I got really excited about the @hubitatinc Z8-C Pro with thread, but they buried the lead
It doesn't have zigbee. It was a trade. I want both, not the or the other...
and I mean, overall.. it's imposter syndrome. I feel very siloed in the space and like I really don't know enough to be giving talks. I look (up to and) at people like Larry Garfield and definitely feel like a tiny fish in a massive pond.
On the fence about applying to give talks at PHPTek.
I could DEFINITELY do a talk on MessageFormat - as I feel that's still an under-known/utilized portion of PHP, especially with stuff like Marko making their own pluralization engines.
Can't think of additional topics though
I _guess_ I could talk about Warden and cool things it can do with Magento? But I'm incredibly hesitant to push Warden too hard in the wider PHP space as I have NOT been doing a stand-up job as it's.. Warden.
I'm not sure I want more eyes on that..
A neat smart watch would be one that's like the Pixel Watch combined with the Fitbit Air. You have a watch band with a small sensor built into it and a watch face. You take the face off at night to charge and when you put it back on it wirelessly charges the band sensor
‼️ BREAKING: Journalists hid an Airtag in a rare book shipment and confirmed Amazon to be one of the buyers behind the bulk orders destroying rare-books to feed their AI.
They tracked it to Amazon's LAS8 warehouse in Las Vegas, home to VGT3 (see logo below), a scanning operation feeding Amazon's AI training data, where workers say they cut the bindings off books to scan them faster.
Amazon won't say why the books are destroyed.
@danieltkelley Ah but the catch is that worded that way we're supposed to think he did it himself - but it doesn't exclude practical effects like fishing wire or magnets, only cgi
Remember when 16:9 was new, and companies kept putting their 16:9 videos in 4:3 on the internet? So you had little black boxes.
I have a 21:9 monitor. POST YOUR VIDEOS IN THEIR REAL ASPECT RATIO. END BLACK BOXING
Coyote vs ACME final trailer - trailer in 21:9, video in 16:9 with a 16:9 endscreen that could've been in 21:9.
I'm really tempted to start a twitter account that just shames official trailers into posting in their actual aspect ratio.
