    Spent the morning unsuccessfully trying to do a sewing pattern adjustment. It was like 12-dimensional geometry. Thinking I’ll stop and study functional programming for a while. Can’t be any harder. πŸ˜‚


    @stufromoz JEALOUS!


    @unixbigot The problem is people don’t scale in reproducible ways. Everybody’s got weird lumps and bumps. It’s all bespoke!


    @unixbigot But yes, there’s stuff like this: https://t.co/8xZOcy44N4. (I actually own that but have never tried to use it.)


    I sewed myself some new shorts today! Prefontaine Shorts from @thatmoxiegirl. Fun and fast! https://t.co/TnK6AjQWnu https://t.co/NkKOmDVlCC


    @Not_Pele @thatmoxiegirl Hand sized. Might make the next ones bigger!

    @TheRealBnut Bought it last week and decided not to wait any longer!


    @aussielunix Whoa! Congrats. (Damn, you’re like the 5th Aussie I’ve heard is going just in the last couple months. US is recruiting here hard.)

    @yow_conf Heh. That was actually included in my talk last year! πŸ™‚


    Dahl’s short stories now arranged on a fancy timeline: https://t.co/tDP5ojDadV. I’m having a CSS issue though – anybody want to help? I’ll buy you a Dahl book as a thank you!


    @knitcodemonkey There’s something weird in the break points. Occasionally items appear out of order, but when I fiddle with the browser window width, they fix themselves.


    @knitcodemonkey Example screenshots from this page: https://t.co/Mj8dR4dXkh. This is in Safari on Mac. First is widescreen, second is after making window narrower. https://t.co/KjG6EQdG8F


    @knitcodemonkey I should note that this is a WordPress plugin from @CodeParrots: https://t.co/MVmTXwxkwB. I’ve raised the issue with them but they haven’t found a fix yet.


    @knitcodemonkey Oh good! It’s been driving me nuts. Any help at all would be fantastic, thanks.


    @knitcodemonkey @CodeParrots I can’t see anything in the admin that makes that item different to any other… πŸ€”


    @knitcodemonkey @CodeParrots @media Ooh, I’ll try it!


    @knitcodemonkey @CodeParrots I added it in to the child theme CSS. Checking now…


    @knitcodemonkey @CodeParrots I reckon you’ve done it! πŸ‘ I’m less concerned about whitespace than I am about the ordering.


    This makes me so happy. I know a few different folks doing this. Thank you @CamilleHein for letting me know! ❀️ https://t.co/bkG6WT5VbI


    Three cheers for @knitcodemonkey, who debugged my gnarly CSS issue on Friday night just for fun! She’s awesome. https://t.co/gGQuDb2ZB1

    @knitterjp Tripview flags the Christmas bus?! That’s amazing!


    Interesting. It’s basically chart-to-text. I much prefer knitting from charts though, so I often have to go the other direction. That’s why I love Stitch Maps! https://t.co/8CO1AH2GMx https://t.co/GBBber131D


    @the_patima Woohoo! Congrats. πŸ™‚


    @the_patima And you are definitely an international speaker. You’ve now leapfrogged me, young Padawan!


    Oh! Just realised the @pivotallabs meetup I’m speaking at is open for registration. Jan 9 in Sydney. 😊
