it's a concept in dunning-kruger that you sometimes see in the illustrations used to describe the effect. None of this is very scientific anyway 🤣 I'm pretty sure the dunning-kruger effect has even been debunked, but it's still an interesting mental model to think about in these trying times 🫠

"velocity has a direction in a very high dimensional vector space" is a very @eaf4.com quote and a great thought to leave us with in a closing @emberfest.eu keynote 🎉

I'm sorry @notion.com but you crossed a line with this one. Your "Meeting detection" feature is not helpful; it is creepy.

Your docs don't go into enough detail on how you are doing this, so I'm now removing the Notion desktop app and recommending my colleagues do the same as a security precaution

Because of a strange series of events I'm attending the Munich Rust meetup at the @mainmatter.com office 🦀🎉

One thing that I wonder: what percent of Rust talks is actually just everyone watching the rust compiler? 🤣

Here is what my pixel can capture with the star mode on the camera. A remarkable number of stars

Tonight I managed to take a picture of Jupiter and 3 of its moons with a very cheap kids telescope. It's really amazing to think about what is possible, and it is always inspiring for me when I get a chance to see the stars with a truly dark sky

Lol I was too busy with the kids all day to check my phone and I wasn't expecting this thread 🤣

The meat is "torn ham hock"

I released something today while at a cafe having brunch.

If you haven't moved all of your npm packages to release-plan yet then you should! It is by far the easiest way to release and it really lets you #releaseanywhere with no fuss

So it looks like @notion.com has broken the screenreader again 😭 after every paragraph focus is stolen by the AI widget.

Here is a demo of the behaviour (sorry for no sound but you can see the voiceover preview)
