snek @snek.dev · 01/09/2026bit of an update, it's been a few months now since I parted ways with Deno, and I'm starting to actively look for jobs again! I'm pretty good with big systems, compilers, and embedded. especially if rust or elixir are involved :) 33811

snek @snek.dev · 24/08/2026it must really suck to make those lcd displays used in all the embedded diy projects like they can all do 120hz and vsync and region updates and every single bit of example code is like the most fucked up laggy screen tear mess 040

snek @snek.dev · 17/06/2026nice thing about running your own git forge is that the actions runner starts with no delay and has better uptime 0130
snek @snek.dev · 24/05/2026I want security but qubesos is a huge pain. all I really need is for every project I check out to implicitly be given its own container/microvm. does good tooling for this exist? automatically switching into the correct context when my shell cwd enters a project folder or something? 110

snek @snek.dev · 20/04/2026I think all the fuckups of webauthn can be traced back to the fact that the underlying protocol is very simple and therefore enables a wide ecosystem of authenticators, but the companies that brought it to the web wanted to have absolute control over what authenticators users use. 281

snek @snek.dev · 16/03/2026my hot take today is that any device capable of running linux should also have enough smarts to enumerate devices rather than have to use evil device trees i hate them so much 171

snek @snek.dev · 29/12/2025i love that vattenfall put these stupid "smart" water meters in that do not correctly report their usage to the company, and do not have their P1 port enabled, so i still need to fill out a form for them every few months, and I can't even monitor my usage :( 040
