this is a relaxing post

A gorgeous display of cable management. The cable intake is on the upper left and the server is to the right. The cables drop in, in organized bundles. Blue, green, yellow, and orange. The neat cables and tied together with their respective color. The green color wraps near the yellow, but sinks to the floor. The blue is the largest section, and makes a cute lil loop around the orange cables before seating into the top three servers. The orange is in the middle surrounding the yellow, and the yellow is the majority of the middle section. The organized cables bounded together almost look like a water park slide. It's organized, beautiful, and satisfying. The cables appreciate you.

Good explanation of how energy prices are set in UK and why we pay same price as gas for renewal energy which are fraction of the price of gas.

Has to be the dumbest Tweet in the universe when you consider around 80% of its customer base is Opensource folk who historically have been very uneasy with police forces around the world.

Went to see Aussie Floyd on Monday at Symphony Hall in Birmingham. Excellent gig, great music and amazing light show and animation. Would really recommend for any Pink Floyd fan out there.

Boost this toot if you're planning on sticking around Mastodon whether or not it becomes more popular than the birdsite.

I've always considered applications using the 'postgres' default database not to be best practice, especially when they are authing as the 'postgres' user.

Do other people agree with that?

On-site with a client doing PostgreSQL stuff for the first time in far too long. It felt good and looking forward to helping them.

Almost 180k new users joined #mastodon yesterday, a new record. This third #twitterMigration wave happened after Musk's Twitter 2.0 ultimatum to #Twitter workers. Each wave is stronger than the previous one. Here is my updated plot showing the three consecutive waves.

The plot shows the graph of the number of new users in the Mastodon platform as a function of the date for the last months. It can be seen that until Musk's purchase was completed, the daily new users were about one thousand. It jumped to twenty-five thousand during the first migration to Mastodon, just after the Musk's purchase of Twitter was completed on October 27. A second jump to 100k new users per day happened in the second wave, just after the massive layoffs in Twitter on Nov 4th. Finally the third jump to almost 150k per day happened after Musk's Twitter 2.0 ultimatum on Nov 17th.
