Unless you're a power user, you should check out Photopea[1]. It runs well as a PWA.

This reminds me a bit of Hand and Brain [1], another fun variant with kids. We usually switch to normal chess after a predetermined number of moves.

We use Django and django-ninja [1] and like it MUCH better than DRF.

At the root of it all, humans are just part of a larger, enduring tapestry of existence. We arose out of it, and we'll be absorbed back into it.

Indeed, the "story of the object from its perspective" would be interesting to know for many of the items in The British Museum.

I may be alone on this, but kitty¹ with sessions has nearly eliminated my use of tmux.

New comment by ryannevius in "Aleksandr Sorokin smashes 24-hour world record with 198.6 mile run"

ryannevius — Mon, 19 Sep 2022 14:07:05 +0000

Aleksandr's training is public on his Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/26934035

Something to remember is that this is his pace _after_ pit stops, so his actual running pace was faster. Also notable is that this course was kind of terrible, with four 90 degree turns and three 180 degree turns each lap for 209 laps. There's little doubt that he could run > 200 miles on a course with fewer turns.

> By sitting down to rest after the baby stops crying, they can apparently be put into a deep sleep.

It seems stopping crying is a precondition for the "sit and wait" step.

Despite spending a lot of time with Mr Mac, I fear Draco's chances of success in this contest are slim, given the unfortunate connotations of the name.

This is really interesting. What's the reasoning? It turns out this is _very_ close to my own rate, by chance.

Possibly unrelated, but there used to be a healthy population of "wild" parrots in Bakersfield, of all places.
