The 12-bit rainbox palette is very pleasing to my eyes:

Tusker has some great features.

* Consolidating notifications
* Keyword-based auto-expansion of CWs (e.g. "long post")
* Both icon actions, and left and right swipe actions.
* Digital wellness features
* Support for markdown and HTML on sites that have it (e.g. Mastodon instances with Glitch extensions). (I have some issues with how Glitch handles this--otherwise I'd be using it all the time).
* Local-only posts
* Posting drawings
* Drafts
* Source is available. Don't see a feature you want? Contribute it! :)

My only complaint is the photo picker, which is the older "collections"-based ones, and is unusable on my phone except for adding very recent photos (I have nearly 50K photos on my phone--if I can't search or browse by date, I'm doomed).

Other than that, I definitely recommend checking the app out.

This is amazing. NASA commissioned a microgravity compatible espresso machine for the International Space Station (to make ISSpresso, obviously), and to stop the astronaut having to drink espresso from a closed container with a straw, a bunch of NASA volunteers designed the Space Cup, so the crema bubbles could be seen and the coffee smelled even in microgravity. And I've just been sent one in the post. That's Samantha Cristoforetti drinking from it in the ISS cupola. #ISS #Space #Coffee

I now have confirmation that #Bitwarden also failed upgrading security settings for existing accounts. One commenter on my blog had 5,000 iterations (the default before April 2018), elsewhere a user reports having 50,000 iterations configured (this was an intermediate step between June and August 2018 it seems).

Bitwarden increased the default iteration count to 350,000 a few days ago. So far this change only applies to new accounts however, and it is unclear whether existing accounts will be upgraded automatically.

And today OWASP changed their recommendation to 600,000 iterations. It seems that the previous recommendation was two years old, applying to the previous graphics card generation.

Here’s your Monday morning cup of coffee. Ballpoint on letter a4.

My top advice for anyone learning to code:

1. Don't try to remember everything; it won't help.
2. You're going to screw up a lot, and that's okay.
3. After learning something, write some code using it to make sure you've understood.
4. It's never, *never* too late to start.

TIL about Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance!

#LevelBoarding is here!

Are you trying to get #FediHired in #Infosec? Looking to pivot jobs? I'm excited to announce this event that I'll be hosting throughout the month of February. The 28-Day Get Hired Challenge!! Each day I'll pick one topic from #CybersecurityCareerGuide and I'll talk through it and drop it in a video on my YouTube channel. I hope you'll find it helpful or at least fun and interesting. Stay tuned.

Hey all, would appreciate a post boost on this one.

I, unfortunately, got laid off last week and am looking for a new job!

If you know of any going that fits my skillset of video content creation, educational CG writing, CG generalist then I'd love to hear about it! I'd love to stay working remotely, but I'm located in Scotland near Glasgow if there is anything around there too.

Yes #Jacaranda are still flowering albeit less bountiful in their current flowering cycle.

These were pictured from two trees in #CaulfieldSouth #Australia not 5 minutes ago in the late afternoon sunshine.

All those VCs talk about disruption.

Here's disruption for you:
