@chrisvasselli I haven’t hit this issue myself but maybe this might help?

In the autumn of 1883, a paper in the nation's capital reported that "an Iowa woman has spent 7 years embroidering the solar system on a quilt."

Ellen Harding Baker used her stunning quilt to teach astronomy in an era when women could not attend college:

Any time somebody posts about how great ChatGPT is and how it’s going to power their next system (or powers their current system), I feel like asking “And do you know that ChatGPT is a liar and is delusional?” 😛 (Disclaimer: Just a turn of phrase, I do not believe that ChatGPT is conscious …)

But I guess people will believe what they want to believe. They always have. Current state of the world is a case in point …

@AngelaPreston For some reason, even though I haven’t used Excel in ages, I’m partial to a good Excel tip/trick. Though I’ll probably never need it, it *feels* like something I should remember just in case. So thank you 🙂

This Black-headed Gull flew pretty close to see what was going down on Heron Island, so took opportunity to get this photo.

Newbie here! A friend told me that she couldn't see my bunny artwork (I forgot to post it at first!) so I'm reposting this...

As the owner of two bunnies as pets in the distant past, I was stoked when I heard that 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit. So of course I've set out to create some rabbit artwork.

It makes it all those hours waiting in the cold worthwhile when you get the flight shot & they are looking straight at you. 😛 😀

My favourite from a very cold morning in July 2014. These have been very good earners for us as stock and prints.

Winter at Lake Wanaka, Otago, New Zealand, with birds roosting in the single tree and mist rising from the water.

Hey!

I was recently laid off and I need help finding a new job. I'm a (primarily) PHP dev with experience in ETL, consuming APIs, writing docs, and some amount of experience with refactoring legacy code and building APIs.

I'm looking for a remote, mid-level position where I can continue to learn and grow as a dev and human, within a team of other devs.

I prefer working with PHP, but I'm open to other programming languages.

I also contribute to the PHP manual when energy permits.

New instance, new #Introduction !

My name is Jürgen, and I translate old German folk tales into English - not just tales from the Brothers Grimm, but from the hundreds of other 19th century German folklorists out there.

To date, I have translated more than 440 tales. You can learn more about my project here (and you can get a free ebook version of my first book if you subscribe to my newsletter there):
