I feel like I've got some djinni curse because I absolutely love the idea of Effect but every single time I go to try experimenting with it again I get lost because apparently yet again I'm trying to do the one simple thing that somehow doesn't have any docs

Things that don't mean you're insecure: ✅ taking selfies ✅ posting about your successes ✅ asking for help when you need it Things that do mean you're insecure: 🛑 submitting personal information over a http request

Listening to the Dungeon Crawler Carl audiobooks and one of my first thoughts was that the narrator sounded like Patrick Warburton. You'll never guess who shows up in audiobook #6 🤯

The urge to start a podcast is equivalent to the urge to create a DSL* * (a domain-specific language, which is something the most genius and widely loved programmers do, everybody's stoked when I do it)

Rereading the Software Engineers Guidebook by @gergely.pragmaticengineer.com and it’s illuminating seeing what stands out now being relatively newer at a company than when I first read it as a tech lead and several years of experience at a company already. Lots of good advice, strongly recommend

Sometimes I worry that I've spent too much time being interested by languages themselves and not enough about what to actually build. Especially with all the AI going on I think for better or worse language choice is going to matter even less in the near future

This blog is SO good at pointing out what should have been obvious about AI for coding (Copilot and others) These tools are good for re-creating whatever they’ve been trained on. They are not what will create the next, better generation of frameworks, libraries, technologies.

the best part of mobile dev is the build times and constantly switching between 4 different languages

Me, after finishing Wind and Truth: "wow, Michael Kramer narrated pretty much every book in the cosmere! That was awesome but it'll be fun to hear some new narrators and different voices after hearing the same guy for so long" The literal next audiobook I decide to listen to, somehow:

The Shadow of what was lost
Performed by Michael Kramer

How is it 2025 and I still can't just plug in my hard drive into my _brand new_ car to play movies in the back for my kids. It had hdmi and miracast but I need some additional adapter to use my own hard drive 🤬
