Wow, it's using NATS! I used NATS extensively 10+ years ago, and I'm happy to hear it's still around. Our infrastructure had hiccups across our fleet of machines, but one part that…

I'm pretty sure this is exactly what is happening in real life. I pressed F12 damnit! Go into the bios already!!

Right, so if it's happening already, nothing is going to change. Four days a week it is!

You're right. We need to bring back protracted violent strikes by unions and socialists!

Reading the code? Who has the time. Aah, I am sure the chickens of vibe coded origin, will never come to roost.

You could make this same post and replace any component with Wayland. At the end of the day the Linux community will continuously set the Linux Desktop back by N years. The most ob…

I made some chocolates for my wife, it was a pretty fun project overall and a lot easier (if messier) than I thought it would be. Can highly recommend if you ever want to make an o…

I've been struggling quite a bit the past year or two, coming to terms with a new reality that vibe coding is here to stay. After some introspection, I feel like the problem is tie…

Even if I would've bought Nvidia, Bitcoin, or whatever stock... who is to say I would've had the balls to hold it all the way to whatever they're at today. I probably would've ende…

Yo dawg, I heard you like virtualisation so we put virtual servers inside of your virtual servers.

I used custom elements extensively in 2014 when support was not as widespread. I think it's a beautiful, elegant solution and I'm still a little bit bitter that React became as big…

I traveled often between Jakarta and Japan in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The real breath of fresh air for me was literally the fresh air back in Japan. After running around for a week th…

An established founder makes claims X is the new frontier. X receives hundreds of millions in funding. Other less established founders claim they are working on X too. VCs sufferin…

Sidenote, but I love that in a GitHub issue discussing banning the use of LLMs, the GitHub interface asks if there's anything I'd like to fix with CoPilot.

It's all cURL.

I love the argument that Managed DBs cost a lot, but they're supposedly safer. Meanwhile people can't figure out the IAM permission models so they give the entire world access with…

Good taste, is what I like and advocate for. Bad taste, is the opposite.

This is no longer true. With the advance of "cashless" systems that were heavily pushed and promoted by the government, cash payments have dropped significantly![0] Cashless paymen…
