In lieu of the film business falling apart, some people have been saying to write your "fuck it" script. I don't know if that was the inspiration for this one, but it sure looks like 100 percent, pure "fuck it" to me. Which is a good thing.

'"There is no good way to say this" but to say this: AI is the antithesis of education. It is the antithesis of the future. As such, it is a kind of epistemological death, and I recognize... we have long been surrounded by such efforts; we are grieving already. And yet, we go on.'

My heroes are all dead and my enemies are fucking morons

Just updated my #Hanami app to 2.3, and thanks to @afomera.dev’s resource routes my route.rb looks so much cleaner now. A really delightful feature!

Sometimes I wish I had the active-aggressive neurospice instead of the passive-aggressive one I got

There is a special place in hell for people who start putting stuff on the checkout belt behind you before you are finished!

Trans rights are human rights, always

where my rubyists (old people) at??

10/10 take. No notes.

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

I saw someone claiming to be a 10x engineer today. 10x engineers are a mythology, based on a misunderstanding of study results, so making such a claim is risible.

Holy shit what a banger

I helped make this: ironvault.quest if anyone wants to have a cool thing to journal out their Ironsworn/Starforged campaigns in.

They literally ruin everything they touch

After getting fired from ungrateful AWS after outage where my job was to vibecode all the DNS entries to IPv6, happy to announce it's my 1st day at Azure Azure recognizes the value of vibecoding IPv6 DNS and I just force pushed my first 1m entries Now off to grab some coffee

With both Halloween and a new #PathofExile league approaching, I felt inspired to make something spooky and industrial-ish by … borrowing some voice lines from PoE‘s resident trickster god, Tangmazu. https://audio.com/rickenharp/audio/delirium

SoundID Reference frustrates me. When it works, it is awesome and makes producing music on headphones so much better. But when it *doesn’t* work, it just refuses to to output any sound at all. And the only way to get it working again is a reboot. Anybody have a good alternative? #musicproduction

Say your daily affirmations

I wrote my most personal blog post to date. It summarizes some of my personal feelings and experiences in the Ruby/Rails community. afomera.dev/posts/2025-1...

The ChatGPT subreddit is absolutely hilarious. LLMs just output statistically likely responses, and a statistically likely response to being asked to do some work is "I'll have that done by...". So apparently in some cases ChatGPT had just been telling users it'll get back to them later. 1/2

I found an interesting way to combine dry-effects and #Hanami providers to implement a tidy current_account functionality: https://ruby-heretic.com/posts/2025/10/dry-effects-implement-current-account/

FUCK SOCIAL MEDIA. MARRY BOOKS. KILL AI.

I do hope @themountaingoats.bsky.social actually do buckle about releasing this absolute gem of a song https://youtu.be/JYeeQn65qPw?si=aJSQvrOG0l-1Lf_0

Parker's in on the action, too:)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

The intersection of Obsidian, syncing and iOS is a neverending source of frustration. Currently, Advanced URI aborts with “Daily Note not enabled” when appending something to the daily note. You had one job!

This looks like I made it with AI but no, when the sumo wrestler won the big tournament today at the Royal Albert Hall he was gifted a gigantic bottle of soy sauce.

Keep it up lol

We are not equipped to have healthy reactions to everything we experience online every day. Simply not equipped, not possible. Our brain meats are being short circuited. We're going crazy trying to make sense of it. Plato's cave is on fire and full of smoke and we're choking.

When the random morning walk playlist suddenly plays “Short Change Hero” and you feel mentally transported to Pandora

I loathe this line of thinking: “I would never use AI for THING_I_AM_GOOD_AT because that is soulless. But I will happily use it for STUFF_I_SUCK_AT” Guess what, people who are good at the stuff you suck at also think it’s soulless.

Don’t make me tap the sign.

What a terrible day to have the ability to read

I only wanted to update my *cough* 14 year old *cough* portfolio site. Now I am learning how to create design systems. Hooray for #TripleAssing things!

It’s now 5 months after I started taking vyvanse, and I tried caffeine for the first time since then. Turns out, two cups of half-caffeinated coffee are now enough to turn me into a living oscillator. Back to decaf pumpkin spice it is! #ADHD #actuallyADHD

Sometimes I wish I had the sort of brain that can just pick an existing template to use for my portfolio website and be done. But alas, instead I am now learning responsive CSS layout because Mr. Brain ist just so damn picky. 😮‍💨

“I don’t want to die in here” In this essay, I will explore “Heel Turn 2” by @themountaingoats.bsky.social as a metaphor for autistic unmasking… (1/768)

Panic at the Disco! Panic at the Taco Bell!

I wrote down a few things I learned while migrating my #Hanami app from Warden to Rodauth: https://ruby-heretic.com/posts/2025/10/migrating-hanami-from-warden-to-rodauth/

I'm at the Limerence I'm at the Alexithymia I'm at the combination Limerence and Alexithymia
