That's what I enjoy about kagi: because I can block and rank sources, I get to do some reverse-SEO, and the results are really good with remarkably few adjustments.

I've switched to another email/calendar service, and I don't use Google Search (kagi ftw) ... but I can't get rid of my Workspace account because I'm the admin for the rest of the family (who won't leave gmail). Still, anything that further fragments Google's information about me is a net plus.

(not counting numerous VMs with everything from Debian to Linux From Scratch)

I'm on a refurb M2 Air that I picked up from Apple for peanuts. It took me about 15m to get NixOS running on the thing, and it's going to last me for 10 years, if my old MBP is anything to go by.

Also, regardless of the hardware politics, I'm not sure I've been in awe of a project as much as I have the Asahi team. They're just doing so much so quickly and with such command of the subject ... and they're so young. It's a joy to watch them work.

Whenever this topic comes up, I find myself wondering what these folks do all day. Not in a Boomer "don't these people have jobs?!?" way, but more ... what is it like to be them? Do they just sit in front of the computer looking for conversations to disrupt? What is their daily existence? Because I find their volume and dedication to what they do fascinating. Cancerous and absurd, but also fascinating.

LOL yep. I'm deleting the parent.

Let’s see.

Bearnaise
Bechamel
Apple
Pesto
Ketchup
Sweet BBQ
Chimichurri
Gravy
Panang
Romesco
Tabasco
Mustard BBQ
Vinegar BBQ
Mustard
Mole
Garum

The scale admittedly ramps up exponentially at the end there.

I mean, a liter is very close to a quart, so it's not like we'd be asking people to adjust their mindset completely. And ditching US measures means we could finally, once and for all, dispense with the nonsense of having a dry and a wet "cup" measure.

As for converting records, well, it would be trivial to display a converted value in whatever EMR system a practice uses while noting the values are converted and allowing display of the uncoverted data for validation. (Which brings us to the EMR discussion.)

Upvoting not because you agreed with me but because of the relief of discovering my flagrantly innocuous frustration might have a kernel of justification.

It appears that it is. The first version, February-based, is 24.2. The next scheduled version is 24.8, scheduled for release in August.

If that’s the case, I’m less saucy, but my understanding was that the numbers were based on the release month. (Noting for emphasis that I cannot overstate the absolutely minimal nature of my irritation and that it doesn’t detract even a whisker from my appreciation of Libreoffice! It’s almost, but not quite, tongue in cheek.)
