@buzzyNZ Oh god, he pulled the old one out and there were so many dead bugs behind it and I died of mortification and now I am dead.
Okay, our new oven runs OpenGL. 😂 https://t.co/OniIFRwVMh
@buzzyNZ Pretty much. I think he was just happy we didn’t have Covid.
@Xavier_Ho First thing @the_snook said was we should try to play Doom on it.

@KathyReid Feature request: hide all Pinterest results too. Please and thank you.
@TravCharlton @KathyReid I know. I just wish they’d given me an official way to just exclude them completely rather than having to mask.
It’s very weird to see the US Surgeon General tweeting from the grocery store a block from my Grandma’s house! Lagrange county has had an explosion of cases, so good to see that folks are taking this seriously. https://t.co/tH8MWIuQqR
@randomknits We did a ton of prep work last night for a chicken pot pie, and it was a pain, but damn is it going to be just the thing later tonight. (Ugh, this weather.)
I’m in such shock. Grant was my favourite, and such a model for how technical folks can teach and communicate their enthusiasm to a wider audience. https://t.co/iOyYvWudj8
Chicken Pot Pie with Buttermilk Biscuit Topping from @seriouseats. A lot of work, but so tasty! https://t.co/pXb1FpX4FD
@TheRealBnut Interesting. I have recently become aware that your degree is important in ways I hadn’t anticipated later in life. While I can apply for a work visa in Germany, Rodd is eligible for an EU Blue Card allowing him to work anywhere. Why? Science vs Arts degree.
@TheRealBnut So a Google Certificate might not limit just which employer you can work for, but where in the world you can actually do it.
New oven being delivered this morning, which means a frantic 8am houseclean as we realise A) no other humans have been in our house for 4 months, and B) we live like animals.

I clicked on this blog post expecting to be inspired by Margaret and Frances’s art (which is amazing), but instead came away depressed and angry about the limitations placed on their careers.
Their marriages, in turn, lead to a dissolving of the sisters’ artistic partnership as Margaret and Frances began collaborative work with their respective partners, as was expected of dutiful wives. During such work much of the sister’s own artistic input was credited to their husbands.
Rage. 🔥

WordPress experts – I am beating my head against the wall. On one site, https://t.co/ChcOEEKcKG redirects to https://t.co/eunndVdO7O. On another, it doesn’t. I can’t figure out why. There’s no redirect_canonical involved that I can find.
@developerjack Appears to be happening at WordPress level, not Apache. Tried turning off different plugins, doesn’t seem to make a difference.
@Mikenicholls88 Redirect is happening at WordPress level, somehow.
@pwcc Yes, just says WordPress. No multisite.
AH HA. Seems to be related to the fact that one site has a static page set as homepage, and the other has list of latest posts.
Okay, so here’s the magic: IF you have a static home page set in WordPress, then any subdomain (other than www) that has no path specified (aka https://t.co/mWJcALAUrO) will redirect to your site URL. However, if you ask for https://t.co/Fzd3Ypcxbv, then it will NOT redirect.
BUT if you have WordPress set to show recent posts (like for a blog), then https://t.co/j2YWBFAntZ will NOT redirect even without a path.
So what is the point of all this? The point is that I don’t know how CloudFront *isn’t* barfing on https://t.co/tpSG1KvRg5.
WAIT, WE FIGURED IT OUT. 😅 CloudFront is forwarding the host header when it requests from origin, which is why it’s not getting itself into a circular loop. https://t.co/M5d4jrvZpu
Going down a WordPress/CloudFront/redirect rabbithole… or: How I spent my Sunday. https://t.co/2szCIfSEXi 😅
@gilmae The most painful part is if we had tested any other page than the homepage, we would have solved it six hours faster.
@gilmae I found this the other day. Enjoy. https://t.co/gopoUzQTzA
