TW: Depression and suicide Over the years, I've lost five people to suicide. Friends, training partners, people I loved. Today it is eight years to the day since I lost one of my very best friends, Christian. I miss him terribly. 1/9

When men refer to themselves as "alpha males", I hear that in the context of software, where alpha versions are unstable, missing important features, filled with flaws, and not fit for the public.

ChatGPT advocates, please understand: many times when people ask you a question, it is because they are valuing your experience and perspective. Essentially, you are part of their community. When you answer with a ChatGPT screenshot, you are telling them that they are not a part of yours.

Found a @kevlin.bsky.social at Düsseldorf Airport!
A digital display screen showing a bilingual message in German and English about the waiting times at the security checkpoint, which is cut off and because to the right, a Windows network settings prompt is hiding a quarter of the screen, asking if the computer should be discoverable on the network.

One of my favourite things on social media is when a man (yes, it's always a man) severely underestimates someone (usually a woman) and gets schooled accordingly. The comments are *chefs kiss* This is right up there withthe dude calling out Gail Simone, the Punisher writer.

Post the first video game you ever played
A screenshot of the classic video game Pong, featuring a black background with two vertical paddles on opposite sides of the screen. A small square ball is moving between them, and the score displays "0" for the left player and "1" for the right player. A dotted vertical line separates the two halves of the screen.

1/This one's for my fellow #developers. Let's talk about Entity Framework; if you have the option to use Dotnet Core/EF for your business logic/data layers - including Postgres/MySQL on Linux - you really should take a hard look. EF + Linq gives you an amazing degree of control over your data.

I've often hesitated to join podcasts despite frequently speaking at conferences, possibly due to the format difference. It's time to try something new! I'll be recording with @davidgiard.bsky.social's Technology and Friends podcast this Tuesday. Check it out here: www.youtube.com/@technologya....

Mediene er redde – bl.a. pga tiår med svartmaling – for at høyresiden skal kalle dem venstrevridde og at de "har en agenda". Derfor lar de ofte være å gå dem i sømmene Da bør man spørre seg: dersom du er redd for reaksjoner fra én politisk side, hvilken av sidene bør du være ekstra kritisk til?

What a world we live in. When literal facts are labeled as misinformation. Wild guess, but maybe it's because people don't understand the message and then just reports based on what they feel? We are truly in a post-factual society.

So which Outlook is the new one?
A Windows system dialog box titled 'Select an app to open this .ics file'. It shows two options: an 'Outlook (new)' option under 'Default app' and another Outlook option labeled as 'New' under 'Suggested apps'. Both options are accompanied by the blue Outlook application icon.

On Telegram I'm now getting spam messages almost every day, but I have to pay for Telegram Premium if I want to restrict who can DM me. And even if I pay, other premium users can force their way into my inbox. Not good.
Screenshot of the "Messages" settings page in Telegram. The title reads "Who can send me messages?" with two options below: "Everybody," which is selected, and "My Contacts and Premium users," which is grayed out with a lock icon. A note underneath explains that users can restrict messages from people who are not in their contacts and don't have Telegram Premium.

I guess Spotify either just introduced badges, or someone removed a block in some email queue...
Screenshot of a series of emails from 'Community Mailer' , all timestamped at 12:52 PM. Each notification announces earning a 'Registered for X years' badge on The Spotify Community, with badges ranging from one to nine years. The notifications appear to be sent to a user named henrikse... The notifications are listed in no particular chronological order, starting with eight years, followed by six years, one year, three years, five years, two years, nine years, seven years, and four years.

Using an AI while programing is like pair programming with a drunk old senior dev. They know a lot, give pretty good advice, but I have to check everything. Sometimes their advice is outdated, sometimes it's nonsense, and other times it's "Ah, yes, sorry about that..."

People hiding scrollbars in the UI and only showing them on hover, can you stop? Please? Just spent too long trying to figure out how to get Docker Desktop to download an update. The button was below the fold and no scrollbar to be seen. I'm sure it looked great in Figma, but the experience is bad.

So, in Camtasia you can now make AI avatars for your videos. Because I've always wanted to be welcomed to the team by a guy that looks like the job has depleted his soul to the point where he has stopped looking both ways when crossing the street, hoping he might get lucky one day. #enshitification
An AI-generated avatar of a man with a blank, lifeless expression, wearing a light checkered shirt, set against a softly blurred background of office greenery. The text overlay reads 'WELCOME TO THE TEAM!' in bold, contrasting the avatar's dispassionate gaze, which seems devoid of any genuine enthusiasm or soul.
