A priest, a pastor, and a rabbit entered a clinic to donate blood.

The nurse asked the rabbit: "What's your blood type?"

"I'm probably a Type 0", said the rabbit. --via George Takei

Normal work week. Too sick to do any programming related stuff besides work.

Articles

• Why not HTMX? | First good critical article about htmx I have seen. Yes, you have to be careful with adding hx attributes to div elements (breaking a11y etc), but I disagree with web components being the solution, because how to do hx-sync with web components?

Books

• Beej's Guide to Networking Concepts | With source code in Python!

Software

• django-zen-queries - Gives you control over which parts of your code are allowed to run queries, and which aren't

Mastodon

• My people! What’s a recipe you cook semi regularly that’s really simple but is has no business being that delicious (given the amount of time/effort it takes)?
• Conni kann das alles nicht mehr

Podcasts

• Bruno Preisendörfer: Sokrates (Das philosophische Radio)| Didn't know about this "not" vs "nothing" thing, nice!
• #408 – Tal Wilkenfeld: Music, Guitar, Bass, Jeff Beck, Prince, and Leonard Cohen (Lex Fridman Podcast) | Brr, I'm not interested in Lex human side at all, but Tal is cool.
• #369: The Readability Episode (Python Bytes) | Dunno why I listen to that show less often, lately

• The Old Parser (core.py) | Great! Wow about this access stuff...
• Mastodon with Eugen Rochko (Software Engineering Daily) | Really good episode
• The website of the Bildungstrinken podcast is down, but if you are only interested in the audio content, you can still find it here. We did a kind of nostalgic drinking session while trying to listen to the first episode.

I take my hat off to Jörg Meyer. If your cocktail recipes are printed on ice cubes packaging, you've probably made it.
