The two great disappointments of my career as a computer worker:

Awed/annoyed that I'm developing a kind of fluency in the LLM-bullshit dialect of the English language: "Oh it wrote 'a load-bearing concept', that means this bit is being used by other parts of the system"

I probably spent a lot more time than I should have on this control. I'm not a fan of the checkmark + colour label pattern, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do this better. #UI

The #BTS Hot Ones interview is genuinely enjoyable and quite funny. It looks like the interviewer went digging for some deep lore when prepping, I love how surprised/excited Jin was when he got asked about fishing! #GoshaDoesKpop

So hey… have y’all seen KPop Demon Hunters? It’s pretty great.

⏺ Perfect! I've fixed the issue by hardcoding…

I started working on a small graph UI toolkit in #ClojureScript, to act as a replacement for react-flow in Parts. For now it only has UIx components, but shouldn’t be too hard to support Reagent, too. github.com/apossiblespa... apossiblespace.github.io/minigraph/

I think the idea that has informed my thinking about LLMs as tools the most so far is that LLMs answer the question “what does an answer to this question look like?” Instead of the actual question. This has been on my mind whenever I have to engage with anything LLM-related.

Gotta love the French bureaucracy and it’s friendly copywriting

Doom Emacs randomly decided to stop opening large-ish Clojure files (we’re talking sub-100kb). Oh joy, oh happiness.

Any UK small business owners who are using Wise as their only business bank account? Thinking of switching to that (from Revolut) because of lower costs, would love some feedback!

Wow someone on bluesky has built a digital version of the “they are disgracing our neighbourhood” billboard from my Soviet childhood

Okay I guess I’ll still keep an eye on this space. @danabra.mov’s open socials piece got me interested, found out about @tangled.org through it. Exciting stuff.

Back in the 90/00s, you’d go for a Mac as a way to rebel against the beige box PC hegemony, you’d go for Lotus 1-2-3 to protest against MS Office, and you’d get a Matrox g400 to show you had more taste than the average Quake-loving 3DFx-er. What are some parallels today?

Chat, how can I access my mp3 collection on my work laptop without actually copying it over (it has bitdefender on it and I don't want to trigger any alerts). At home I guess I can just mount a network drive and point cmus/doppler at it, but what if I'm outside or travelling?

Now that I'm no longer looking for work, I should turn my Hire Me website (hire.gosha.net) into a page on my homepage I think. It's a nice collection of past projects and kind things people have said about me.

Seems like I’ve successfully optimised that part of my life: I’ve joined a small but super smart team building some seriously cool tech using Clojure!

Today is the 47th anniversary of this clearly unimprovable photo, from a story so absurd that it shouldn’t be true, but is: the day a team of workers from British Waterways pulled the plug out of the Chesterfield Canal, and all the water emptied out

A man with a spectacular 1970s mullet, wearing big wellies and a v-neck jumper over a T-shirt, looks at camera as he stands on a boat which is itself standing on the muddy bottom of an empty canal. He is holding up an enormous wooden plug on a long chunky chain

I've been taking daily instant photos of our son with my massive Mamiya RZ67. I've done this for the first year of our daughter's life, too, and now it's his turn 🥰 This is when we went to register his birth today! #mamiya #rz67

A hand holding a camera shutter release and 3 instant pictures, the topmost one showing a couple with a baby in front of a building. A camera on a tripod and a young woman with a baby in a sunny London courtyard are in the background.

We named our son Ezra, not after Mr. Pound (or anyone else famous), but now I feel like I should at least be familiar with the work. It's lovely stuff.

👧🏻👶🏻 life with two kids, three weeks in: it felt like we had child wrangling logistics figured out with our 3yo, but adding an extra kid to the mix threw that notion right outta the window. and this is with a newborn, who’s not doing much yet! well, we will figure it out.

unfortunately, circumstances are such that i have to be super conservative with money, and cancel my trip to #railsworld in amsterdam. if anyone needs a ticket, please let me know, i’m happy to transfer it for the original price 🙏

hey #typescript folks, please hit me up with links to projects that you think are genuinely good when it comes to best practices (eg type safety, code quality, testing coverage, tooling setup, etc)

i promise I’m not being held hostage and forced to write this, but the dx on modern fullstack typescript is nice??? bun, elysia, vite, drizzle, etc questioning some stuff!

chat, give me your best advice for making sure your first kid still feels loved after your second is born (and needs tons of attention as newborns do)

We didn’t have the time to go to the hospital, and he was born right there, in our kitchen. Both baby and mum are well. @tingyilai.com was absolutely incredible! Welcome to the world, little guy.

yesterday was my daughter’s first serious birthday party: we booked a softplay venue, invited all her nursery friends (and their parents), got cake, lil sandwiches, balloons, it was a lot of fun, but exhausting, too 😁
