Trying to read a scientific article old enough to be in its midlife crisis but it’s still paywalled for some reason. It gets me mad every single time…

Paywalled public research (beyond hosting costs and fair remuneration) is idiotic and anyone doing it should be considered an enemy of democracy.

I used to judge people who copy-pasted code snippets from help forums without understanding them. If only I knew how it would evolve…

Setting up a VM of win11 on my linux desktop to make binaries of an app I'm working on... I never new I could hate Windows more than I did before. At least powershell doesn't get in the way since it aliases a lot of common commands to equivalent unix ones.

I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin... The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.

I'm done using AI
Why I'm stopping using AI for coding (and anything else) after using it earnestly for a year and coming to understand the harms it causes on personal, societal, and environmental levels.

I am afraid of the future of neovim. I truly hope the project stops associating itself with people like DHH. Should the situation stagnate, I'll go look for another editor.

Wouldn't it be messed up if there was two ways to write "é" in Unicode code points? 1) 'é' (0x00e9) 2) 'e' (0x0065) followed by '◌́' (0x0301) I mean, duh. But think of the consequences... you can write the same word with a different number of bytes, and completely different bytes.

Drawing all 16,777,216 possible 12 bit RGB colours in one 2D image, each exactly once. Pixels are mapped from the 256³ colour cube, following a three dimensional Hilbert curve, to a two dimensional Hilbert curve filling the square. so nearby colours stay close.

Reviewers noted that while Vim for Gameboy featured one of the deepest command systems on the platform, its soundtrack consisted primarily prolonged silence punctuated by occasional terrifying beeps.

Just found a webdev crime against humanity. The page systematically fits its width to 105% of the provided view. No matter how you resize your window or zoom in/out or even full screen, there will always be a horizontal scroll bar. How can you even be paid doing such a lousy job? I am so pissed rn.

A man with big eyelashe, big lips, doing a hip pop and sporting a cunty expression stands behind a man on the computer. The man on the computer says "can you please stop serving cunt? I'm trying to get these spreadsheets done." The man types dutifully while his compatriot continues to serve cunt. The computer man looks longingly at the cunt-server. He gets up and also serves cunt.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy is running upstairs in a house, looking somewhat panicked. Panel 2: he opens the bedroom door. With a blank expression, he pauses. In his thought bubble, gears are turning. Panel 3: inquisitively, he thinks to himself, “why did I come upstairs again?” Behind him, crawling up the stairs in pursuit is a horrifying ghoulish monster with a long body and many legs.

with all the debacle surrounding Github, I started to play around with multiple remotes. It's fun and kinda intuitive? It's as if git was always meant to work in a decentralised manner! Crazy, huh?

Microsoft: So we made this new "NTFS" file system. It’s very cool and you’ll need a 3rd party software to resize your partitions because our own tools are dogshit. My brother in Christ you made the file system. How can you cope out so hard on your own technology like that… Microsoft is such a joke.
