain trousers and rain jackets we went on a drizzle hike this afternoon. It was very nice. The 4°C didn't feel that cold at all. More like 10°C. The plastic layer made for a good greenhouse. I had to strip my gloves and beanie a few minutes into the walk.
Fog
@stigatle Woah, crazy! The landscape looks like a miniature land again. :-D Very gray here for days. Haven't seen colorful morning or evening skys this week.
Camera placed on tripod to record the titmice and produced only almost empty videos. As soon as the battery was empty, they all came out again. Obviously!
Eurasian blue tit
Trying again tomorrow.
@movq Ah! Schlampige Arbeit, gleich mal Geld zurückverlangen. :-P
@axodys Wow, that's a lot. Never experienced that much around here. Only in the alps. With the climate change we have less and less snow each year. Last season there were maybe five days where snow actually settled. Definitely less than ten days. Decades ago we had several weeks of snow. So enjoy it while you still have it around. It'll probably be a thing of the past before you know it. Yeah, currently it feels like a burden, I know. Happy snow shoveling!
@movq Hähähä, stimmt, aus dem Blickwinkel hab ich das noch gar nicht betrachtet! :-D Ich dachte, dass der angezeigte Blumentopf schon so einige Monate auf dem Buckel hat. Das Datum sieht nach 10. März oder gar Februar aus. Vermutlich dieses Jahr. August oder September können's nicht sein, denn der Bogen oben links ist offen und nicht geschlossen, also kommen nur 2 und 3 in Frage, nicht jedoch 8 und 9.

Irgendwie unterlag ich der Annahme, dass Aktenzeichen öffentlich zugänglich wären. Aber das muss ein Irrtum sein, denn ich konnt auf die Schnelle auch nix finden. Bin gespannt, was Du uns in Zukunft in der Sache noch so alles berichten wirst. :-)
@abucci Hahaha! 30-40 centimeters in front of me it peeled off. I could really hear the correcting emergency wing beats. :-)
Today at noon a great titmouse raced around the corner of the house and almost flew into my face. Symbolic picture:

@movq Wir befinden uns im Jahre 2022 nach Christus und ganz Deutschland ist von Bürokratie besetzt. Ganz Deutschland? Nein, ein von unbeugsamen Bienen besuchter Blumenkübel hört nicht auf, Widerstand zu leisten. Vielleicht kannst Du ja über das Aktenzeichen etwas in Erfahrung bringen. Interessiert mich auch. :-) Dem Zustand des Zettels nach muss das ja schon eine ganze Weile so gehen. Aber dann wundert mich, dass der ein oder andere Sturm dem Blumentopf samt Inhalt noch nicht den Garaus gemacht hat. Gut, vermutlich rechtzeitig in Sicherheit gebracht worden, um dann wieder rausgestellt zu werden. :-)
@movq Yeah, I've read about the pet story, too. Very interesting. I know of two dovecots here in the countryside, not sure what their primary reason is, though. Some years ago a mate and I witnessed how a buzzard or something along that nature attacked a pidgeon in the air several times and finally threw it to the ground. I think it didn't make it in the end. That was fascinating to see, but also very cruel. Well, simply nature. :-/
Cool trick with these pidgeon homes, never heard of them before.
@prologic Holy moly, that's really amazing. Like she doesn't need arms at all. At least from what I could see in the video, no idea what they told in Spanish. Wow, never seen such precisely controlled human feet. Hats off!
@prologic I see. Looking forward to a change. :-)
@movq Was zum Henker!? :-D
@prologic That's very laudable. However, Selenium is a piece of total shit, straight from hell. I've never seen it work reliably. So better don't have any tests than constantly failing tests where you don't know if it's just yet another random test framework glitch or a real problem with your code. Unfortunately, I don't know of an automated UI testing tool/framework/library that does not completely suck, so I believe, there just is no such thing. And it also cannot really work if you think about it. If there is a UI, there's no way to get off without manual testing. Sadly. Very sadly. :-( (Yes, one can check the generated HTML, but there's a lot more to UI testing in my mind.)
