In my head TGV will always be an acronym for "Très Grande Vitesse"

Being the Plex Server owner should get you the same treatment as being like a D-Day veteran

I watch a lot of walking videos in Seoul and nearly every one features the freeway they turned into a river because it's awesome and they can't stop talking about it. Even better than the High Line. youtu.be/Ltn2E8zfWOA?...

Watching a new movie and every single line of dialogue feels LLM-flavored.

I suspect Elon is pulling strings to shut down Anthropic on the day of the SpaceX IPO. www.anthropic.com/news/fable-m...

There is a French guy on YouTube who reviews American passenger trains and I assure you there is nothing in your life that you love as much as this guy loves Amtrak.

Fun fact from @elenoam.bsky.social: while Mexico City did eliminate minimum parking requirements in 2017, it still strongly encourages not just parking but ALSO inaccessibility by strictly limiting the number of stories while specifically exempting a barely sunken parking level from this limit

Fable showed me a neat way out of a database modeling question that I've been stuck on for two weeks. Like, a genuinely useful idea that I had not even considered but works perfectly.

Could be us. Was us. Overhead single wire trams were invented in the United States.

This is a valid MD5 checksum.

Today in profiling: a value that I thought was a simple string was actually a string slice of an entire csv row, and using it as a map key kept the entire contents of all csv rows from being gc'd. Which added up to a lot.

Sometimes I have flashes of insight so brilliant I amaze myself. I don't have to fit my laptop in my small camera bag, I can just out my small camera bag inside the laptop bag.

Once upon a time we had hundreds of people sign up for developer accounts to request API keys for our mapping/directions services so they could cheat at Pokémon Go.

Traveling back in time to 1986 to tell everyone this is what state of the art user interfaces look like in 2026.

Can't they make the hoods lower. Safety considerations aside it's just ugly. Please make an electric 1996 Tacoma extended cab.

Bluesky: AI is a useless stochastic parrot and will vaporize every water molecule on the planet. Every professional developer I know: The old world is dying and the new world struggles to be born.

I might stream Let's Plays but it's just me writing code.

I complain a lot about software, but Gyroflow is pretty amazing.

Trying out the Moment camera bags, they had the 4L and 2L sling bags as a discounted bundle.

I tried to watch Neon Genesis Evangelion but 90's anime women are, uh, a little problematic, and makes it difficult to enjoy.

I don't have emotional availability for Fable right now, Claude. You always do this.
