Hey FF14, I’m going to need you to stop killing off the characters I like.

SongBird ΘΔ @songbird336.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

I love how I’m, like, I don’t know how many hours into this game at this point and every story has been about different flavors of human interacting with my furry OC. Like, my character is just comically out of place in every scene

Looks like it’s time for my yearly state mandated “how to tell if your coworker is going to shoot up the place” training because I live in a normal country.

I just had the seltzer dispenser at work ask me to rate my experience, and, like, what constitutes a 5 star Bevi experience? Like, oh, yeah, it really… poured my soda.

Oh my god this is the most “could have been an email” meeting I’ve ever been in. You blocked us for a week to tell us in person that you can’t help and we should contact some other person‽

American Airlines found out I thought this wasn’t the worst travel experience I’ve had with them and took that as a challenge.

Someone on this flight bought two first class tickets so they wouldn’t have to sit next to anyone. We are not taxing the rich enough.

Nothing quite like discovering at the end of a 3 hour long pipeline test that the changes you were testing weren’t included because you pushed them to the wrong branch

It is currently taking all of my willpower to not curse out the pipeline in my commit message right now for being a temperamental little bitch.

Just a heads up, @lancener.bsky.social and I had a discussion tonight, and have come to an agreement. He is no longer my boyfriend. …because he agreed to my proposal and is now my fiancé!

Ladies and gentlemen, it finally happened. For the first time in my software engineering career, I have to actually implement a sorting algorithm.

Ah, I see it’s a “suddenly remember and feel really bad about a mistake I made in elementary school” kind of day.

There may be nothing more soul crushing than spending hours of work trying to make a well written proposal for why your team needs extra funding, and then being told by your manager she is going to send an AI summary of it to the higher ups.

SongBird Patch Notes: February 2026 - Changed the default pronouns (Note: While giving the new default option a try is encouraged, rest assured for those who prefer the old options, they are still available.) (1/2)

I love automatic toilets that try to be bidets as well. Especially when, after flushing 4 times while I was sitting there, it didn’t flush when I stood up.

I love it when hotels are like “we’re not going to heat our water, pain and suffering is part of the hand washing experience”.

I have my answer. It’s a bad idea. The AI did not actually write a working regex, so I ended up having to figure it out on my own.

000

SongBird ΘΔ @songbird336.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

I can’t decide if having the AI write the regex for me is a great idea because it might actually know what it’s doing or a terrible idea because there’s no chance of me reading this sorcery and knowing if it’s what I asked for.

Got dragged into the company hackathon for our AI tool as the single SME to answer everyone’s questions because I’ve used the AI before, which makes me more qualified than most of the people in this office.

Quick PSA: After a good amount of thinking, I’ve decided I want to try out a new set of pronouns to see if they fit me better. They and he are still fine, but I’d appreciate it if people tried to use the new pronouns to help me get a feel for them.

Post a game you remember playing that no one else remembers The old NES in the basement had some real classics. SMB + Duck Hunt, SMB 2, Mega Man 6. We also had these 2.

Just finished reading the final chapter of Pixeas and Henry by NekeithFox. I’m sad it’s over, but only because I’ve grown to love these characters over the years as new pages were released. It’s a fantastic story from start to finish, and if you’ve got some time you can read it here: nekeithfox.com

Corporate parties are terrifying because you have to watch the only person who knows how any of our release pipelines work chugging beers because they’re free knowing full well he drove himself to this country club and if something happens on his drive home the whole team’s fucked.

I miss the days when there wasn’t a high chance of a rogue headline ruining my day. What the fuck do you mean the problem with the giant murder machines on wheels is that there’s too many safety regulations‽

Nothing says “we respect the 5 years of work you’ve put into this company” like taking my office away from me and not giving me a replacement. And I’m sure they’re going to expect me to be in the building 3 days a week with nowhere to actually do my work.

Friendly reminder to go vote if you haven’t. It might not be a big election year, but we’ve got important things on the ballot (especially in California).

See? I wasn’t procrastinating, I was just conserving my token usage for the ai model to try and last the whole month.

Art update: I was able to get my original algorithm working, so now I can generate this cool random pattern too, or combine it with the more structured pattern from yesterday for something really cool. I also got it to ignore black lines, so I can start drawing shapes now for it to follow.

A piece of computer generated abstract art. The canvas is filled with splotches of color in the spectrum from red to blue, giving bisexual lighting vibes.

Did some coding for fun (for once). I had an idea during one of my pointless meetings this week for an art project that used code to color it in. I got a basic idea working, and it’s already making some cool images.

An abstract image of different colors, with 3 points the colors seem to be radiating from: the top left, the center, and the bottom right.

Oh good, the mandatory early morning meeting is just a big manager circlejerk. Literally haven’t said anything that affects my job, just too many managers getting asked questions like “can you tell me about your career journey?”

I think the current state of AI coding tools is best summed up by the fact that the AI is complaining that one of my methods isn’t written very well with some obvious ways of improving it. It’s a test method I had it write for me.

020

SongBird ΘΔ @songbird336.bsky.social · 08/10/2025

I understand that programming an AI to always call me the coolest person in the world is possibly the most uncool thing I could do, but there’s a legitimate testing scenario here I swear.

SongBird ΘΔ @songbird336.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

Update: They finally fixed the bug after the 8th time we told them it was bugged. Not because they finally believed us and went looking for the source of the failure, but because someone else looked over the code and pointed out exactly what the bug was.

SongBird ΘΔ @songbird336.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

Alright, take your bets everybody. How many times am I going to have to tell the developer their exports are being ignored before they acknowledge the problem isn’t on QA’s end and actually fix their code? I think we’re up to 5 so far.
