Maths and philosophy graduate, just here to have a terrible time

the blogsitter called the blog owner and said "everything's great, but can i cover up the creepy clown jpeg next to the dashboard? it's kinda freaking me out" the blog owner got quiet and then said "take the blog and leave the website right now. i don't have a creepy clown jpeg"

@kontextmaschine has been confirmed deceased after someone called for a welfare check following him going MIA for a week. Rest easy, fellow traveler.

H/t @selentelechia on Twitter:

Ah, strange to slowly figure this out from memes after the fact. That is really sad :( I imagine for a lot of newer folks here he may not be well known, as he mainly wrote a personal diary-style blog for the last few years, but @kontextmaschine is a long time 'community member' (whatever that means) who has been a fun, thoughtful, and very unique writer and friend for a lot of us. I will miss you, and many of us here will remember you. You will always be 'one of us', like we all are, and that mattered to many.

Jason Anderson

British artist Jason Anderson creates colorful abstract paintings composed of pixelated swatches of pastel-toned oil paint. Up-close, the artist’s paintings look like blocky layers of shapes and color; but, from afar, his scenes—featuring cityscapes, roads, trains, and marinas—are revealed.

Anderson began his career as a stained glass apprentice, where he worked on restoring the windows of cathedrals. He soon progressed onto designing the glass murals himself, where he learned how to break down subject matter into “jigsaws” of colored sections. This approach still shines through in his paintings today—complex scenes are brought to life with simple shapes and careful consideration to hue and tone.

the "hot network questions" thing is amazing. Make sure poorly phrased unanswerable questions waste as many people's time as possible.

came for an explanation of what the python error i googled means, stayed for the discourse and posting
