I put a video for japanese listening practice in youtube and I got hit by the fucking auto translated audio track Will this ever stop or are we softlocked in the bad ending route

I was having issues getting my ST7789 to work with the esp32 c3 so I asked the clanker to find the issue and fix it. It did not fix it and insisted on a handrolled shitty implementation. I found the solution in an old forum post. Basically downgrade the board driver and use a specific pin config.

Set theoretic types for erlang when

Am I the only one that feels very inclined to ignore a job offer email if it's sent by a recruiting app? It may be a legitimate offer for a legit good position but I see "This email has been sent to you through hireEZ" in small muted letters and I feel a primal urge to nope tf out

Some thoughts about recent article by @charity.wtf about using LLMs for generating code (I do not call it "writing") hauleth.dev/post/review-...

LLM claims without evidence can be dismissed without evidence

This podcast changed my life

I feel like I can validate ideas faster than ever now, but I'm as slow as I've always been when it comes to implementation

I had to replace the pressure booster pump in my house and it was supposed to be a quick replacement but I spent the entire freaking day because I wasn't able to purge all the air in the pipes Software engineering is easy in comparison to this shit at least the compiler tells you what's wrong

Expectation vs reality

I'm considering writing a blog post about how Expert and the other LSPs do code intelligence because it's not obvious all the ways in which Elixir is hard to deal with And also because I'm currently deep into reworking Expert's indexer for performance and accuracy and all this is fresh in my head

I absolutely hate when an idea is simple at a high level but the actual implementation is a mess and I don’t see many ways around it I can see the rot building around it a few weeks from now

Writing ad-hoc schema based parsers brings me a kind of joy I don't find while solving other kinds of problems

The full collection came in good conditions and the text has furigana so it's all good

I love getting 50 dependabot notifications every monday

You ask engineers to not mix business and presentation logic and they lose their minds

I'm checking out a website to buy stuff from Japan auctions, I wanted some cheap and easy to read manga to help me practice reading 日本語 and see if the items would actually get delivered I got a used 7 volume collection for ¥350 but the shipping + customs is ¥15000 so fuck me I guess

Pretty funny and annoying that for an electronics project I have the smallest and cheapest microcontroller I can buy is an ESP32 which is totally overkill for what I need Anything less powerful or smaller is actually more expensive

I find AI is great at trivial tasks, if I use it as a goblin I tell to do mundane tasks it works But as soon as I need something complex it just fails miserably, and I tried a lot. Writing small tools the goblin can call to iterate helps but there's a ceiling.

After several weeks of work, kitchen is finished(except for the paintjob)

I got to a Stripe payment screen and where it used to default to USD it now defaulted to MXN because I guess any country below the US border is fucking Mexico for Stripe too

A former coworker with 8 years of #ElixirLang experience is looking for work. I can vouch for him being a careful, thorough engineer, and a real "manager of one." If he builds something, you can be confident it'll be solid and well thought out. Reach out here: www.linkedin.com/in/kylevsteg...

Seeing more projects realize ProseMirror/CodeMirror are the better options and that the initial setup complexity is very well worth it over other easier/opinionated alternatives warms my heart. They're amazing pieces of engineering.

Most of my appliances are now electric and it costs the same if not a bit less than when I had gas appliances. On top of that the oven and the water heater seem to dissipate way less heat into the ambiance which I appreciated during this hellish summer. What a time to live in.

Windows is a joke that overstayed its welcome

I’m spending my 29th birthday struggling with a kitchen faucet leak, cool

Today I tried to let an llm iterate and finish some work I started several months ago but didn't get to finish because of its complexity without rewriting everything. After burning through several hard earned dollars, it failed at the same stage I did.

The first release candidate for Expert is out! You can read the announcement here: expert-lsp.org/the-first-re... #ElixirLang

Washing machine broke so NAS is postponed until further notice

Funny how people are against psychotic fucks running things on paper, then voluntarily use codex

I don't wish this heartburn to my worst enemy

try to make small change problem too fundamental concern

code is flagged as unused, gets removed code gets added again in a new change refactor flags it as unused code gets added again in a new change refactor flags it as unused code gets added again in a new change refactor flags it as unused code gets added again in a new change refactor flags it as unu

Papers and thesis are so full of slop it's unbelievable. If it's not 50 cites per sentences, it's 50 pages wasted on explaining the history of the fried shrimp, I don't give a shit tell me what your contribution is already holy fucking shit how can academics be so dense.

I'm deep into parsing lately and looking for ways to improve tracing of the parser because it can get to a point where it's hard to track what it's doing This paper seems interesting in that regard: Visualizing Visual Parser Executions by Gennaro Costagliola, Mattia De Rosa

More people should use jj, git feels so primitive and wrong after being spoiled by jj I've run into situations where I start to pile up commits, then realize I should split into multiple PRs and with jj it's rather easy, but in git it's an absolute nightmare unless you use 3rd party tools

I see I see the issue now I now have the full context I now understand the full picture This is a key insight This is very interesting behavior The key observation is

I spent an ungodly amount of time when working on Sourceror figuring out overlapping edits for code mods and reading the LSP spec I see Microsoft just gives up: Text edits ranges must never overlap, that means no part of the original document must be manipulated by more than one edit.

I hope once I finish this damn kitchen renovation I've been working on for months now I will be more compelled to cook some healthier stuff. Until now I have never lived in a place with the tools nor the space to cook something decent, it's depressing to make space every time you have to cook.

An official VSCode extension for Expert LS has been released. You can be a 30th person to download it. marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa... #elixir

There is no connector for my electrical conduit and the light fixture, all the commercially available options look horrible. Then I remembered I have free will and a 3d printer. The connector is printing right now.

Adding features is so easy compared to making the system properly stable, in particular when it must run in any environment

I have access to most premium models via Copilot because I do OSS so I'm trying to make use of it, but I can't get it to not piss me off. I don't know what I'm missing, no matter how detailed the prompt it always produces crap and I end up doing things myself

I was cleaning the bathroom drain because it overflowed every time I took a shower. The culprit? A .32 revolver round stuck in the drain. What the fuck.
