Strange Loop was a great experience this week, and I enjoyed the Slack they set up for during the event, but for the first time in a while I left a bunch of great conversations without much confidence that I'd keep in touch online

There's been a lot of talk on Twitter about how the UK's Online Safety Bill was supposedly "defeated" or "weakened" -- it wasn't.
The bill passed with all the worst anti-encryption provisions, five days ago: https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/uks-online-safety-bill-passed-by-parliament-2023-09-19/

I didn’t know I needed to watch a cute, chubby field hamster running through a field in slow motion, but here we are.
Wildlife photographer Julian Rad has a nice collection of photos/videos of furry little friends in nature. They’re super cute.

So 'Rust by example' has all these little runnable examples you can get output for in the browser that's very nice... but what I just realised is that every code snippet in the book is rendered in an embedded text editor!? You can edit the code and re-run with changes to see any behaviour you feel inspired to investigate... 🤯 👏 👏 👏

- Two people arguing over the number 6 painted on the ground. One says, "Six!" and the other says, "Nine! Just because you are right doesn't mean I'm wrong. You just haven't seen it from my point of view!" The next panel zooms out to show the numbers 4, 5, 6, and 7 written and the first person responds, "Um, no. Just because your point of view doesn't see all the facts, it doesn't make you any less wrong." (remote)

I was very delighted to discover there’s an active and thriving #BelieveInFilm community on Mastodon a while back. There’s a whole cluster of hashtags where you can find lovely analog pictures, like #FilmPhotography, #35mm, #MediumFormat and more.

Mastodon really got it right when they decided to call their RT-equivalent "boosts." A repost is not the same thing!!
There are a lot of artists who had "please do not repost" in their bios and they definitely were not talking about retweets
