Well, last bit of spit and polish happened on my big fat atproto project; it's... almost ready. The only thing left is for me to actually get a good night's sleep before attempting to play hype man for my own stuff. Cryptic, isn't it?

Shiz... almost forgot about the most important part of my project: i need a support ticketing system. Go go gadget fuck my life because the last time I used any of those you could choose between OTRS and RequestTracker - and both of them are absolute code monstrosities that should be taken out back.

It is still bucketing down rain. I'm now at the point where I've carved up a few empty pop bottles to serve as make-shift water receptacles. Of course now the most leaky bits are right over my 220v inverter and fuse box so I've given them little plastic bag hats. And this is apparently going to

So right now it's absolutely bucketing down rain. The problem? My boat has been sitting in a hilariously hot and dry climate for the past few months. There's holes in my roof. They used to be taped up and weren't leaking. Now? The sun ate the tape. So. Many. Leaks. I'm out of bowls, pots and pans.

An article written by perhaps one of the most rabid W fanbois - yeah that'll be impartial. Fun fact: you can't hide user activity. W social's PDS generates a magnitude less traffic than e.g. Eurosky, or Blacksky. So yes, W is a ghost town. Whatever it is you're smoking, though, I'd like some...

Whoo dawgy! Crunch time - trying to get my atproto project done so I can be all like "oct 1 big fat reveal" hype hype - or something. I dunno. I'm the worst hype man around. Fixing last minute bugs though, that I can do!

Question for the big ATproto cheeses; suppose my PDS had a backup made 3 days ago. Suppose in the meantime I posted a lot, and then it shat the bed. I restore from my backup. What happens? If the repo changes back to a previous state, is there going to be any hilarity on the relays and appviews?

@remoteornothing.bsky.social can you stop liking and unliking and liking etc. my posts? Not sure why else you keep popping up in my notifications repeatedly for liking the same post you've already liked... that plus all the missing legal info on your site makes me feel all sorts of ways about you.

This sums up my own views towards LLM and coding agents beautifully. I'm not chronically ill, though, so for me it's mostly a case of after 30+ years just not wanting to burn out on hand-rolling every line of code.

Spicy take: people saying they want to hand-roll their code (in a professional setting) as opposed to using AI is like a mechanic going "no thanks, I'm not using that impact wrench, I'm going to use my normal wrench and elbow grease". They both work, mind you, just the mechanic with the
