@cafiffle Wow, your baby is so advanced, already doing metric volumes

this kid just slammed 130ml after doing 60 in intervals all day and we’re both terrified having an infant is just playing Russian roulette with a small person’s guts

@Eerookah Can we make "cislate" the new "mansplain"?

@mightyohm Jeff, I'm surprised that you don't know that Myers-Briggs Type Indicators have been totally discredited for extension cords.

@FreyaHolmer I don't recommend using those settings to go faster. Change speed settings in the slicer and re-slice. The various limits are not linear, but that "printing speed" setting is.

is it time?

v6 results! the new snap fit with a little dent for the squares works really well! it feels super rigid and good now 💖

@mollygos Your cheesecake is cracking under the pressure.

@ZachWeiner Historically famous people get phonetic translations. Modern famous people often get nicknames made up by the Chinese public. Students of Chinese get assigned native-sounding names by their teachers (which can be influenced by the original name). Your last name is clearly 王

When converting an English language name to Chinese, do you always go phonetically, or can you try to use the sense of the name? Asking as a Weiner Smith.

fun fact: the saying "let him who is without sin cast the first stone" refers to the notion that basically all functions can be represented as a Fourier series

@cafiffle I heard that if the baby's head starts crowning and it can see the snow it goes back inside for another 6 weeks

this is very lovely and all but I need everyone to stay healthy and unborn until the roads get plowed

@mollygos I haven't been getting DMs, but I have been getting bot follows.

Finally memes about the 8051

Made #ChatGPT pick 3 motivational words for Hermione's wall. Tried to get her to change two of them, ending up with 4 total words. Defeated, I asked for Hermione's reflections in a diary entry:

@tonycoxphoto Looks like you started complaining about Americans not understanding offsides before Americans complained about not understanding offsides. Your tweet is disallowed. 🏳️

Every World Cup there are 'explainers' in the US media about the offsides rule. Why is that rule considered so specifically baffling to a US audience? It's very straightforward compared to some of the rules in the NFL, for example.

@FreyaHolmer If William Rowan Hamilton had twitter...

uh did I get this right? I'm worried I might've missed a sign somewhere

@cafiffle I figured you'd go to a forum full of bright-eyed, bushy-tailed new moms and tear up the place like Veronica Sawyer in Heathers

for what it's worth I'm cafiffle on the other sochmeds, and if I pick up a mastodon or cohost I imagine it will be the same there

@sephiramy I can't believe "Smell You Later" replaced goodbye.

@FreyaHolmer Imagine if cozyblanket could drag some crisp new C++ over this legacy business logic

imagine how much more fun programming could be, if only we could focus 100% of our efforts on reviewing somewhat-broken PRs all day, instead of problem solving and code design

I think it's great how we're using AI for things humans hate doing, like visual design, art, and voice acting, so that we're left doing only the fun stuff! like, methodically cleaning up slightly off work that someone else did

@cafiffle Does she know that trick for folding fitted sheets?

she had a very busy weekend

@d_feldman Is twitter going to flap its wings at the last second?
