A day that starts with a writing session is a good day.

In forums and social media I often run into a thinking where people want quick wins and shortcuts to having a large notes system without having to put in the work.

That's a dangerous trap!

Writing and processing your notes is the important bit. It's called thinking and without it, a knowledge base is kinda useless.

I often do double processing: quick note + rewrite to digital system.

@Jaimieserotica I thought as much. I'll make sure that you are the first to know.

@Jaimieserotica

But, please do not worry. I have many, many more puns flying around in my head, which I will be sure to share in the fullness of time.

@senkorasic I understand the LEGO analogy in theory, but I just don't find it fun in the same way in practice!

The outcome? Better products, achieving the same result with less energy and more intelligence in the design.

And this is how the humble vacuum cleaner got better.

— Regulation (EU) 666/2013 on ecodesign requirements for vacuum cleaners. In force since 1 September 2014.

@Jaimieserotica

Never too late to start if you haven't been doing yours, Ms Erotica.

In 2014, in Europe, there was much ado about 666.

That was the number of an EU law that required vacuum cleaners to use a maximum of 1,600 watts – and there was a lot of talk about the EU allegedly ‘’banning powerful vacuum cleaners!’’

What actually happened is that manufacturers had to get the same suction with less power. And they did. Because when aims are clear, engineers know what they’re doing.

@bazbt3 I was specifically thinking about WAP when I posted this. If the real goal was to remove anything that could be considered sexual, then WAP along with thousands of other music videos would have to be removed.

This week for #OverUnder 077, @alex is my guest.

He shares his thoughts about taking #notes, #LLMs, #Stoicism, #Peertube, and #beetroot..

He also replied to @writingslowly's question.

And, like every week, we got a recommendation for two #books.

@luca ah 😀) ia o cameră mai bună data viitoare. Mina în sine e incredibilă. Also, Salrom au un magazin în salină de unde poți cumpăra sare foarte ieftin. Am luat 2 pungi de 1 kg la 1 leu fiecare și m-au ținut cred că 2 ani și ceva.

B is for batteries included

Python comes with batteries included — meaning it has a fantastic, powerful standard library. Two years ago, I spent an entire August writing about my favourite parts of it.

@pzumk 😂 aw that's one unlucky timing, you dont get to use paid sick days, lol. Well, hang in there a little more!

I've been to this place several times, last time a few years ago. This place is just massive and overwhelming. In no other place I ever felt like a little ant walking around. And should I also say that this is also an active salt mine as well underneath the place that can be visited? Wow. Just wow!
