@silwol @CCTG yeah i didn’t wear my mask much even though I brought it, wish I had though. Didn’t get infected but just want to renormalise wearing them

@sil @scrwd an emeritus prof I work with does genealogy as a hobby but also used it in teaching CS because it’s a good example of something where every seemingly clear rule has many exceptions in practice

My “The Horror Show!” Exhibit book fits well on this shelf
Bookcase. Adjacent: “England’s hidden reverse” and “the encyclopaedia of witchcraft and demonology”

The closing episode of “Severance” was great

@srtcd424 @kylegordon @pwaring there's uknot-request@... but it's likely broken too I think. mailman interface is on chilli.nosignal.org , suggests Andy Davidson?

@srtcd424 @kylegordon @pwaring I can't either, sorry

@srtcd424 @pwaring @kylegordon last mail I saw was from Monday. It has been quiet of late though

@edward thanks: I’m sorry to hear that

@zhenech sure I guess that counts. I'd like to try and gauge how much transmission might have occurred. There was *so much* written about it would be a super-spreader event before/during, and I haven't seen much to confirm that after.

@neil @revk I’d totally second pandoc a first pass at least. AsciiDoc is worth considering as a format: some areas improved on markdown (sadly some steps backwards too)

@Migueldeicaza voice calls probably fine. Video calls, a bit weird.

Anyone heard of folks who attended #FOSDEM contracting Covid afterwards?

@wbm312 interesting. More of problem for some sockst types than others!

@mart_brooks that is bizarre

@mart_brooks urgh yes very typical nightmare story. From what I gather, all Debian's Haskell packages have to be built at the same time, or something like that, for similar reasons

@mart_brooks ouch. Yes that stuff can be a nightmare. "Stack", greatly improved things, IMHO. But I guess you're well out of that now anyway

@mart_brooks you worked on some Haskell stuff?
