Integrity matters.

You can gain cheap wins by acting dishonorably.

But in the long run, people remember who threw others under the bus.

On a side note, does anyone else think the X logo totally looks like the Nespresso lego?

[Gordon Oheim @go_oh]

What if people would just keep calling it Twitter instead of X?

[Gordon Oheim @go_oh]

Oh great! Tweetdeck now requires to have a paid account. Just got logged out. Certainly not going to shell out money for it. Will just make this whole thing more obsolete.

TIL: Stephen Covey's Circle of Influence is basically a more executable version of Niebuhr's Serenity Prayer.

@ifthencarl I see that it also returns false when it cannot create the htmlCreateMemoryParserCtxt: https://t.co/vRnVrN4rw8

But I am not familiar enough to map that to a string.

[Gordon Oheim @go_oh]

A lot of people apparently don't know PHP's DOM can handle real world (broken) HTML fine if you load it with loadHTML() or loadHTMLFile().

[Gordon Oheim @go_oh]

@ifthencarl Not aware of a string, but you can pass PHP_INT_MAX as an option to loadHTML as it will return false when you pass it an invalid option.

Also, I learned that Harley Quinn will always look like Margot Robbie unless I specifically tell the AI not to make her look like Margot Robbie.

After playing around with some image rendering AIs, I come to the conclusion that "prompt engineering" is much closer to brute forcing as many combinations of words that might potentially yield a desired result (non-repeatable). Not exactly what I'd consider "engineering".

There's other fun songs about Agile on the YT Channel (mostly about Scrum).

@ThorstenRinne The Boys, Ash vs Evil Dead, Preacher und Solar Opposites. Aber unbedingt The Boys, falls du die nicht schon längst durch hast.

Got my @TLImusic shirt in the mail today. Love the handwritten note and the shirt being climate neutral. Thank you Delila and Edgey. Great show in Cologne. #myfavoriterockband

@Mark_Baker Also Lord Byron:

How quick we credit every oath,
And hear her plight the willing troth!
Fondly we hope’t will last for aye,
When, lo! she changes in a day.
This record will for ever stand,
“Woman, thy vows are traced in sand.”
- To Woman (Hours of Idleness, 1807)

Very annoyed by the growing @AmazonFreevee content on Prime. Keep it around if you think it lures more customers, but please remove the ads for paying Prime customers.

@joshleecreates interesting. how long do the pens last?

[Gordon Oheim @go_oh]

I considered buying a reMarkable 2 tablet earlier last year but held off because it didn't allow syncing with cloud storage then. TIL they offer this now, but you need to be on a subscription plan. Complete deal breaker for me.
