There's a certain point where not wearing a suit makes you look like an asshole, and that line is somewhere before "photo shoot with the CEO of a partner company"

Bitter pill to swallow, that there is a difference in quality between "I self-published a book on Amazon" and "I asked a computer to write a book and then I slapped my name on it DEMOCRACY." I would be ashamed to make that argument. #booksky

This is such a deeply weird take. It is not countercultural to conform to the inverse of a villain. A countercultural response is to keep doing your own thing. Changing your writing style to avoid being labeled AI makes you a conformist sheep, not a countercultural figure. Contemptible. #booksky

How much did this loser zuck pay @theregister.com to credit him with this feat of electrical engineering instead of the Korean company that actually did it? Honestly I've gotten to a point that I block news websites the second I find this kind of bullshit. One strike law. #tech

Am I missing something here? It discusses using Python mixins to avoid inheritance, but in the example, the inheritance is just hidden. ResizableMixin is still implicitly dependent on GraphicalEntity, otherwise mixing the two classes doesn't do what it's expected to.

I'm proud of how it turned out, all 400+ pages that we gave away for free. Basically turned into a mook by the end. Currently investigating a print version and learning about small batch indie publishing. 🚀

Does anyone know why Project Gutenberg (English) and Projekt Gutenberg (German) do not have the same contents? If you search for Robert Musil, for example, compare the English and German. #booksky #projectgutenberg #projektgutenberg

When I see headlines like this, I block the whole site. A hard drive. The answer is a hard drive, which anyone could guess bc it was literally the only possible way to store things at that capacity in 2001. I'll never guess? Homie, everyone on a website with "geek" in the name can guess.

Using my OAuth2 client to power a Google API library that I'm writing in @unison-lang.org. I doubt I'll ever fully implement this thing by myself. The API is massive! (First steps are calendar, gmail, forms, because that's what I use for my geeky fanfiction stuff!)

Kyle Götz @kylegoetz.com · 01/06/2025

Been working on an OAuth2 client in @unison-lang.org using an "ability-maximalist" approach for ad hoc polymorphism. Just an experiment, but it is really satisfying to run the code, have it open my browser, have me log into Google and authorize, and then see the rest of auth happen as expected!

Hello to all people who followed me because I was in the Unison starter pack! I promise I will talk about Unison sometimes, but my country is kind of going to shit right now and I apologize that I am consumed by #bookbinding and fascism at the moment (bookbinding unrelated to fascism).

Kyle Götz @kylegoetz.com · 01/03/2025

How my #bookbinding project is coming along. To do: leather label for the spine, trim the bookmark, and wrap for the Paris trip! (I've done a second book in parallel for a second friend.)

This, followed up by Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers, and Paprika is an unreal achievement. Four films, all bangers, and then he dipped from the world too soon.

They've arrived, and they are gorgeous! Marbled papers by Claire Guillot and Papiers Prina for end pages. To be used for a novel about a terrorist attack and one about grieving a parent dying of cancer. #bookbinding

Hope I don't eat my words when it comes to rounding and backing, but I'm pretty chuffed with how the sewing is going. Not perfect, but easier then I was afraid of. #bookbinding

This image sends me into a fit of despair. An unparalleled romantic masterpiece that takes place in a country rapidly rising by every metric.

Same text. Green is Apple Preview of a PDF. Bottom is (grayscale) Acrobat Reader. Peep the text spacing in the speech bubbles. Preview has a bug. Glad I caught this before I bound the book! How does such a long-supported format viewer have such a glaring bug?! #bookbinding
