I have written a blog post, something I rarely do.

Unfortunately, since the last time I wrote one, Hugo has apparently become a "framework", the entire config has changed shape, everything throws deprecation errors, and my blog renders as a blank page.

Just, why

@danderson What I did when I started using Hugo for my site (which is also never updated except once every 3 years), I checked in the hugo binary with it. I can provide a v0.82.0-9D960784 if needed :p

But overall, I've not been impressed by Hugo either - it was surprisingly complex for something which targets, well, simplicity & low tech it seemed.

Fitness watch I use to monitor vitals since my ER adventure the other week: omg you're so stressed, all the time!

I mean for one yeah, literally had a life threatening thing happen and am still recovering, can't imagine why that would be stressful.

But also this led me to learn how these stress trackers work, and the relation to ADHD! 🧵

@danderson Hah, thanks for the details about HRV - I got a watch recently (Garmin 255s) and I was wondering.

That being said, I was also wondering about the reliability of all those watches sensors and found... well, nothing. I would have expected people writing reviews to actually look into that, but I don't think I've found a single mainstream review going into the actual heartbeat measurement precision/accuracy. And for sure that when I sweat, the measurements sometimes becomes a bit iffy.

As I dig into OSM's schema, the sheer amount of collaborative work that's gone into this dataset really hits hard.

"I wonder how city boundaries are represented" took me on a wild ride through the documentation of boundary=administrative and admin_level=N, wherein OSM contributors have laid out taxonomies per-country, but often also per-region within countries. In Canada, Yukon and Quebec have different names and conventions for marking areas of the province, and so OSM varies its taxonomy.

@danderson That's probably time for https://wiesmann.codiferes.net/wordpress/archives/15187 and related article. Somehow reality and humans always get in the way of beautiful abstractions :)

People working on applications: I want to pick a way to make SQL queries (most likely SQLite and/or Postgres) but I'm totally lost with the many options available. Do you have any recommendations please? 🙇
It's for a web app, a smallish Activity Pub social network.

So far I have:

@alyx I have a small (private) project in Go #GoLang about Mastodon; I've been using database/sql + sqlite. Though while I have lots of experience with Go, I do not with Go+SQL.

I went for this because I prefer more direct APIs. I can rely on my SQL knowledge without having to learn the idiosyncrasies of some random lib. Nor I have to fight to do something I would know how to do in SQL.

But unlike an ORM, if I load the same row multiple times, I have to deal with the consistency myself.

@alyx The name & approach rings a bell. Re-reading it, I do like the idea of it, but I did not dig further. Tbh I probably went for database/sql initially as I had no idea where I was going with this project. Otherwise, knowing myself, I would have spent time playing with $lib and not actually work on my initial goal :)

Ce week-end, j'ai fais une Sachertorte. C'était la première fois que je faisais un gateau à étages - et ca a très bien marché :)

J'ai suivi une recette de JustInCooking (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9Lcb-6Ozyc), qui comme d'habitude fonctionne impeccablement. J'avais trop de ganache au final - j'aurais pu faire une couche plus épaisse sur le gateau je pense.

A noter, c'était nettement meilleur à température ambiante que juste en sortie de frigo.

Un Sachertorte, avec un quart manquant, donnant un point de vue sur l'intérieur du gateau. Un peu de confiture a l'abricot a coulé.

@athenavocat Je crains que ce qui soit fait le mardi se réduise systématiquement a un ensemble nul pour de bête questions de schedule :(
Pour ce qui est mangé, c'est assez limité - a un knoppers aujourd'hui :)

@flameeyes I must admit that the jam is just jam-from-the-local-supermarket :)

Alors pour #MardiPatisserie , du caramel. Plus spécifiquement, l'étape caramel de https://owiowifouettemoi.com/2018/10/27/butterscotch-pudding/ (de @Owi une fois de plus), parce que ca avait une tete amusante. Bloup bloup.

Bon, évidemment, vu l'odeur toujours persistante le lendemain dans l'appartement, je soupçonne que j'ai cramé le caramel et que la crême est une catastrophe, mais c'était fun :)

Une casserole avec du caramel qui a pris énormément de volume en cuisant et qui fait beaucoup de bulles.

Bon, pour ce #MardiPatisserie c'est des bugnes certes achetées - mais on avait fait la recette sur notre blog: https://coincuisine.pasithee.fr/2006/05/27/bugnes/ !

Celles là on les a trouvé chez notre épicier Italien du coin - sous le nom "bugie". Chez moi (Rhone-Alpes), on faisait ça chaque année en famille, pour le carnaval :)

C'est une pate simple, étalée très finement, frite et puis saupoudrée de sucre. Ça en mets de partout et c'est impossible de s'arrêter d'y manger :)

@jmc Hah, je connaissais pas ce nom là :) Des fois j'ai vu aussi (en France & Suisse) le terme "Merveilles" - mais qui des fois aussi réfère à qqchose d'un peu plus épais (et qui du coup se casse moins en mangeant, c'est moins drôle :)

@jmc Oops, sorry, I did not notice that I answered in the wrong language :)
