the expedition 33 artbook is actually incredible wtf

work has been super busy so I had basically no time to write on the other hand, now i have a lot of material on managing managers and working in resource-constrained environments so i might just do that

which one of you trained the LLMs to use `ast.literal_eval` as a Python JSON parser and also can you please stop doing that

i bought a macro lens, it’s so over for you all

begging developers of self-hosted apps to learn there are design systems beyond Android 5 era Material UI

35 months into 6 months away from AI taking my job and Google's own LLM can't write a Terraform expression that disables soft delete in object storage on Google's own cloud platform 👍

replacing a running Linux system with NixOS over SSH crescentro.se/posts/ssh-ni...

nixos is really cool until you have to place a jpeg and a html file into a directory accessible by a web server, at which point 20 condescending nerds with anime avatars converge on your location to smugly lecture you about derivations, the nix store and overlays in cryptic 5-word sentences

Thinking about that time the My Little Pony comics, of all things, absolutely bodied Scott Adams.

Taylor Swift does physical airgap network segregation. You work in cybersecurity and sext your followers on Discord. Who is the real professional here?

having purchased a ultrawide screen to make better use of Niri, I can't really say that my life is any better or worse than it was before

audiophilia is just astrology for middle class white men, except at least the positions of the planets are objectively measurable and real whereas audiophiles can't even hear the things they are arguing about

ashamed to admit using swift playgrounds on my ipad for prototyping is actually… moderately fun

having to learn about the yearly plex data breach from the news while i'm on holidays is always fun www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit...

zoomer at work asked me what is "yolo" and if i can give her an example by using it in a sentence

the greatest joy in life for me is skill building and I can’t imagine not having that. It’s unimaginable to my mind to want to immediately give up a craft because a tool exists. Were you doing it for the craft or were you doing it for validation?

can someone check in with anthropic ceo to see how this is going? just want to make sure we're still on track for our Q3 deliverable of 90% of all code being written by AI

i wish there was a middle ground of deploying web apps that sits somewhere in between "here's a $10 VPS, good luck" and "here's a proprietary system that locks you into our cloud offerings, 1 service is $20, egress is $15 per 100GB, no you can't set up budget limits"

had every intention of writing about marrying Python with Rust for data engineering, but that will have to wait a bit because the gods want me to suffer. www.crescentro.se/posts/python...

friendly reminder for those who may need it. checking permissions on the front end only and hiding routes you don't want the user to access is not securing your app

i think i'd like bluesky much more if it did not randomly show me naked gay dudes and furry porn despite me never interacting with either type of content (which is not always labeled either)

i think achieving world peace is probably going to be easier than successfully posting a HDR photo online

top 1 worst things people can say when you give them a gift is "aww you didn't have to". okay then. Give it back.

hello new friends, i have no new posts for you because i'm on vacation but you can have a photo of my cat instead

wait what didn't know Rutte was 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 like that, huh

maybe I do not want to know what's going on in New York

didn't expect my previous blog post to pop off as it did, and I'm very grateful for it! all the attention I gathered by posting back-to-back Rust articles will surely not be wasted by the next post having nothing to do with Rust and instead it being about the nightmare of HDR photo formats 😁

Oh youre jacking off to the sabrina carpenter sexy dog pic? Boring. Ill instead be jacking off to the album covers of Schubert , and Strauss

TIME TRAVELER: The future has artificial intelligence?! MICROSOFT: Yes! You can ask it to reformat text, or write cod- TT: So when I see a bug, I can ask AI to fix it? MS: Well … TT: Surely, I can at least ask for a workaround, right? MS: ...would you like to see a picture of a puppy made of celery?

if i never hear the words "ground news" again in my life it will be too soon

i think achieving world peace is probably going to be easier than successfully posting a HDR photo online

this is quite possibly the greatest sequence of words written by anyone anywhere this year, possibly this decade

gotta be real, some of my finest work right here

the imagemagick manual has a "form filling" section and i just want to ask that you reply if you ever used this method to fill out a form prior to seeing this skeet, because i want to firmly shake your hand and then ask what the fuck is wrong with you

hehe

10 years ago @vlambeer.com put a frankly ridiculous amount of trust in me, a young idiot, to help with a small piece of their incredible game, for which I will be eternally grateful and TODAY you can get a LIMITED RUN COPY of Nuclear Throne for YOUR NINTENDO SWITCH at an AFFORDABLE PRICE!
