The Green Sheep in now on a coin. Actual legal tender of the land. I am beyond proud! Read all about it on the ABC: abc.net.au/news/2024-08-15/g…

Where is the green sheep? On a 20-cent coin

Classic children's book written by Mem Fox and illustrated by Judy Horacek gets commemorated on 20-cent coin.

A doctor and a lawyer are chatting at a party. But every few minutes, someone comes up and pesters the doctor about some ailment and asks for advice. After a couple of hours, the doctor, exasperated, asks the lawyer how it is that no one bothers asking HIM for advice?

I'm going to print one with an NMOS and a PMOS. I bet I'll get a lot of complements.

Well, 11 years on and this place has really gone to shit, eh ... if you're still a regular here, you've got to be asking yourself why. #MyXAnniversary
hey just because this shitty site gave me a picture of the number eleven doesn't mean I'm not responsible for giving it some alt text, right? It's a number 11, kind of cut out of a stack of coloured papers, revealing the lower layers. I guess it's meant to look celebratory, but the topmost layer is pure sterile white and that's what's covering everything up which I dunno just somehow to me doesn't say celebration.

Still here?: look, I prefer the whole fediverse concept and aus.social/ is working for me, but if you'd rather not for some reason then there's also bluesky bsky.app/ and here's a couple of invite codes: bsky-social-xlbp4-ti4xi or bsky-social-t5pr3-wpcgd

Program suggestion: Cellar Cabinet, where we invite prominent politicians down to our catacombs to sample our new cask of amontillado.

Heading to @pyconau Adelaide? Interested in electronic music hardware and software? I'll be bringing a new, upgraded version of my terrible #MIDI guitar hero controller for #PyConAU Fair. Get in touch and maybe we can team up and do something #awesome!

Hard to swallow pill meme with the text: Most people who die of cancer live in poor countries and many die even though they could be cured with existing medical technology. Hodgkin Lymphoma has a 93% survival rate in wealthy countries, but less than 5% in communities where treatment is inaccessible. Poverty is the world's leading cause of death, and efforts to improve health without addressing poverty are doomed to fail.
