Have EDC kits gone too far?
For me the EDC (Everyday Carry) has always been about lightweight, portability and minimalism.
Nowadays many people consider EDC a bag full of stuff they won't take out when they go jogging or grab a beer.
So what's the point? Stick to the essential, non invasive and light 3-4 tools you REALLY need.

A couple of nights ago I dropped a glass dish on the kitchen floor and it broke into hundreds of tiny pieces 😿
I swept up what I could see and used a torch to help me find the pieces that I missed. The glass glinted in the light beam and located even tiny fragments.
It seemed like an interesting analogy for #SoftwareTesting. What #tools (designed for testing or any other purpose) do you point at software to expose problems that are not naturally visible?

Today I maintained the chainsaw. It was leaking some oil and the forest sand was everywhere. I cleaned it completely and afterwards I sharpened the chain ⛓️. Ready to cut some trees before summer.
The first thing I wanna do with it is make a wooden bench for the vegetable garden.

Reorganizing the garage here. Slapped together some tool storage to free up shelf space today.

And a second Silly Duffer moment for today:
as part of an ongoing project to have crushed green velvet-lined nests for tools, another drawer is nearly done.
After the usual too much time spent trying to tuck and clamp the material around the edges and underneath whilst gluing, I finally 🤦♂️ realised that the drawer it's fitting into makes a perfect clamp. All I need to do is flip the insert over, and push it in. A couple of layers of cloth makes the fit extra snug.
Thankfully it's only taken me 3 out of 10 drawers to realise this 😡
I am getting so close to finishing up this planer rebuild. I didn't come in from the shop until after 10:30 pm. This project has been a ton of fun, but I'm ready to be able to USE the darn thing! #woodworking #tools

As sometimes happens during long holiday weekends like this one, I wondered about trying to get back to attempts at "programming" (term used loosely as my programming is mostly limited to changing and combining code snippets found elsewhere).
This made me once again realize how much I wish
1) I could actually program well
2) for our #library #tools to be #OpenSource so I could try to make changes to improve such tools, instead of hoping vendors will act on bug reports/suggestions.

It took me years, but I finally created a handle for this lil cheap- O (but effective) induction heater. I wanted it to heat electrodes while under vacuum (doing so makes the tube run better) and oven pumping- but since I bombard pretty much everything- I haven't really needed it. This one is super cheap I paid like, $60 for the ATX power supply and $40 for the induction heater board off ebay. 500 watts 12vdc is a nice tool!

What I'm dying to see out of #ProgrammingLanguages, #tools and #FOSS in the near future is even more package managers. You can never have too many package managers. We already have a different package manager per language, and considering everyone thinks this is so amazing, why stop there? If you're really serious about your project, if you dream that it may become Your Project Foundation one day, ship it with it's own package manager, and, hell, add a fancy new build system. The worst thing you could do is narrow your ambitions down to software that plays nicely within a greater universe of user tools, because you must seek to not to attract not users but rather Projectstaceans for whom the sky is the limit, an individual ecosystem is the only serious contemporary #FreeSoftware goal.

Koolkits provide opinionated, language-specific, batteries-included debug container images for Kubernetes.
Why? — Since production containers are usually rather bare, using a KoolKit enables you to troubleshoot with power tools instead of relying on what was left behind due to the generosity (or carelessness) of whoever originally built the production image.

20 Lesser Known but Great Productivity Tools
"I come out of the woodwork to share some incredibly amazing productivity tools in a list I’ve been working on for the last 2 years, but have still narrowed down to the core tools that any entrepreneur, business owner, or agency should seriously consider adding to their toolkit."
I don't usually like lists but this one is excellent.

I have looked at quite a few tools/search engines powered by models like GPT-3/4, but perplexity.ai and phind.com i think are the best around, (i personally don't like Bing)
Perplexity even allows you a daily limited number of GPT-4 queries and has the Wolfram plugin, great for math queries.
But if people disagree or think others are better, please let me know 🙂
As always, don't trust those tools, always check/verify outcomes, don't use confidential data

Most tools will use AI technologies in the back-end to achieve their goals. Currently this includes OpenAI's models. As the tools and backend improve, the intent is to move to an open source alternative.

It slices, it dices, it… cuts your fingernails? Opens… walnuts?
(In fairness, I have definitely trimmed a hangnail with flush cutters, but I wasn't going to literally advertise that.)
So I'm making my dad a personal website this weekend. It's extremely simple- static site, ~ 3 pages with some basic css. Links and text, maybe a single image.
I feel like every tool I'd each for is great at building complex or large sites, but I don't need that. I need "1 step above raw #HTML".
Right now my best idea is HAML and a build script (and manual #CSS).
What #tools would you use?

Still packing up the boat! So far we've reached 3.2 m³ and counting. Can't say there isn't lots of stowage space aboard! :)
Here's my trusty general boat tool bag, weighing in at a sporty 17kg. It withstood the #CruisingLife well and didn't mind being lugged to fix other boats occasionally, although for the most part I just stuffed what I needed into a backpack instead.
So my gas lawnmower died and I took the plunge on a 40V Kobalt battery powered mower. While I can tell there's s little less torque it gets the job done just as well.
Then my chainsaw bit the dust and I bought a 40V Kobalt battery powered chainsaw. I was SUPER SKEPTICAL. A battery powered chainsaw? You've got to be kidding.
It's hands down the best chainsaw I've used. No fumes, pretty quiet, and the battery lasts a long time.

This is a complete rewrite of the code:
- separate crates (parser / runner / binary)
- nom is used for the parser
- better errors
I started the project in 2018 and it was time to clean-up the code. The previous grammar / logic had some serious limitations.
The performance has also improved https://github.com/yamafaktory/jql/blob/main/PERFORMANCE.md

Is there a tool to which I could provide a list of the folks I follow, and my home instance, and see how many of them are on instances that block mine, or that mine blocks?
As server admins decide to defederate with each other over policy and behavior differences, I'd like to keep following folks, even if my admin decides their server is "bad."
I can move servers, but it would be useful to know if/when folks I follow get blocked this way.
Thanks.
