i've never read Baudrillard. i just know about the basic outline of his arguments from memes. i'm hoping that, however distorted it is by the time it reaches me, his essential point remains intact.

I rarely hear about #IPFS anymore. Seemed like a cool tech that maybe got co-opted by a bunch of the web3 stuff a few years back? Is it still an active project? Any good applications out there?

Trying out “vibe coding” building a static site generator. I hate writing CSS so it seemed like a good thing to try it on. First impression is that it’s extremely annoying if you have a specific vision of what you want things to look like.

Crazy how you can listen to an album when it releases and be underwhelmed, then revisit it like 2 years later and be like wtf this is amazing

“Deleting” 18F is the exact opposite of what you’d do if what you want is government efficiency. The alternative is farming projects out to the likes of Deloitte/Accenture who will charge like $200/hr per new grad webdev they throw at a project.

I have never encountered a configuration language that is not complete hell to work with. Does any exist?

It’s kind of amazing how humanity collectively built the most comprehensive and accessible information repository of all time, and then a handful of people decided to let loose a bunch of broken robots to stochastically pollute it for no clear reason whatsoever

The new SDL3 GPU API looks super nice. Very excited to be able to write compute shaders on macOS without using Metal. Looking forward to giving it a try

Has any music platform issued a blanket ban on AI-generated content?

Rewatched Annihilation yesterday. The soundtrack is so good, especially at the climax scene. Can’t think of many other movies that put music in the foreground like that to the point where it’s almost difficult to differentiate between soundtrack and sound effect

Donald Knuth on the rewards of computer programming
Computer programs are fun to write, and well-written computer programs are fun to read. One of life's greatest pleasures can be the composition of a computer program that you know will be a pleasure for other people to read, and for yourself to read.

Computer programs can also do useful work. One of life's greatest sources of satisfaction is the knowledge that something you have created is contributing to the progress or welfare of society.

Some people even get paid for writing computer programs! Programming can therefore be triply rewarding on aesthetic, humanitarian, and economic grounds.

Working on a project involving 3D graphics recently has really pushed my intuitive understanding of linear algebra. Kind of funny that I feel way better at this stuff now than I did when I was studying physics and math in college

The HL2 documentary is a great window into what its like to lack the technological tools to fulfill your artistic vision, and having to invent them along the way. One of the coolest aspects of working with digital media IMO www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCjN...
