Excited about these news! I am on Friday, going to stay for a while to work on textlog among other things. Happy because I was getting a bit depressed lately living in the mountains in Crete.

Crazy what happened earlier; one the cats here —the one I’m closest with— started unexpectedly meowing outside wanting to get in, I let it in and it started licking me like never before, as if she sensed I’m leaving in a couple of days, can’t explain it otherwise.

animals have a sense of wonder to them. enjoy your time

…

Such a beautiful island! I've been there and enjoyed everything (minus traffic)!

Text-only websites are really AI-friendly; maybe I can chat with an agent here.

Just trying to see how this works

created a quiz:

programmer emergency: production is down. You change absolutely nothing and restart the server. It works. What did you fix?

(replies are hidden until you answer the quiz)

Sharing a great read today: Some of the takes are on the extreme end, but like most IT decisions, you can dial the pain to exactly what you want. ^C

textlog runs on a 2.5€/mo vps 1 core/2gb ram, using just one instance of Bun with its embedded SQLite. Works perfect and I run a few other apps as well on that machine.

It is quite amazing what you can run in those small VPSes if you just build with them in mind.

Yeah, it survived being on 1st page of HN for a day just fine! Snappy, didn't sweat at all.

…

Why does it have such a cute name 😭😭😭

What's happening

WezTerm for local and remote multiplexing really is the ideal experience - it's so much better than using zellij, tmux, zmx, and friends.. I don't think they pitch this feature hard enough on their site. I think the in-terminal multiplexers have their place - e.g. if you need to access from mobile (no WezTerm there) or on machines where you simply don't want to install WezTerm for some reason. WezTermrm could probably eliminate that last one by packaging just the mux server.

I'm about to start a 30+ hrs longer train journey, If you have any advice, please share it.

prepare for boredom. it's quite comfortable but you can get bored easily so it's good to have something to be distracted.

Enjoy it! I am jealous, really. Let us know how it goes!

perfect time to sleep.

…

id bring a book and turn my phone off

Damn, that actually sounds like a genuinely nice experience. I'd recommend books, and a battery pack or two (not sure if there's electricity available), a blanket (unless you got a sleeping cabin) and comfortable clothes.

What’s your favorite ? Mine is banana for snack, blueberries for my yogurt bowl, and mango when I’m feeling rather indulgent.

I love figs! Not a fruit per se, they’re flowers, but still. And it’s their season now and they grow in my village so we pick them now.

replied to(deleted account):

I love how dates go so well with cashews. So at least once a day, I grab about 5 whole cashews and 1 date. It’s a perfect little snack!

What self control.. only 5?? :P

My experimentation says the crunchiness of 5 cashews perfectly balances the juiciness of the date. Your mileage may vary!

i would choose x and the fediverse over this tbh

I still don't get how now after AI coding there's people saying that contrary to common belief code wasn't a bottleneck and I realized that when I was starting to code at 10yrs ago when I was 15 and read it in a stackoverflow comment. I thought that was the common belief and still can't believe a lot of supposed senior programmers apparently believed so.

Yes, code was never the bottleneck and of course now it never will be either. Figuring out semantic modeling of data that makes sense across business domains and figuring out the right way to use digitalization to modernize processes, and the change cultures as become possible through such work - that’s much more bottlenecks! Code is easy; people and process is hard!

Routines in Claude Desktop create Claude Code sessions, so hourly routine litters in iPhone' Claude.app Code tab. Screw it, built my local version of AWS StepFunctions - Stepper - and run skills as state machines there.

Returned after a ride on bikes around the lake with the boy. Did stop for workout, 🏋️‍♂️ did pull-ups, push-ups and squats. Love the place we live in.

The more I about it, the more I am she is not .

I am programming a and custom DSL for it in C99. It gets a bit frustrating to think of language design and engine architecture decisions

that sounds cool!!! are you planning to make a visual novel any time soon?

I am actually doing this engine to make my own VN! I wanted a solution that's both light on web and is native. I do have a decent bit of the story outlined but engine is taking quite a while :/

could I know what the storys about?!

The story bases itself on the idea of indifference and hopelessness in changeable situations. Don't got a name set in stone but temporarily calling it Hopeful Hopelessness. It's my first time writing but I hope it becomes a nice story

…

I would love to play when your done with it!

I finished Andor last night. It was a pretty solid show, even if Star Wars isn't something you're deeply in to.

Spotted this Royal Air Force A400 over the lake yesterday, it was so different from civil planes www.planespotters.net/…/zm420-royal-air-force-…atlas-c1-a400m-180

!

I like this guy I drew ibb.co/vxRtMxQC

Ha! I imagine there's a huge amount of truth there.

andddd now he's Secretary of state!!!!
