"So that we won't say we didn't know"

A #documentation project by citizens of #Israel that proves you can know what is going on in #Gaza and the #WestBank, if you care to not close your eyes.

»The Daily File is an independent voluntary project by Israeli citizens wishing to bring attention to numeric, visual, documentary information about the daily goings-on in the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip, the interface of #Palestinians and the Israeli security forces and colonists.«

CW / Content warning:

The linked website also documents photography and videos showing what is happening, including wounded human beings and corpses of all ages.

Continued thread

@3dprinting I've written the first draft of the assembly guide for the FilaBilly Dehumidifier. It's a Markdown document. I've got a couple dozen photos that I want to insert into the instructions, and I kind of want to make it look better than Markdown. So I'm thinking about word processors. It's been years since I used one. Maybe Apple Pages?

Meanwhile, the rest of the IKEA parts are coming this week. So progress is progressing.

"When evaluating documentation’s role, consider these broader strategic questions:

- Strategic positioning: How does documentation support the company’s core strategic approach?

- Competitive advantage: Can documentation create or enhance the company’s unique market position? What type of documentation does the competition offer?

- Value proposition: How does documentation contribute to the product’s overall value for customers?

- Knowledge management: How does documentation support internal knowledge retention and transfer?

- Customer lifecycle: How can documentation improve customer acquisition, retention, and satisfaction?"

@dougmerritt @AmenZwa Calling it "vibe-coding" makes me a bit sick to my stomach. Like "refactoring", a word for a concept that doesn't need to exist. Dark matter.

LLMs are basically manual pages you can ask to write a snippet. There is no "I" in "LLM", but it is a better way to access the manuals for sure. I don't want to have to read all 100 pages just to find the function call I need, I only want to _ask the book._

Si j'étais pas en reconversion, je postulerais sans doute x)

I'm finding converting my personal tech notes to public blog posts more challenging than expected.

They've served me well as quick reference docs, code snippets, & cheat sheets. But they look like utter shit when I consider another person looking at them.

I've leaned too heavily on editing, proof-reading, & expanding existing public docs that my writing from scratch has atrophied.

It's a bit of a struggle; but, I want to get these off my local machine and improve my writing.

#discord IS LITERALLY THE PROBLEM!

I'm shure fecking #dread has better moderation and I'd rather use #MicrosoftTeams + #Slack cuz those at least have proper #moderation tools.

  • And I'd rather subscribe to the #LKML and see my inbox getting hosed than using any shitty #SaaS!

Case in point: I'd rather #SelfHost all my comms infrastructure than to ever use something like Discord or any other #GDPR-violating SaaS that is just enshittification.

I'd rather recommend people to instead choose a tool that does everything but horrible to go with multiple smaller & good tools
