Fucking January.

When It's Cold I'd Like to Die.

assert_eq!(331837854931968, count); this is nothing, but it's still a big enough number to boggle my mind and sheer scale of computing.

I can't believe I made into 2026 Forbes 30 under 30!!!!! 🥹🥹 it's surreal to work doing what I love every day, I'm deeply thankful for everything 😭💛

The Monday after Thanksgiving is one of the harder Mondays of the year. This year it will feel like a warm bath. We spent the last 4 days potty training our toddler. I can't wait to go back to work instead.

My toddler shit in the toilet today. Happy Thanksgiving.

30s me is constantly frustrated by 20s me.

Hard to describe the feeling of introducing yourself to people you already know, but only through teams. You do great work, I'm just bad at small talk.

I miss baseball. Also my christmas tree is already up. Gonna be a wild winter y'all.

You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line.

ChatGPT possesses the ability to do a bad job much faster than a human.

I wasn't a fan of either team so for this world series I was able to just cheer for baseball. And boy was it a good series for baseball.

When was the shift from sharplab.io to lab.razor.fyi and is this what I should actually be using? It seems featureful. I have been noticing UX issues in sharplab and after some digging found somebody who said lab.razor.fyi is the thing these days.

As a joke they should make them play again tomorrow lol

17th inning you gotta drink the grossest beer from the back of the fridge. A cucumber stout. A watermelon abomination.

Throughout my career I would argue that I've made a lot more money reading code than writing it.

fuck baseball

This is Tim Robinson's new Netflix show. It's really stuck in my head since watching the first episode. Sunday night HBO comedy so you know it's good. Check it out.

I find myself using the ✨ emoji so frequently in conversations right now that I'm attempting to make a keyboard macro for it. What I've found is that while it has an alt code, most of the applications I've tried to don't correctly interpret the 5 digit alt code.

Watch The Chair Company.

How can you not be romantic about baseball.

Wish I had something rant and rave about. I am now the owner of two identical keyboards but that's not interesting.

There is almost nothing I am less confident in than writing my own binary search.

2010s comedy podcast ads had me convinced Bonobos was the height of mens fashion.

wtf am I supposed to post about. there's absolutely no turmoil.

My wife and I have a vintage metal kitchen table (with some sort of composite top) that belonged to her grandparents and we've used for our entire relationship. It's small but great. This weekend we bought a larger wooden dining table and six chairs. I fear it's about to fuck up my whole life.

Seems like a pretty easy decision to stick with the Logitech mouse over the Keychron. Shame I waited so long for it. Now to return or sell...

Visual Studio 2026 represents about a year's worth of work across the Visual Studio team. If you haven't tried it, head over to visualstudio.microsoft.com/insiders/ to download it - it will install alongside Visual Studio 2022 so you can continue to use both if you like.

Neither of them have toggle for free scroll on the wheel, which is what I actually miss most about my old mouse. But now that I've tasted the ergonomic vertical mouse, there's no going back. I bought my MIL a vertical mouse today. I think it will great for her.

The only thing the Keychron has over the Logitech is a second scroll wheel to support horizontal scrolling, which is important to me. But the Logitech has a nicer feel and is a little beefier. The Keychron has a higher polling rate by I can't delude myself into thinking that matters for me.

With as large of a body as both of these mice have, it's ludicrous that neither of them has a storage slot for the USB receive in the mouse itself.

After almost 3 weeks in the mail, the new mouse arrived today and it's not a slam dunk, which is a bummer. There's trade offs between the Keychron and the Logitech, and I got used to the Logitech and like some things about it. I'll give it some time.

I miss the unearned confidence of my 20s.

My now 2 year old is kicking my ass.

Motion City Soundtrack's new album feels a lot like Green Day's Warning. Not in terms of sound, but in terms of how it stands against their existing body of work. That comparison isn't bad (I love Warning), but I don't think it's great (Warning is bland).

Oh, and for anybody who is still listening, the keyboard is just a keyboard now. I still like it. I'm glad I made the change. But the hobby rotation has moved on. What can I hyperfocus on next?

With the release of VS 2026 Insiders, the code that I am most proud of in my career is no longer shipping. It was making a text box wider.

The worst part about ordering anything from Keychron has been waiting for it. I placed an order on 9/10 and it just arrived in Los Angeles today. Curious how many more days it will take to get here.

Now more than ever I know that the code should be written as dumbly as possible. Code should be written for reading.

The best part of playing silksong at launch has been talking about it with others. Everybody’s taken different paths and found different things in different ways. Everybody’s cagey about saying too much because nobody’s progress has been the same. Wonderful experience.

Well I found fucking The Phantom and I have no idea if I should be here yet.

Until further notice, happy hour will be known as sad hour. But don’t worry, alcohol is still involved.

nobody's happy and everything is terrible.

I keep doing "light work" at night instead of playing Silksong. This is incorrect and should be rectified.
