Volunteer plants. The tomatoes were from split ones I would've discarded last year, and grew up through the fencing. The marigolds best we can tell are from when C was deadheading the planters on the deck.An orange marigold bloom at the base of a salvia plant.

Every time I go on LinkedIn I see posts about the productivity gains of AI coding assistants, some from people I used to work with, and all I can think of is,
![@paco@infosec.exchange on Mastodon: One of the ways that LLM-authored code improves productivity is by merely SAYING it does things. It's way faster than the whole time-consuming process of actually doing things. This is real code someone sent to me for review.
[The code has two echo statements, one that it's verifying lambda packages were created, the other that all lambda packages verified successfully. There is no code between the two statements: nothing is being verified, but it's outputting that it has.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mwhdprzl5uvimxa3kh24jvpl/bafkreia3qkvkou2rmnfullwkqgv7rlt7ypcp7shi22ah66p43ccz4bxium@jpeg)

Genuine question: I've seen a bunch of stuff on how Mastodon isn't going to do Mississippi's age verification stuff, and that they also don't care (Mastodon GmbH is German). I've also seen a bunch of stuff like the screencap'd skeet, where people are like, "o ho ho, they're gonna find out." ...

I am...one of the older developers on my team (mid 40s),and my team is wonderful. One of them found this at an estate sale, knew I had one as a kid, gave it to me as a Christmas present.
The condition is incredible. Barely used. I use it on occasion when I'm working on SotW.
