same energy: when the coding agent and review agent have done their job and now it's your turn
when the washing machine and dryer are both done with their jobs and now it's your turn

Street view of Amsterdam with tram tracks in the foreground and a row of narrow, historic buildings on the right. People are walking and cycling along the sidewalk, and a tram stop with shelters is visible. The sky is partly cloudy, and some buildings feature gabled facades and decorative architectural details.A calm canal in Amsterdam lined with tall, narrow brick buildings on the right and leafy green trees on the left, with boats moored along both sides and a partly cloudy blue sky above.

something i’ve always wanted to try is to build a css language extension (like sass/less were) now that you “no longer need to have skills”, i might actually be able to do that

(cross post) i don’t want to talk to agents all day to work on 10 features in parallel my dream setup is i brainstorm with AI for 30 mins in the morning to plan and send it to work on 1 thing and then maybe 30 mins in the afternoon to review and merge is this a thing yet?

an easy win, if you work in a big company, is to keep a log of all the good discussions you contributed to (issues, slack threads, review comments), things that are not explicitly “shipping” buuut if you start optimising for those discussions, you lose them

real ones know that you shouldn’t take days off during holidays and just relax because everyone is on their break and then take the first 2 weeks of the year off when everyone is back 😛
some dude on twitter: If you’re taking a break for the holidays your ngmi.

i really dislike Sprints because you start work with a soon-due deadline already looming over you and it's hard to predict how my week will go, some days i get stuck on things and get very little finished, usually followed by a day when i get 3 days of work done in one day

TIL in the 60s the dutch govt hired a harvard+mit guy to "modernise" amsterdam his plans included demolishing multiple neighbourhoods (incl where i live now) to make highways and to fill the canals to make parking lots!! the people haaaated it, there were protests and the plans were thrown away

sign outside a bakery: Tir Copenhagen will be closed for summer from July-August and will reopen in September.

sometimes i forget to appreciate how pretty this city is
A bright, sunny day by a calm canal, with clear blue skies dotted with fluffy white clouds. Green trees and charming brick buildings line the water’s edge, while a few boats gently cruise along.

it’s a myth that men don’t care about fashion, show a man a random blue striped shirt and they’ll say oh yeah that’s the barca away kit from 2007-08 campaign, messi still wore number 19 in it
the back of a football jersey with light blue and dark blue stripes, there is no badge, name or number on the back which makes it hard to tell which team wore this unless of course you are a man who cares about fashion
