I’m choosing to spend my Friday evening working with dates in JavaScript.

Have I COMPLETELY lost my mind?!?

This has been needed for deploying certain Clojure WAR files to Java application servers, before we quit and went to uberwar

On Linux you can do this to set a default java version/jdk:

update-alternatives --list java # list it
update-alternatives --display java # see default
sudo update-alternatives --config java # choose a new
man update-java-alternatives # read docs https://twitter.com/vwbusguy/status/1459305138514…

I made a mistake. I switched to imap and set the script to download all messages. I forgot that the script runs on a Cron every 5 minutes, and the process is something like a 2 hour download. Since a new grabber would start before the old one was even close to finishing, the math says I got something like 24! duplicates. Okay, it can't be that many since my hardrive still functions. But suffice it to say, it was many. Now I'm taking suggestions an email duplicate cleanup solutions.

So, for a low monthly price Twitter will give me what Mastodon has had for... how long now?

Here is what happened after I decided that gmail's changing email security also warranted finally changing to imap, and then letting it download the mail all night (and it's still not done). Future issues expected.

how every Monday starts for me. #email

These are my weakpoint with #css so this seems valuable

Did you know React catches common typos and warns you against them?

I love the perspective shifts that can work into troubleshooting

These are some great reasons .org is a good replacement for .md. I should look into toc-org

RT @heymingwei
The experience of writing README in @emacs Org-mode is unreal!
Some of the benefits:
1. folding and focusing on sections
2. auto-generate table of content (toc-org)
3. call API and format results directly in doc
4. inline display images
5. magical git interface (magit)

Whoa. Why is #qoto the only #Mastodon instance that has quote-toot, not mstdn or mastodon .social ? #noxp
