Does anyone have a virtual titration they like to use with students? I'm out for over a week coming up and I need my AP chem class to do one virtually for now so they don't stall out.

Why does the numeric value of a base 64 string change when you add 'A's at the beginning, aren't they 0?
"AAk" -> 9
"AAAAAk" -> 2
(Both are supposed to be 36?)

Good people of the fediverse, your opinion please. I'm making another chess board (this one a table!) and playing with color schemes. Any of these stand out, good or bad? I'm pretty sure I want a deep red/brown background.

Sometime last year or maybe the year before somebody posted a video that added up in real time the money being spent as military fired weaponry it was mostly navy equipment.
There are a bunch of those kinds of things on YouTube, but it’s not the one I’m looking for

Seeking oh #askfedi recommendations for one-off steel fabrication jobs in Brisbane. I’m surrounded by fabricators here in Sumner but “one” is not in their vocabulary.

Is there anywhere I can hire a software engineer to work on a project for me and simultaneously teach me how they're doing it, so I can learn skills to develop the project and others myself?
How much would it cost?

Dear #askfedi,
I'm looking for a new DM.
Literally my main requirements are not using slop extrusion and having a widget that shows command output (and maybe not Wayland).

#askfedi #pnw #frogstodon #Birds #bugstodon Anyone got an id on what this nighttime visitor is?
We can hear them, but not see them
Guesses:
- tree cricket
- pacific chorus frog
- pretty sure it's not a cicada?
Whoever it is, they're quite happy in our trees. Would love to know more
