html should've been a lisp

btw all the audiophile headphone reviewer people who recommend these are absolutely right they won't change your world or anything but it does help quite a bit especially if you wear headphones for hours on end

the more javascript/typescript i write the more i get radicalized towards the lisp-style "end parens goes on the last line with the content" too many lines are wasted for just the ending }) of blocks like .map(x => { /*...*/ }) when like going compact would just take a little used to

sqlite is so insane sometimes i can't believe it's the best database

yay i'll be deploying using nixos

come play unitedctf ctfd.unitedctf.ca

figuring out that what i needed was nixgl was a pain but turns out it's pretty conveniently integrated in home-manager

idk what to think about the PLC announcement. it's kind of exactly what I expected. nothing really new? my enthusiasm about it depends on how many developers are full-time there, that's what actually matters towards solving tech problems

it's virji isn't it

i wish there was a desktop (linux) music player as good as symfonium is on android

i think bitbucket.status.atlassian.com is lying to me

are my preferences just that out of tune with the general population cause i just do not get how xedra is one of the more niche artists i listen to. i have like 20% of the scrobbles for xedra on lastfm (not accounting that it's an overloaded name), it's just really easy music to listen on loop

i came up with interface{*A;B} and thought it was disgusting and there had to be a better way so i googled it... and nope that's like the correct way to do this???? that's insane how does go make a function which is effectively an instantiation of `map` have more complicated typing than haskell 😭

thanks go docs for recognizing this one but you didn't really need to tell me that statement kind of describes go as a whole

fuck me. foiled by go's lack of generics on methods yet again

the (work)day is my enemy

im kind of baffled at whoever (i dont remember the name of the company) decided to sponsor @hack and have them like repeatedly give thanks to this company for printing their shirts and the shirt having the most quickly degrading print ever

our infra would probably be more stable if we just ran the docker compose we have for development but in prod too

i hate gorm so much

damnit how did this one happen

i always thought it was weird that we didn't have like any dependencies declared and just let services go into crash loops when the database went down or whatever turns out kubernetes just has no way to declare dependencies between services???? like it's just not a thing you do???? that's insane

hate that i have to type from collections import defaultdict every time i wanna use defaultdict it's crazy that there's like frozenset and memoryview imported by default but not defaultdict

i would assume that the advantage of microservices is that it's not unreasonable to just rewrite the service with more design space knowledge when new requirements arrive that don't fit great so it's crazy to me that seemingly companies do not ever do that and still tower on tech debt in services

installing my terminal with home-manager was such a mistake

I think what irks me so much about the "working on plc would be a bad use of engineering time" argument is like. it would be true for most companies. but the PBC part of Bluesky PBC means something! their mission isn't to run a social network, it's to develop decentralized technologies.

guy onboarding the new intern: "malheureusement on a bitbucket"

every time im back at on a device i havent used in a while bsky dot app is like You're Deactivated and i stupidly click reactivate forgetting that it's fine and correct that im deactivated on my old pds cause i migrated and i should in fact just be logging out and back in

yep im back at work you know what that means Posts About Go

any sufficiently complicated Go program contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Common Lisp.

ovh 😭

huh this is actually a pretty interesting concept

the girls don't seem to appreciate me calling their adeptness at video game movement "phooning out"

cool, niri has a logo now (among other things)

quebecsec is always so fun

the humidity is killing me i hate summer

it's always seeing these that make me really think im back in quebec

woke up to a power outage today... not so fun when i have so much planned

sound of silver talk to me

i like the idea of putting comments in my blog posts, that only people who open up the editor or browser devtools will see. little extra bits for the real ones. like alt text on webcomics

i'll be willing to finish did:fast completely on my own if i had any reason to believe people will actually benefit. otherwise? im not doing it unless someone pays me at this point

i hope i do more than just make a few people read the fastpay paper

just a warning don't follow expecting decentralization discourse I'm probably pretty much done with that. if I work on decentralized stuff again it's likely to not be atproto

did:plc Considered Harmful merkletr.ee/fast

was planning to add more to this blog post but i'll just release as-is i think

meow2, moew5, meow2.2, meow2.3 when does it end

watching lazarus cause i heard floating points worked on the soundtrack and what other reason do you need to watch an anime really

sometimes i wonder why i bother pretending 300 characters of rambling above an album will make people more likely to listen to the music i post this goes especially so for this album, for which i think going in blind was definitely part of what made me like it so much from the first time i heard it
