@gargle not on purpose. It looks pretty cool tho! Perhaps they were involved in running some of the drinks stalls on the weekend?
@kinnison Yeah perhaps club mate. I think I had one at some point. CERK INFO pointed me at https://cercle-informatique.be/ which is fascinating but possibly irrelevant
#FOSDEM ers, can anyone help me recall what "SUM UP CERKINFO CI DE" might be? €6.70 EUR. I'm guessing a coffee or something like that!
I didn't think I necessarily had more to write about lavalamps but perhaps I do. I recently bought some new colours/bottles. And a friend sent me this interesting Techmoan video where he reviews some Mathmos ones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipFePT4Z270&pp=0gcJCZEKAYcqIYzv
Some people joke that you need a PhD to understand Haskell’s type system. I actually have one *substantially related to haskell* and I _still_ get stuck
I’ve been off my regular meds for about 2 weeks now (in order to take some antibiotics) and I don’t know if it’s psychosomatic but I generally feel more energetic and “with it”
@mcc also completely agree with you about the trilogy wow. What a time that was.
@mcc I think it’s just some screw up as the responsible publishers changed hands
@mcc hesitation marks has been deleted from *all* digital platforms at the moment
I utterly utterly utterly HATE trails before bbc radio plays on smart speakers. Some variant on enshittification
@fraggle @bloody_albatross @scy I’ve seen it copied around a lot recently. You just be a proud comment-dad :)
@andrew_shadura I didn’t realise you were at Fosdem, I would have loved to say hello!
@richardfontana I'd somehow missed that you'd moved into IBM (as have I, with the Middleware crew). "Welcome" might not be temporally accurate but "welcome" anyway!
