Mmm something about this commenter screams AI to me… doesn’t actually have any or commit to any repos but comments on a bunch of others about MCP settings for Zed?

once again, if tylenol caused autism, america would have a better rail system

It's really annoying when companies/websites will still include you in their marketing email campaigns even when, at the time of sign up, you did not opt in to receive said emails...

TIL there’s a term for those of us who need 3 drinks. Apparently we’re beverage goblins 🤣

Wasabi flavored seaweed snacks are too addicting 😆

need people who wear shoes inside to understand that if you enter a shoeless household and ask someone if it’s ok to keep your shoes on and they say yes they aren’t letting it slide they just mentally committed to mopping the entire apartment the second you’re gone

First time co-hosting a meetup! If you're in NYC Sept 18, come to our first Coffee & Code! We're aiming to start hosting meetups regularly once again!

This years Gophercon has been the best time I’ve had at conference. Made some great friendships and got to meet a ton of fellow gophers. Looking forward to next year with Gophercon in Mexico #gopherconinmxorbust

Excited to attend #gophercon tomorrow. Woot woot!

So I've been doing deliveries on GrubHub, HungryPanda, and Instacart to make some money so I can pay some bills. I'm somewhat surprised none of these gig work apps actually provide any APIs for their gig workers, or any integrations with ANY accounting software.

Im exhausted after 6 months of searching for a job, getting rejected after 5-6 rounds, doing take home assignments, fighting anxiety and my adhd brain fog during live coding interviews… and almost every rejection saying “you/your experience is valuable.” Apparently not valuable enough though. /rant

Tell me this isn’t so true. #Attacked LOL

Starting to see less leetcode style interviews for technical evals, which I think is a good thing. Every company I’ve actually needed to use DSA knowledge, I was at companies that didn’t test via leetcode. The ones that did, it was never truly used on the job lol.

Every week, I see at least one headline that’s exactly this tweet.

This is the 3rd job this week a recruiter has reached out to me for where it’s less than what I made 10yrs ago as a junior developer in a LCOL/MCOL city… what is going on.

Help

Need to polish up the landing page with some images, animations and more information about what InterviewQuest is all about. But getting closer to launching https//interview.quest lol. Got a tight deadline that I promised to my girlfriend of releasing the beta by her upcoming bday 🤣

I'm not sure exactly what it is, but using Zed lately feels extremely inconsistent when trying to type fast. My vim keybinds will sometimes do random things instead, hitting tab for the auto complete showing then output something completely different.

Getting closer to a beta release to launch InterviewQuest, a little app I'm building to help me track/gamify my job search I spent way too long today doing silly things to get ready to get it out there: ✅Setting CI/CD pipelines up for deploying my ui and api's to a staging and prod env

Another rejection, but on the bright side I don’t have to rush into learning Rust anymore lol. I just want to get paid to write Go 🤣

Setubal going crazy after Portugal wins the UEFA Nations League.

I think the comfort and seat quality of a Tesla is about the same as riding on Ryanair lol.

I feel like I've been messing with trying to get auth working seamlessly way too much just to get my app out the door for my nuxt app lol. Some of it is probably user error, but I'm getting to the point where I might just write my own module to work with logto lol.

Kind of funny how you can remember some things from a long time ago but forget other things. Just helped my aunt write a sql query for some tables in a large system used for health insurance, and I haven't looked at or touched those db tables in over 6yrs lol.

First time making home made bbq sauce. Tried to add a Mexican flair to it but “task successfully failed” and ended up making a spicy habanero bbq sauce without it tasting like chipotles or guajillo chiles lol. I think it’s time to start a food blog 🤣

Me working on a solo project: “Past me was dumb to write the code this way” 🤣

*rant* I don’t need adhd meds to function or pass interviews, but it definitely makes it easier to by quieting all the noise in my brain. I really wish getting proper medical care/prescriptions wasn’t tied to employment here in the US.

Was a little surprised to see that a plugin I released for Zed last August has over 4700 downloads lol. Last time I actually checked, there were around 200 installs back in October. Are there really that many people writing permify schemas w/ Zed?

Almost done with a fun little project I’ve been cooking up. Only took 3 weeks longer than expected and having to learn a little game development 🤣

Re-listening to some Gotime episodes from 2022 thinking they came out last year… and then it dawned on me it was actually 3 years ago 😅

I don’t know where I picked up the bad habit of not tasting my food when cooking and just eyeballing everything. I feel my luck of making delicious food may run out some day 😂

It’s crazy how terrible the American health system is. Every doctors visit is just trying to extract as much money as possible without really providing treatment. My gf had a surgery done in MX, and we’ve been in contact with him since returning to the US.

It cracks me up every time I visit Mexico, regardless of the place, or how nice it is. There will be some little jankiness to the construction of the place. I’ve been in Puebla for 5 days and just noticed the hot water line for one of the bathrooms was probably forgotten when they built the apt.

Almost done building out all the basic logic on the backend for a new project…I can almost see the light at the tunnel 😅

Been going down an adhd rabbit hole of trying different auth providers the past week while building a nuxt app. Started with Descope, ended up going with Descope lol. Only went through 5 different identity providers to avoid rolling my own lol 🤦‍♂️

I didn’t realize how difficult it could be to type with a bandaid on the tip of one finger. The consequences forgetting basic safety when chopping veggies for a brief moment lol.

In the case of me not being able to find another job in tech, I might have to open a torterillia up for the JC/NYC area. Just made a whole batch of corn tortillas and now only 6 are left out of 30 lol.

I’m looking to reboot/start a Go focused meetup in the #NYC area. Thinking of every 3rd Thursday or Saturday of the month. Goal would be to share knowledge/network/provide a space for new gophers learning #golang to get live help before or after the main talks.

Had to take the chance to include a meme for my 500 server error pages. Surprisingly easy when you only need 2 scenes in an animated gif lol

Had way too much fun making this gif for a 404 page 😅

Just realized I may not have been getting emails for a job for a certain company because their portal will change any domain to .com even if you enter a different one such as .dev 🤦‍♂️

Trying to make mockups to make development easier (as in have an idea of how to structure the ui lol). It became faster to just do everything manually than to have uizard's AI do things. Especially trying to create the dark mode versions, it didn't copy the same UI with a different color scheme 😅

A big part of the problem is stupid people have been convinced by rich people that AI is God, when AI is closer to an automatic dog food dispenser.

The smell of roasting chiles in the oven is just 🤌

My girlfriend is uncomfortable walking places in NYC / JC area alone (can't really blame her either). So we decided to start building an app for people to find walking buddies (focused for pairing women / lgbtq+ together) who are nearby going in the same direction to walk together.

I’m probably the worst at taking photos for someone who’s mother is a professional photographer lol. Might also be my phone’s camera that doesn’t capture how cool Manhattan looked today with the clouds and fog rolling through earlier. Then with the moon peaking from behind the WTC.

This is my entire life

Almost a week late listening to the latest episode from @fafo.fm, but such a great episode about Kafka (but let's be real - they're all great episodes lol). One of the reasons I want to get a job (besides buying food and taking the gf out on dates) is just so I can donate to support the show 😂
