Music tracker interface inspired a programming paradigm. I don't get the provided programs at all.
In a noisy environment, you can simply tap your finger before someone speaks to hear better,
Gotta try it!
A die-hard tiling WM user tried a scrolling WM and never looked back. I don't look back to tiling WM:s too, but I don't use a scrolling one. I want to look into that one day.

Random dev notes about work at Bluesky by Paul Frazee
An alternative to the World Wide Web
For better or worse, I sometimes think. I have heard that I therefore am, but I’m unconvinced. Nevertheless, sometimes I write my thoughts down. Mostly just in my diary, but other times I publish them on the Web. This notebook contains those of my writings that are in a state somewhere between published and private.
Understanding the concept of nothingness is as much a philosophical issue as it is a pragmatic one.

Demonstration of the Voxel Space technique
By wrapping errors and building well-formatted error messages, we can keep better track of where errors are happening. I often just add the name of the function being called to my error messages, but we can make the message say whatever we want. For example, I’ll often include parameter information in the error so I know which inputs caused the error.
Alex got inspired by chat bubbles and considered adding them to Oddμ. Mentions something called Gibberish, which I will bookmark next
Chat bubbles are cool.
I told him he would need a special syntax for that and he got scared. He also liked a quote of mine: “it’s impossible to keep a publishing system pure Markdown”.
Беру любой JSON и вижу, как его можно упростить, убрав лишнюю вложенность. Вдвойне обидно, что на эту вложенность кто-то тратил время, а она не нужна!
Активный Оберон — база, его русский вариант должен, соответственно, быть базой.
В 2016 году океанологи впервые обнаружили и записали то, как кашалоты общаются друг с другом, используя своеобразную ультразвуковую речь из коротких и длинных ритмично повторяющихся щелчков (кодов), напоминающих сигналы азбуки Морзе. Им удалось обнаружить, что кашалоты общаются друг с другом тэт-а-тэт, в формате диалога между двумя особями. До этого биологи считали, что эти киты используют групповые формы общения, что «диалекты» их языка различаются по группам, и одинаковые для их членов. Но оказалось, что каждый кит общается с товарищами на собственном «сленге». Учёные планируют использовать машинное обучение, чтобы попытаться расшифровать то, что эти животные «говорят» друг другу. Если люди когда-либо расшифруют язык китов или даже определят, обладают ли киты тем, что мы действительно можем назвать языком, нам нужно будет наделить их щелчки контекстом. Результатом расшифровки общения китов будет знание того, кем являются эти одни из самых загадочных существ Земли.
Серьезно, не нужен. Я бы предпочел SQL.

It stayed the same.

Author's write-up: https://adactio.com/journal/18862
The Canadian Wetland Classification System (National Wetlands Working Group 1997) is based on a hierarchical system, which includes (1) wetland class, (2) wetland form and (3) wetland type. The five wetland "classes" are differentiated by their developmental characteristics and the environment in which they exist. The five classes are: bog, fen, marsh, swamp, and shallow water. Some wetlands accumulate peat (partially-decomposed organic matter) and are called peatlands. Bogs and fens are the dominant peatland classes in Alberta, although some swamps and marshes can also accumulate peat. In contrast, shallow open water wetlands and many marshes and swamps do not accumulate peat.
A description of a fantasy device.
The rock phone accepts various types of input: speech, morse code tap/hold, written characters, bluetooth keyboard, bluetooth headsets. The rock phone produces various types of output: speech, morse code beeps, bluetooth serial console, console avilable by wifi, remote screen available via wifi. The rock phone has a bone conduction speaker inside so you can place the rock phone on your temple or behind your ear to privately hear rock phone speech output/sounds, phone calls, music, or any other sound the rock phone might make.
