It seems BlueSky is attempting to start collecting personal data for policing purposes now. I’m Not very active here anyways, but will be less so in the future. Follow me on Mastodon or my blog if you’d like to stay up to date.

Rust has some pretty baller tooling crates 😀 Generated this railroad syntax diagram for a mustache derived template DSL using github.com/nu11ptr/pest... in just a few seconds 🤯 #rustlang
A railroad diagram in the style of the original JSON spec showing valid tokens, sequence, and repetition rules.

Today's fun with Unicode, OpenStreetMap, Foursquare OS Places, and giving users useful search results :) ianwwagner.com/til/unicode-... #unicode #programming #openstreetmap
A list of search results showing the same restaurant twice. The first result has a different appearance, being comprised of mathematical unicode symbols.

I missed #SilentSunday but is #MistyMonday a thing?
Morning fog covering an apartment complex. Tall buildings peek out in the background.

Finally found some ski buddies here and had an amazing (but long!) day on the slopes yesterday :) Guess I can also say I've skied an Olympic venue now haha.

That's hilarious! I assume this is because nobody knows about cal.com (I only had 68 meetings). (Why don't I just use Calendly like everyone else? Because they have this insane limit of 5 calendars per account, no matter how much you pay them.)
An email saying that I'm a "top 25% user of Cal.com"

Cutest alcohol ad ever?
Three toads (blue, gold, and pink; mascots of the Korean alcohol company Hite-Jinro) sitting around a table in the Korean style of camping in front of a restaurant. The blue toad has a red scarf and festive hat. They are surrounded by a rectangular pile of stones.

Exhibit of the day in fallacies programmers believe about languages 😅 (The reason is most likely that, since Hangul is encoded as 3-byte sequences in UTF-8, this shows up as 3 edits at the byte level. The distance should really be 1.)
A screenshot of a database system claiming that the Damerau-Levenshtein ("edit distance") between 안녕 and 안경 is 3.

Foursquare OS Places just dropped for December! Here's a density visualization for places (with some filtering to remove stale/inactive/uninteresting ones). 43mm records crunched using DuckDB in 10.6 seconds. Probably coming soon to a geocoder near you ;) #Maps #OpenSource #OpenData #dataviz
A map showing hexagonal tiles shaded by density of POI data in the Foursquare Open Source Places dataset which match the filter. It's heaviest in North America and Europe, some coastal areas of South America and Austrialia. Japan, Korea, and parts of Southeast Asia are also quite bright!
