My entire adult life

I’m obviously not the first person to make this joke, but I’m sitting through a software company presentation right now and I can’t help it.

Butlerian Jihad when?

Me, looking at the odds companies send customers tariff refunds.

I’m tempted to say that Java development sucks donkey balls, but I think a donkeys balls deserve better than this.

Who the fuck sends this much email? I haven’t genuinely sent an email to a person I know that was just a conversation in DECADES!

Family of four with elementary school age kids trying to decide where to go out to eat for lunch.

Watching the Percy Jackson movie and damn this night time scene has the ugliest bokeh I’ve ever seen in a movie.

People holding lapel mics with their hands and talking too closely into them are a blight on internet video culture.

Everybody working at Wingstop today.

What if I told you it doesn’t fucking matter how much they do or don’t pay in taxes, they’re still human beings who deserve to be treated with respect?

Find all of the available parameters for the touch command at this convenient government mirror for the Bash Reference Manual.

8yo: Dad, your natural place in the home is in the office. Like an iguana in a glass case. 😂😂

Ordered this and saving it for a celebratory drink he’s finally gone.

I love it when something goes wrong in some code that deployed to production, and you raise your hand and say “hey nerds, I think I borked this up.” But then your team looks at it tells you you’re crazy and that this thing is completely unrelated and the borkedness isn’t due to anything you did.

My wife asks me sometimes why I don’t just use my phone as an alarm clock, but I will die on the hill that general purpose computing devices do not make good alarm clocks. There are just way way too many ways for them to unexpectedly not do the ONE thing you were counting on them doing.

Do I know anyone that users their Mac laptop in clamshell mode with an external monitor and has replaced their fingerprint reader prompt with a Yubikey? I want to use clamshell mode like that but having to type my password all the time sucks.

This is a hell of a talk. I’ve never watched a conference talk and immediately felt an urge to pick up a pitchfork and join a digital mob. “Size the means of computation!”

I really do love how intentional he is about enjoying pillows. He doesn’t just flop on them or tolerate their presence, it feels like he arranges just just so like a person would.

What an ignorant fucking asshole.

Fun fact, that space is still not deep enough for how far my jaw just dropped at how cool this is.

Watching Star Wars Episode IX with my 8yo son: First Order to Final Order ALREADY? 😂

I laugh every time I’m reminded SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE is a real term that we use in real conversations and it’s a thing that people talk about.

I was finally pressure to into trying Claude at work. I tried it on a React page since I’ve never done React before. We spent two hours going back and forth trying to center a couple table headers and couldn’t get it done. We’ve both given up and I’ve lost the will to live.

There is a new autistic barbie out, but no one is talking about her mother, undiagnosed computer engineer barbie about to get the surprise of her life when she starts to argue with the evaluator that these are all normal childhood behaviours that she had when she was the same age.

I am calling for a complete and total boycott of the Mercator projection in all news stories about Greenland until every member of the American public has seen this

I don’t need to watch a video of a woman being shot to know that Fox News and the regime are lying about it. I can see their lips moving.

There is political juice in getting on the Fuck ICE train. I think a national campaign can be built around it and talking about all the social sickness it causes and the sicknesses that brought it about. Don’t talk about unity. Confront the anti immigration ideology head on and defeat it.

I don’t. These things should not exist. Every dime of money that went into creating these damn things should have gone to funding public transit and bike and waking infrastructure. It’s not just that there’s no need for these to exist, they are antithetical to a well functioning, livable city.

Read to the top if you’re not already familiar with the Rob Pike AI stupidity (the AI being stupid, not Rob), but I will say this: “They’ve given their agents full access to a computer environment” After a very brief search, I think I found the bug.

This thing is so fucking sexy. Which obviously means we won’t be getting it in the US. So frustrating.

Disagree. We were no longer a constitutional nation when the executive decided it could feed congressionally created departments to the wood chipper on a whim and Congress decided to do nothing about it. We are here because we’ve had a dictator for a year now and Congress has done nothing.

me every single day

My reading buddy.

My perfect business idea is to find an extremely old building up on a mountain somewhere and open a combination whiskey library and actual library.

This tram is about to slingshot around the sun to go back in time and save the whales.

I just want to thank this cartoonist for putting Sebastian Gorka in this one. An oft forgotten and under appreciated, but high performing piece of shit.

Tesla: Soon, your car will drive itself. Garmin: Hold my beer.

fuck DBA

My son (8) made this book mark for me, and as a former helicopter mechanic that loves reading and has worked very hard to instill that love in my kids, this is the sweetest goddamn thing anyone has ever given me.

Bath time for the little gremlin.

RFK junior didn’t swim in shit contaminated water. RFK Junior IS the shit contaminating the water.

I’m in the middle of a meeting. I wish it would just chill for a few minutes.

Ooof. Applies to the runners you stood up in your own infra.

I love using Gmail from Chrome to mark emails from the Chrome team as Spam.

A FIFO queueing system. First in Fuck Off.

I really enjoy trying out new coffee brewing methods. This ceramic pour over feels nice and hefty.

I want this cat. He would make my life hell and I would love him anyway.
