Hi, I'm a software engineer with experience in large mobile apps and microservice architectures. I have ties to Pittsburgh, Austin, and DC.

I'm currently learning Clojure for personal enjoyment. And I hope to get back to the Banjo too.

Any good coffee places in #Pittsburgh near #PyConUs?

@emocoder Pittsburgh is full of good coffee places. Convive, espresso a mano, inkwell, de fer, constellation, klvn.

Those aren’t super close to the convention center, but they’re not far on the bus

As my time in Texas comes to a close, it’s time for me to ramp up my George Strait listening in these final weeks.

@RL_Dane I’m headed to DC, not Cancun!

(But I’ll keep an eye out)

It’s a beautiful day outside, and so my spirits are high. Might create a new spreadsheet or something.

Imagine building bedrooms with no way to get to them. Genius!

Is there a standardized way to reference recordings of songs? I feel like there must be an identifier or a set of fields that uniquely identify a piece of music. I know if I sat down to list the fields I would come up with something woefully inaccurate.

( trackers must have already solved this)

Ok, this is promising. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard_Musical_Work_Code

> The ABBA song Dancing Queen has the first and lowest International Standard Musical Work Code (ISWC), T-000.000.001-0

Okay fun, but not particularly clever… why this song?

hpincket,
@hpincket@fosstodon.org avatar

Ok, and here’s the standard for identifying recordings. Not too excited that these are industry sponsored standards, but let’s see what we got…

Not a huge fan of the central registry. There must be a million recordings that simply don’t go through this process. I’m interested in something more flexible.

    @jsq It happens all the time. Every so often I need a reminder why the GPL rocks. See Insomnia.

    Um so, awkward question. I haven't written in 13 years or so. Where's a good place to start? I don't even know what's out there.

    Getting a surge of registrations for my Raft course. So, I posted a new set of dates for February 5-9. Going to be a busy winter I think. https://www.dabeaz.com/raft.html.

    @dabeaz I saw a reference to it in an HN comment yesterday. Likely the source of the surge.

    Been playing around with again after discovering Babashka [1]. I always disliked the slow startup time of the JVM...getting rid of that is super nice. Might write some scripts this week to try it out.

    @zstix I saw this the other day. It might help get the gears turning. https://endot.org/2023/08/07/highlight/

    At first I thought it was an ant, but on closer inspection it’s more like an ity bity praying mantis. @alexwild is probably the expert here.

    And my shaky video

    a little bug doing a dance.
