stream announcement
https://twitch.tv/madewokherd I fixed a bug (I hope) in my flashcard program that made any card I hadn't succeeded at have an interval of 0. So we should have more variety and less repeated failure in the chaos stream now, hopefully.
Last November, NASA's Voyager 1 sent home garbled data, and engineers traced the problem to the flight data subsystem (FDS). The problem turned out to be a single chip in the FDS memory. They couldn't repair the chip but could move the affected code into sections and store them in different parts of the FDS system. They tested the new system this week, sending signals to the Voyager 1, 22.5 light-hours away. It worked, and Voyager 1 is back.

https://twitch.tv/madewokherd Today's chaos stream is brought to you by Snapcraft, which apparently lets you block gamepad input going to Firefox and was essential to getting Sweet Home to work on my weird controller setup. I'm very happy someone implemented this feature that I can't imagine anyone using except me in this precise situation.

@12 Mine was on the host system.
@12 I'm pretty sure those macros are only used to embed metadata, so they can be safely defined out.
@12 I'm not using Solaris, this is on a Steam Deck which runs Linux.
@12 I'm trying a bootstrap on Linux right now and got exactly the same error.
This discussion reminded me of an interview I heard on NPR a few weeks ago w/ an author of a children's book about a boy w/ one arm. It's aimed at disabled kids, giving them permission to not answer questions about their bodies. It acknowledges the often unspoken belief people tend to have that if you're different, you must want someone to comment on it, to break tension (and how this needs to STOP). I can't remember the name of the book. Anyone know it?
@matthewskelton this made me realize that, as I was thinking of all the research I've read lately, plus books like reinventing organizations, well...
The most successful leadership teaching course of all time might just be convincing executives to go to therapy for 5 years??
