A screenshot of a portion of the README file from the GitHub repository I linked in this post, comparing duckyScript and QMK/VIA. It says: "duckyPad Pro runs duckyScript, originally designed for USB Rubber Ducky. Compared to QMK/VIA, you get: Much Longer Macros — Entire Bee Movie in one macro? Sure thing! Over 3700 macros total."

From time to time people ask me where I got that "Every tweet feeds the beast" Mastodon sticker (direct link to the toot with a photo of the sticker I'm referring to: https://friend.camp/@anna/113079165645 897026). That was a poster created 7 years ago by cybre.space user Claire Cavanaugh (right around the time I joined that instance). The original file is still publicly available, licensed under CC BY SA 4.0: http://svgur.com/s/2it

It feels great to get into my 30s with some sort of internal resolution about where I shine professionally, the places I want to be in, the things I want to do, etc. I'm still very much a <undefined title> kind of professional, but without that deep insecurity about my capabilities that followed me around for the majority of my 20s.

To be clear, I've been in a management position for years. My personal struggle was to understand if that's something I'd like to continue doing indefinitely, if it's something I'm truly enjoying (and I _am_).

It feels funny to write that I'm "slowly accepting that I'm more of a management kind of person" because the majority of my friends have fought tooth and nail to NOT become managers of any kind — everyone seems to really enjoy the operational side of things.

I'm really enjoying taking management classes and I'm slowly accepting that I'm more of a management kind of person rather than an operational kind of person, but I hate the anti-worker rhetoric within most management circles out there.

My spouse was showing me tile options and I swear 40% of them looked like the same design. For a moment I thought he was pranking me or something. (They had really subtle design variations.)

We’ve started the demolition process and — as one would expect —, that’s brought us some “gifts”. There’s a water leak in our bathroom coming from our neighbors’ bathroom on the upper floor, and another one we don’t know (yet) where it’s coming from in one of the walls of my spouse’s office. Oh, and our balcony drain is clogged.

A young, lean white cat with several portions of orange fur on their tail, paws, and face (where it kind of forms a ginger  goatee) reluctantly faces my camera and poses for a photo. Its eyes are bright yellow — one of them is half closed, and the other is wide open. The cat is sitting on a dislodged hexagonal sidewalk stone, placed in a poorly maintained area of a public building under renovations, full of weeds and broken stones.

A striated heron — a small bird with grey plumage, white underparts, a black cap, a dark line extends from the bill to under the eye and short yellow legs — standing on the edge of a tactile marking on the edge a lake in one of our municipal parks. Since it’s a clear sunny day, all yellow marks of this bird’s appearance are particularly striking. The rich foliage of the trees nearby is being reflected on the water.

O Kuba Uni (https://kuba.audio/products/uni) é bem competente. Finalmente tenho um fone de ouvido brasileiro de referência num preço mais aceitável para aqueles momentos em que quero presentear algum colega de fora do país, mas não quero presenteá-lo com algo clichê como Havaianas.

I love how thought-provoking that piece is (especially when you know the context behind OR's divide, which is one of the reasons why he treats Operations Research and Operational Research as different disciplines). I think of it as The Roast of Operations Research.

He did write a more transformative (and you could say optimistic) piece called "Resurrecting the Future of Operational Research" (https://www. tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.105 7/jors.1979.41), too, so you have an awesome story arc there.

The tone of it gets me laughing every single time I read it, it's beautiful: "In my opinion, American Operations Research is dead even though it has yet to be buried. I also think there is little chance for its ressurrection because there is so little understanding of the reasons for its demise."

At this point, I'm so tired of repeating myself in free software circles and have so many ideas brewing in my mind, I think I'll end up writing a thesis or a book — a talk or an article doesn't seem enough to get all of that out of me. I don't know, ping me about this in 5 years or so.

Here's a somewhat more structured blog post in response to that opinion piece about OSS needing "fresh blood"; it's in no way comprehensive and all-encompassing, but it still touches on a couple of topics it took me ages to extract from my thoughts, and expands on some things I've said here. https://notapplicable.dev/make-room
