I'm a bit of an eclectic mess 🙂 I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

Lost about several hours messing around with CoreData yesterday trying to get the List filtering working for Tusker. I think this is why I prefer my own SQLite abstraction layer since then I know what the heck is going on ...

CoreData just gives cryptic error messages and while you’ll probably know what is going on if you work with CoreData all the time, for somebody who messes with it occasionally, it’s all a bit too much.

I was on the verge of adding my changes as JSON files since my changes wouldn’t have added a lot of data when I finally figured out what was going on with CoreData. Whew!

Now I need to actually implement the list filtering and we might be done?

I've been trying out leonardo.ai with a bunch of new prompts since yesterday.

The following are the best results for: "Burning the cradle at both ends" ... and no "cradle" wasn't a typo, that was the prompt I wanted 😛

I’ve been talking about trying to create a smaller, quieter home timeline and yet be able to follow interesting accounts with a large number of posts/boosts. I tried unfollowing some of these accounts and putting them into a list and, as should have been obvious, it seemed to fail since you do need to be following the accounts.

And yet, my list kept showing new posts but not at the volume that I would have expected from the users I added to the list. And only posts from some users.

I was puzzled about this and was wondering what was going on. I think I might have an answer — it looks as if you don’t need to be following the user to get their posts *as long as you follow somebody else who follows that user*. If the user and you have nobody else in common, then you won’t see any of their posts in your list.

So still not the ideal outcome, but maybe a workaround (albeit one which can have privacy implications) in case you want to go that route, I guess?

I think I’ll simply go back to my original idea of implementing homeline filtering for list members. But that’ll take a bit longer given the stuff I’m working on at the moment 😞

How many native plants to plant? Consider:

Mass plantings better attract and serve pollinators, which are losing habitat where you live.
Pollinators are beautiful and calming to watch, which you need more of in your life.
The cheap seeds can be sown directly in the ground and pots for those unmotivated due to lack of experience with multicolored butterflies fluttering around.

Help yourself and the . Plant a bunch.