@abucci @movq Ta. Interesting, I didn't know that name, never heard of it. It even didn't occur to me that this is not a Stadttaube (feral pigeon) but some other species. Stadttauben are the prototype pidgeons I know.
@prologic Then kill it with fire. ;-) github.com/vcraescu/go-paginator pulls in several databases such as github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3, github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql, github.com/denisenkom/go-mssqldb and a few other things. Admittedly, only in its tests, but still. Probably still worth looking for a replacement or doing it completely on our own, depending on what is actually needed. Also, I just noticed that this blackfriday markdown library is included in both v1 and v2. I'm sure there are other libraries with the same issue. Gotta do some spring cleaning.
@prologic This graph shows all transitive dependencies, but also includes test-only libraries, that don't make it into the actual productive binary. Dependency removal is always a very good thing. Btw, is anybody using this selenium crap in the _tests_ directory? That's a low hanging fruit I believe (doesn't prune whole a lot, though). Awesome, I didn't know about the why sub command, thanks! At work I wrote a script to filter the go mod graph output in order to find the path(s) how a certain package is pulled in.
@justamoment Damn! :'-D Hahahahaha, this is fucking brilliant! :'-D
@movq Ta. :-) It's definitely a hundred times easier to take some pleasant photos with sunshine, that's for sure.
@movq Haha, yeah, regardless of where they come from, best to always avoid leaks. :-)
Lucky you! Once these birds fly away, they're usually gone and I'm never be able to see them again that day.
@justamoment The idea was to see whether you find the source without me obviously citing it. And you did. Good job. :-)
Encountered my very first boar in the wild ever. I thought I scared up a deer (earlier I saw one crossing the path 30 meters ahead of me) in the covert, but surprisingly an adult wild boar ran out. Before I realized it was running away, I was a little scared. But then super excited. Quite a large animal. And luckily there weren't any piglets around anymore this time of the year. Otherwise I might have been attacked. As usual, I didn't capture this situation on film.
Winding up forest road and some beautifully autum-colored trees in the background
@movq Oh, at what floor are you? That must be a super high tower. And now looking at the first photo it is. Wow!
Your shots look magnificent. You captured the foggy atmosphere very well. I love the raptor photos in particular. Also 4321 and 4332 look fantastic.
Here the sun is out, so I reckon I head out, too. You got me inspired. :-)
@justamoment Yeah, not too shabby. :-D Even secretly cited (not sure if anybody on yarnd noticed). :-P
@movq Thank you, glad you noticed it! :-D
At 27 the light was already mostly gone. I had to throw away plenty of photos from then on. 31 and following were taken past sunset. 31 was the last one I took freehand. Four the next skyline and moon photos I braced my camera on the side of trees as several minutes had passed since 31. So it was just too dark and calculated exposure times went through the roo^Wsky. Not the slightest chance to do anything without a support. Unfortunately, I cannot control exposure manually. For 35 I could balance my camera on top of a fence post. An internet distribution box was my makeshift tripod for 36. They all took several attempts, maybe 30-40 in total.
Uuhh, while typing these lines, two large herons fly past the window.
It's cold, -1°C.
Morning sun shining on some trees and a roof covered in white frost
Building an engine with pneumatic cylinders: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asynnXWJzxo This is really cool. Those liftarms really lack stability, the engine wobbles quite a lot. Good old technic bricks would be much better I'd say.
@movq Thanks. That framing is definitely not perfect. Not the slide, but the thick knurled brown rope with the smaller blue hand rope from the two posts to the right of the slide counts as a bridge I'd say. :-) Btw. that playground is closed off because the concrete footings have to cure.
And here's the rest of my stroll. Of course, I couldn't just go out for bridges and ignore the rest. Just impossible, although I tried. And failed miserably. ;-)
The sun is still powerful at peak 8°C in the shade. When I leaned against a dark oak for a makeshift tripod, the bark felt noticeably warm to the touch. That was very surprising to me. Well, I had cold hands, but still, very unexpected and great experience. However, it's the wet season, hence deep mud and puddles of standing water everywhere. My shoes were soaked in the end. Totally worth, though.
