Ah yes macOS ancient crappy buggy built in awk (and many other utilities). We'll be using sprintf() again too force 'casting' of the results of addition of two hex values back into hex. Sigh. God damn it Apple you make me dream of Linux.

I found the secret to vibe coding with a LLM (currently Claude). It's consuming two large margaritas. By the end of the second one I'm much happier, no code still does not compile, but who gives a fuck. And I have enough tequila open for a other margarita or two if needed. Overall drinking is […]

Helping Claude chat with more correct responses to it making basic dtrace script errors. Anything is better than long winded explanations about things that I already know and it's repeatedly getting wrong. 🤷‍♂️

Damn macOS with it's ancient set of badly maintained UNIX tooling. Today's adventure is wasting hours because of an awk parsing/math bug. Apple's old awk is supposed to handle hex arithmetic if it sees number strings starting with 0x lets see how well that works /usr/bin/awk ' BEGIN { a=10 […]

Setting free the last rescue Monarch butterfly (rescue from the dog trampling milkweed plants). Good luck little guy. He hung out for a short while sticking his proboscis into the cone flower, hopefully he got a snack, and then flew off.
