@bender@twtxt.net Goes to show you just have a good nose for that. :^)

No doubt, I really do love them. Not only wonderful humans and like-minded, but also technically gifted. That made for a superb combination. I just hope the new team turns out to be equally great.

Bwahahahahaaahaaahaaahaaa, what a brilliant story! :‘-D I’ve been given at most ten weeks to return, let’s see. ;-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org no wonder I picked that cake (albeit coincidentally), I adore almonds, and hazelnuts! Your teammates are absolutely amazing, dude! A very nice project farewell! On leaving places I have a small anecdote.

I know someone who on 3 February 2004 left his job to go elsewhere. At the time his teammates threw a party, and gave him a very nice portable storage. Twenty days later, he returned, and jokingly they asked him for the storage, and money spent on farewell party back. I heard, from a close source, that he gave them his middle finger, but don’t quote me on that. 😂😂😂

@bender@twtxt.net Mate, I don’t know how you do it, but the frequency of words I haven’t come across before is actually quite high in your work. I noticed it in your twtxt messages in the past, but your notes are also full of them. I love it, always learning something new. Thank you for teaching me without knowing. In case you’re wondering, “yesternight” and “squalid” are the ones I stumbled across today. :-)

@bender@twtxt.net That’s the best one of them. An almonds cake with hazelnut chocolate glaze. The one in front is similar, but with chocolate only. Gingerbread on the right. But it develops the best flavor and consistency only in a few weeks, right now it’s quite hard like a rock, but it will soften up.

All those years I always said that my teammates are THE VERY BEST I ever had. Fuck me, look at that, I didn’t leave the company, just changed projects and this is my farewell present: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/abschiedsgeschenk-2025-12-03.jpg How absolutely beautiful is that, I’m in awe! Now I feel even worse deserting. :‘-(

This emblem is the fleur-de-lis of the world scout movement: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Organization_of_the_Scout_Movement#WOSM_emblem I reckon I must have mentioned casually that I’m a scout. ;-)

@kiwu@twtxt.net I’d recommend the one i linked you to a 2nd hand Sony 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net right! I’ve been looking at used ones I might be able to use…

@prologic@twtxt.net yes that’s enough! thank u for the recommendation <3

@kiwu@twtxt.net Only thing i can find that meets your requirements is the ORDRO HDV-V12 HD 1080P Video Camera Recorder Is 80m of video rexorsinimg enough for you?

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣 I need a
good break after this insane year 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net dayum! Australians truly know how to vacay! 🥳

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org what’s on the one on the left, back? Looks… enticing! 🤤

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Not for another two weeks i’m afraid 🤣

Let’s hope that the two cakes turn out better than last week: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/tote-und-lebendige-kuchen-2025-12-02.jpg Got some gingerbread as backup. Yeah, best lighting…

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Nice! And thanks for the additional info. :-)

Day 2 was pretty tough on my old hardware. Part 1 originally took 16 minutes, then I got it down to 9 seconds – only to realize later that my solution abused some properties of my particular input. A correct solution will probably take about 30 seconds. 🫤

Part 2 took 29 minutes this morning. I wrote an optimized version but haven’t tested it yet. I hope it’ll be under a minute.

Python 1 feels really slow, even compared to Java 1. And these first puzzles weren’t even computationally intensive. We’ll see how far I’ll make it …

@prologic@twtxt.net Using your own language?! That’s really nice! I hope you get home soon so you can give the code a try. 😅

Saw this thing today 🧐

@bender@twtxt.net Amen and al ha 😂🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 😂 It was such good beer 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net maybe they should dedicate one of their advent days to make sure their site is responsive. 😂

Found this place in Hanoi in Vietnam 🥳 Amazinf beer!!! 🍺

AoC Day #1 solution (mu): https://gist.mills.io/prologic/d3c22bcbc22949939b715a850fe63131

Hmmmm the AoC site is not mobile friendly 😢 Can someone post the puzzles as Twts? 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net pretty neat looking boat. We don’t see boats like this around here. It looks to be made specifically to resemble an older boat.

@prologic@twtxt.net pretty cool! I like these, wish there was a way (I am sure there is, but not for tourists) to go to the top. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s also a quite clever approach. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Lol, these sails on that boat! :-D

Sharing some photos of our Vietnam trip so far…

@bender@twtxt.net You are so right 🤣

Day 1 was surprisingly finnicky. A lot of people got it wrong, apparently. Me too. 🤣

https://movq.de/v/488136b4ae/day01%2Dblurred.jpg

@prologic@twtxt.net don’t seek the problems. If they exist, they will show at your doorstep. Hahahaha! Anyway, shame on me, I should be sleeping, so I ought to.

@bender@twtxt.net No, but if there’s a problem i want to know about it so i can address it 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net not every twtxt expects engagement. 😅

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Hmmm? 🧐

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I want to see them too! 🙈

@movq@www.uninformativ.de great video. I don’t agree with everything, especially the modern websites highlighted as not that bad, but definitely agree, with the main point. https://youtu.be/2z7kVH9xePM

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe They did their own thing at first, but from version 6 onward, it’s also just Chromium.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de your reply got me almost ROFLMAO IRL. It drew a laudable laugh, for sure! 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net geez, a simple “I don’t wanna” would suffice. 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Ah, god damnit. 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeah, you fetched it too quickly, it was edited seconds after picking the wrong image. LOL. Which brings us back in a whole, huge circle, to twtxt edits, and how to handle them. 😅

@thecanine@twtxt.net At least it’s all chromium 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Lots of things stop me 🤣 crappy wifi, no international roaming, no remote access (by design) just to name a few 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net Nothing stops you from programming while in Vietnam. 😏😈😅
