Since today is Saint Martin's Day, here's a humble image of the popular saint that I recently encountered on Veliki Brijun, Croatia. Carved for a church in Senj c. 1330, it has "Sveti Marъtinъ" written in Glagolitic letters around the saint's head – part of Croatia's long tradition of Glagolitic.

Today I pushed to the wrong environment and then I let out an audible gasp so I had to send a post mortem to my wife as well.
Everything was fine. I just needed to explain UAT to my wife.

Tesla's latest gambit: become a rental car company. As cars pile up in showrooms and storage lots, Elon is trying to rent his way out of a crisis. Good luck, bud. #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall electrek.co/2025/11/10/t...
Tesla can’t sell its cars anymore so it is renting them now
Tesla is launching a new car rental program out of its stores in the US, as sales are crashing due...

Apparently people watched the Josie and the pussycats movie. That blows my mind. I don't think anyone actually liked the cartoon m Jem did the concept better.

Accidentally called the House Speaker “mom” in front of the entire country, mortifying.

Mamdani is the most Trumpian politician the Dems have in the sense that his supporters will give zero shits what the beltway pages write about him and probably see it as success whenever they complain about him, I don't think the press will be very influential re public perception of his tenure
Mamdani is in a no win situation. The press in NYC will respond angrily if he gets his proposals they hate passed. Or, they will call him a failure, if he doesn't get the proposals they hate passed.
If he keeps his organizers energized, he can power through this.

Farm subsidies for not farming except it's Bitcoin
I really couldn't help but dig into this - and I think it's fair to say that the Economist headline *is actually correct* - and I'm going to explain why in a short thread.

I understand getting rid of library fines even if I'm not 100% on board (like I wish they were voluntary because I can afford them). However, can we please declaratively say a book is due. Why say it *MAY* be due.
