Quicker and simpler.

As the name suggests, the content will be 23 sec slices of (music) videos I like.

so i ended 5th (of 14 participants). Not bad, i think.

so, earlier today participated in the #ascii / #ansi / #petscii compo with my entry https://www.cyberpunk.net.ar/despuesdelzoia/

tmuxp is one of those wonderful tools that you spend a quite a while carefully setting up to have quickly a really nice environment every time you reboot, about every couple of months or so.

for _years_ i've been using a shell script in order to use another key for work that basically does this:
$ GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -i ~/.ssh/work/id_ed25519" git $@

So I thought that today was a good day to improve this situation and wrote this simple tool:

Then read the git-config docs and found out about `includeIf`
https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#_includes

`rubber ducking` might be the most effective method to debug something (anything).

got back in Telegram because it was simpler to create a bot to enqueue torrents at home than setting up access from anywhere.

i find really amusing how dramatic "i cannot for the life of me" sounds.

lately i have this feeling that when someone requests a code-review at work, it's only to get a "yeah, that's a PR", no useful response what-so-ever.

This question arose while watching The Goonies, when Data corrects Mikey's mother [0] about his nickname.
So thanks SDFers (and Fedi) for the replies :-)

Also, this movie is a bit more grim than I remembered (I mean, it starts with a guy who "hanged" himself in prision).
