Reposted by georgeemily s. @emily.news · 26/04/2026i'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. 1126667

george @danforth.dev · 05/02/2026I 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? 100

george @danforth.dev · 22/01/2026I've caught myself falling into what feels like over-reliance on LLMs multiple times and had to reverse course. It is pretty scary how quickly you can form a habit of turning off your brain 061

george @danforth.dev · 17/03/2025Yes, it is immediately becoming clear to me why every “vibe coded” app I’ve seen looks more or less exactly the same 010
george @danforth.dev · 17/03/2025Will be interesting to see how this property translates to other domains of software dev, but I can’t say I’m sold on this yet. 010
george @danforth.dev · 17/03/2025Claude produces extremely generic looking CSS by default, and the level of specificity I have to give it in order to get things looking the way I want is probably more work in the end than writing the CSS myself 120
george @danforth.dev · 17/03/2025Trying 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. 210
george @danforth.dev · 09/03/2025happy My Oven Clock is Correct Again day to all those who celebrate 020
george @danforth.dev · 06/03/2025Crazy 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 010
george @danforth.dev · 04/02/2025“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. 010
george @danforth.dev · 27/01/2025The aggregate amount of compute resources wasted on JSON serde in general is likely staggering 020
george @danforth.dev · 27/01/2025Also switched somewhat recently. The lack of counts was a bit jarring at first but I’ve come to like it. I feel it encourages me to listen to albums all the way through more, and discover deep cuts more often in the way I used to 010
george @danforth.dev · 13/01/2025I have never encountered a configuration language that is not complete hell to work with. Does any exist? 010

george @danforth.dev · 17/12/2024Isnt jOOQ also technically not an ORM? It has some ORM-like capabilities but the overall design embraces the relational model. Also, with jOOQ, your database schema is not driven by classes defined in application code as would be the case with an ORM (at least every one that I’ve ever used). 120
george @danforth.dev · 16/12/2024So if a database is deployed on k8s is it automatically excluded from this category? 110
george @danforth.dev · 12/12/2024The 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 000
george @danforth.dev · 11/12/2024It’s a relatively small raise. VCs spread their money around on the off chance that one of their plays hits it big. 110
george @danforth.dev · 11/12/2024I’m 30 and Redis has been with me my entire career. These days I use it less in my job but often use it as a reference for a cleanly architected C codebase for networked services :) 010
george @danforth.dev · 10/12/2024Another sharp edge that I ran into recently: the standard technically allows repeated keys in objects (`{“a”:1,”a”:1}` is valid, e.g.), however almost no implementations allow this. Interestingly, the Postgres implementation does allow it in order to be able to serialize arbitrary SQL result sets 130
george @danforth.dev · 06/12/2024Has any music platform issued a blanket ban on AI-generated content? 030
george @danforth.dev · 05/12/2024Neovim + rust-analyzer has worked great for me. I imagine rust-analyzer can be used within emacs as well for those who prefer it 000
george @danforth.dev · 02/12/2024Rewatched 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 000

george @danforth.dev · 20/11/2024The community note wrong lol. The for loop accurately solves the integral for f(x) = const. I’m sure there are other cases too 110
george @danforth.dev · 19/11/2024One of the great things about this app is that it does not have an embedded browser 010
george @danforth.dev · 17/11/2024Working 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 010
