This is going to sound cynical, but Americans have to stop waiting for scheduled dates to go out and protest. You can't wait for an invite to get out and then just go home. It's not a freaking birthday party.

This is going to be a fun CAD/3d printing project... by far the most ambitious thing I will have tried. Hoping to go from the unbearable ~70dBA on to bearable ~45dBA, given the thing will sit in my living room. Wish me luck 😅

How does A24 keep pumping out great film after great film. Backrooms was sooo good.

I love Nvim, but how on earth is it so freaking bad at auto-restoring sessions. Every plugin for this is riddled with bugs and quirks. They all work 80% of the time, never 100% of the time. This is like Code Editor 101 shit, how is this not built in with top-notch support... 🤦

I think I do 95% of my "web searching" through OpenCode in the terminal now. Compared to 0% two months ago.

If you had excuses for not rebasing before LLMs (e.g. conflicts are confusing, etc), that's all gone now. Merge is dead.

Figured it out... It feels exactly like talking in multiple Slack threads and DMs at once.

I gotta say, using frontier models to do long-running, deep research (e.g. on the entire codebase and org docs/chat/etc. knowledge base) is very effective.

What a boss move. This guy is the Philippine DefSec, got slipped a note from, supposedly, the Chinese delegation mid-panel, and choose to read it out loud. youtu.be/ikQbxzXmZSM

Sure would've been nice if software engineers unionized before all these AI layoffs, eh?

Using latest frontier models for regular software dev work is the LLM equivalent of the "build a $3000 gaming rig to play Minecraft".

How have I never watched 12 Monkeys (film or show). The film is great, but the show... holy shit.

Before I moved back to Canada, I was talking to a US colleague. I mentioned how US going to literal (not just trade) war with Canada seems ridiculous, until you account for a few years of the MAGA news cycle. She didn't believe me. That was almost a year ago, and we're half way there.

There is no difference between Hasan Piker and Tucker Carlson. They just target different audiences. Pick better allies.

Semi-related, I think we need to rename more web things to space things...

It's so nice to have a separate party for moderate/centrist liberalism. US really needs this, so the Dems don't eat themselves alive each election cycle.

I like how every time some random YouTuber mentions Quebec, they always point out how ridiculously good the flag is.

Cloud LLM for planning, local LLM for implementation is the way.

Is there a medical name for the condition where people talk themselves into absurdly strong opinions on meaningless things like this?

Fun times getting an eGPU to work in Nix. Took forever to figure out, but was getting eGPU -> iGPU -> eGPU -> monitor loop that capped output to 50fps. Had to get Gnome/Mutter to prefer eGPU, but only when plugged in. A few hours of banging my head against (aka learning) udev, and we're in business.

For a while there, I used to think that the problem with social media was centralization (e.g. Twitter), and Bsky solved that. These days, I think the problem is social media itself. Bsky/ATProto (mostly) solve centralization, but the end result is still a cesspool of uninformed, half-baked slop.
