It's 2026. The terms "rockstar developer" and "ninja coder" should not be in recruitment posts. They never should have been. I can only imagine you're looking for child labour if this is an attempt to appeal.

@vivaldi.com I really like Vivaldi, but address bar ordering drives me a bit crazy. I would like history to take precedence, but often search does.

Witch's self-titled 2006 album is the quintessential stoner rock album. Just throwing that out there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5vo...

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

I commonly run into posts with fervent comments here and zero context as to what they're talking about, and it makes me feel like I'm out of so many loops.

Just found the video floating around, but didn't see it posted here yet. Here's hoping there'll be a next time :-). @friendlyrb.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUjV...

Discovered Ghosts of Glaciers today. Heavy, bleak, instrumental. I like. ghostsofglaciers.bandcamp.com/album/eternal

Do something nice to someone today, expecting nothing in return other than the joy of being a human being who cares about others ⭐

Just started listening to You're Wrong About and am horrified that @michaelhobbes.bsky.social calls Nine Inch Nails a band for eight-year-olds.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

After a few years of primarily using JetBrains IDEs, and then primarily Zed, I'm finally back home on [neo]vim. The landscape has changed considerably since, and keeping up with it all is difficult. But so too is how it has become much less work to customise via LLMs. Good to be back.

gem.coop has news! we've just released dependency cooldowns (in beta), a strong defense against supply chain attacks gem.coop/updates/4/

I always thought that the iCalendar format (.ics, et. al.) originated in iCal, but it turns out that's not true. Apple had a big hand in its overall development, but the original spec was written by folks from Lotus and Microsoft in 1998. TIL. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar

Shellflow actually looks like a real app now!

Right, time to stop sitting on the sofa watching telly and actually get back to work. #Ruby folks, I'm looking for my next client. * I wrote 👉 railsandhotwirecodex.com * I built 👉 scattergun.email * I'm on the core team of bridgetownrb.com. * More info 👉 radioactivetoy.tech

Diffs? Themes? You betcha!

This Ukrainian cover of Invaders Must Die hits harder than hell. 🇺🇦 x1914x.bandcamp.com/track/1914-s...

Hey Everyone! Just a gentle reminder that Lazy Bird tickets for Rubycon 2026 are selling fast! There is a limited number of tickets available at €149.49 until the end of February! Get your tickets here: ti.to/rubycon/ruby...

I'm looking for #Ruby or #Elixir work, can start immediately. Freelancer, getter-of-things-done, many years of experience, feel free to DM for more info. Can work worldwide. Happy to work with other languages/frameworks and devops as needed.

Re-brand! One Man Band is now shellflow.dev As I build this tool, I'm spending most of my dev time in it. This means it's becoming less of just a worktree manager for LLM tools and more of a general-purpose terminal wrapper that includes workflow tools. Still iterating and discovering new uses!

If you're using `puma-dev` (having `.test` domains and automatic HTTPS is super nice!) but want HTTP2+ support + all the benefits of caddy, I've started work on a small script/setup that provides a `puma-dev` like experience, but using `caddy`! github.com/practical-co...

I can't get enough of sadness lately. Alcest has always been a personal favourite band of mine, and sadness scratches the same itch whilst they both sound unique. #shoegaze #post-metal sadnessmusic.bandcamp.com/album/shimmer

$25 from every bag and $12 from every print sold will go directly to SouthEast Dignity Not Detention (SEDND), a powerful coalition of immigrants, advocates, lawyers, and grassroots organizations fighting to end immigrant detention in the Southeast. flagrant.bigcartel.com/category/for...

People often ask me me, "Jamie, why do you make up these interactions with strangers coming up to you and asking you things?" And I tell them: "Everyone's doing it!"

Released One Man Band 0.2.0. It's now capable enough that I'm using it to build itself alongside another project. Terminal notifications, progress, task running, and of course worktree management. Now installable via brew (my tap, for now — check instructions). github.com/shkm/One-Man...

Health Speculations Swirl As Trump Seen With Damage Numbers Above Head https://theonion.com/health-speculations-swirl-as-trump-seen-with-damage-numbers-above-head/

Watching trump presents a great argument against spoiling your children.

Time to give Ghostty another try.

Apparently, notarizing an app can take literal days the first time you do it and there appears no way to cancel old runs.

Had good experiences using Conductor but wanted more simplicity. Worktrunk is nice but I miss some GUI. So I built my own! It's a GUI git worktree orchestrator, which works with #Claude or #Opencode or whatever. More features coming... github.com/shkm/One-Man...

In Flames was 16-year-old me's favourite band. Listening today, so much nostalgia. And yet, while it's hard to put those nostalgia goggles down, I can't shake the feeling that Clayman is a top-tier album.

hey folks, i’m a rails / ruby dev with a bit over 10 years of experience professionally and i was just hit with my second layoff. looking for a new role would love to chat! #rails #ruby.

TIL from a worktree you can get the base repo's `.git` path with `git rev-parse --path-format=absolute --git-common-dir`. Add `/..` onto the end and you're back at the base repo path. Very useful for worktree startup scripts.

If only we were all so reflective as Wouter.

It’s time I crank up the search for new work to 11, because wow I really need it. Bottom line: you bring me aboard your web publishing or software team because there are many fires vying for your attention and I figure out which ones to put out first. My CV: https://jaredwhite.com/cv/ My biz […]

@primaroxas.bsky.social Hey there. May I DM you regarding a logo design? It's not within your standard packages so I'd like to discuss.

Heads up: ENV variables with dashes (-) are not POSIX compliant. They will be accepted by most shells, but not sh. So if your ENV variables are present in some contexts and not others, look here. ...and hopefully save yourself hours of puzzlement. You're welcome.

Go write something. No excuses! github.com/shkm/blurt

If C-family languages were as popular as LISP and vice-versa, would C-family users be as evangelical as LISP users? 🤔

Of the apps that I need a "wrapped" from, my bank is very low on the list. And yet, there it is!