Super crazy reds in the woods of Mt. Äsberg at sunset
@eaplmx Oh yes, definitely. But worse are shoulder and belly. I'm glad that I'm not a knight or anything like that.
@prologic That's quite a setup, very neat! :-) With the tall tent I meant the frustum shaped structure left behind of presumably @kt84 in the camping chair. On second thought, @carsten, I reckon you're right. That must be the shower. The shape just reminded me of a mobile toilet. :-)
@kt84 Oh yeah, what a truly beautiful sunset! <3 Camping can't get much better than that. She should try in landscape orientation next time for *even* cooler photos. :-)
@justamoment @eaplmx Modules are a bit weird, indeed. In fact, you can name your module differently than the directory name. To the extreme, you can have a directory "foo", but call the module "bar" and call the "bar" directory your module "foo". Not sure why anyone wants that, but there you have it.
However, when it comes to nested modules, I believe the "prefix" path components must match the directory names or else Go won't find anything. So I recommend to always make the module name and directory name the same. That also puts much less cognitive work on yourself. :-)
Basically think of goroutines as lightweight threads.
@justamoment An Internet bot, web robot, robot or simply bot, is a software application that runs automated tasks (scripts) over the Internet, usually with the intent to imitate human activity on the Internet, such as messaging, on a large scale.
@prologic Very nice! I just didn't want to trade that enormous heat, no way. I'm happy with the 2-8°C here. Nobody in close proximity is awesome. And you have one of these iconic iconog foldup caravans. The tall tent is the outhouse I reckon? Do you have a solar panel on the car's roof? Enjoy!
@movq Oh, I see. It's been a while that I touched these bible paper thin phone books. But now I remember. Maybe you have to build multi layer planes. And hope that they don't separate mid air.
@movq Cool, cool! Definitly keep on going, mate.
@movq Maybe I'm a bot. Who knows?
@movq I'd say your wings are too small. The body is too high in comparison. Using an A4 paper I usually go with around 2-3 cm high bodies, then the wing is about 7-8 cm wide at the largest section at the tail.
@abucci @movq We also tried both approaches. I will see if I can dig up our design considerations over the weekend.
@movq Oh, you mean the license plate! Completely forgot about that one. Yeah, I had some data protection fun this time. Just blurring stranger's number plates is getting boring. :-)
@movq No edits apart from rotating a bunch of photos by 1-2° to fix my crooked camera angle. @abucci Thanks! We were lucky that the sun came out and five trains went by in just three minutes. Both unpredictable forces of nature.
@abucci @prologic @mckinley Some mates and I also started twice to build our own git based bugtracker several years ago. At the time there was nothing out there that really worked great. We failed to complete ours, because we wanted to have too many features and flexibility for small and large projects. So we ended up in the same useless state as all the other ones. I have to check this one out.
@prologic @stigatle Both spots are looking very nice. I completely missed to camp this year.
It was a cold and misty November day. Just like November is supposed to be. It rained in the forest a little bit, but on the way back the sun came out for a short time. And then it turned very cloudy and dull for the rest of the day. Mixed with rain time after time. Looking outside now, it's very dark and foggy again. Closing the shutters at 16:30.
There are still colorful spots, though
Sun was pretty nice, but it tricked everybody to believe it's much warmer than it actually was.
Colorful tree in the sun
@stigatle Yeah, go for it! I should do that with some of mine, too. But never could be bothered to actually make that extra step so far.
@off_grid_living Haha, for a split-second I thought that these are sets of teeth. :-) You have a nice food production going.
@stigatle I like that one. Totally looks like a photo of a model railway layout.
@abucci @darch Publishing stuff on the internet has become too cheap, let's change that.
There have been much cooler sunsets in the past, no doubt, but I can't complain about today's sky:
