Judgement, taste and quality were always precious skills. In the world of , I have become more aware of the fact that it is often hard to put in words why something is good, great or amazing - or just looks good, but is average. A lot of the professional content I see feels like most Netflix series. They have all the elements - but the overall experience is still meh. Quality is still hard to achieve.

Sick makes me calm. My mind goes quiet for some time. I can sit and look at the horizon. Or just contemplate the different shades of white of my ceiling while laying on my bed. I miss the silence of my youth.

Switching from Claude Max to Team, cc was trivial, just another login, but Claude Desktop and on iOS holds sessions in the cloud so need to move them somehow.

Big holiday today in Greece, bells ringing, bands singing, people gathered in the village, eating, enjoying life and I'm spending it inside coding. I don't feel bad and I'm not , it's just that I'm a bit odd. I don't like these forced gatherings. Feel stressful.

It’s called Dekapentavgoustos, meaning 15th of August in Greek, it’s a celebration of Virgin Mary. It’s a big national holiday.

What does shots fired and Virgin Mary have in common???

Crete.

Hah. Didn’t see that coming

…

I regret avoiding those things when I was younger. The stress from socializing is how you grow.

where in Greece are you from? my family is from Karpathos.

Before AI, coding was my creative outlet. Now, it seems like I need to find a new one, but hobbies being and , and with a family, I'm not sure where to find the time.

So we can't use em dash anymore — lest we anger the mob. Truth be told though, English teachers have always discouraged em dash overuse because it is a subtle art and very easy to get wrong.

The funny thing is that in the UK, we don't really use the em dash anyway. We use the hyphen (I guess en dash?) with a space each side. So the em dash has always looked a bit odd to us... 😊

There are dashes (-), as well as en dashes (–), and there are em dashes (—), not to miss the mighty center dot (•) that looks like a perky boob when surrounded by brackets haha

Just get and read Chicago Manual of Style, or Oxford Style Manual if you so prefer, and you’re all set to use the various dash’es (and many other things).

There’s other dashes to pick if you want to steer clear of the almighty em dash!

…

The anti-slop mob is tiresome. With a careful and appropiate use of ai it is possible to make a lot of interesting stuff. And I hate even more when the mob "profs" that the text is ai using those ai detectros that can't detect ai.

The TPMS indicator came back on again today; on the same road, can you believe it? I might have to get it checked at Costco this weekend.

What if i don't have thoughts worth logging?

Noone is going to judge you.

Value is in the eye of the beholder.

…

thought don't have much inherent value until you share them

…

actually, I disagree

well then gg i guess

Real bummer for about the price. I'm sure this is absolutely not what any of them wanted.

Same with the Steam Machine. They could have been awesome offerings for a lot of different use cases, but alas, being able to generate memes with grandma's pictures is of the utmost importance...

It really makes me wonder how the consumer market will evolve as the months go. It's not looking too good.

I have to constantly be working or I get very agitated. Is this ? I don’t like entertainment other than background music while working and maybe before going to sleep I watch a series on Netflix to relax. That’s when I’m on my introvert mode. When I’m extrovert (I’m ambivert) I have to constantly be around people and outdoors, I get agitated indoors, can’t work at all and definitely can’t watch anything. How do these two personalities co-exist in me?

hey guys ☺️

Hi lacie

Turn the car on. Shift in Neutral. Gas to the bottom. This is how my head feels most of the time.

You’re in the right place.

I do feel oddly at home here, and it's unusually pleasant!

I'm not an optimist, just a pessimist who's still proactive: I don't think things are going to get better, but I just can't talk myself into giving up yet.

Turned Stepper (self-hosted AWS StepFunctions) into client-server. Server hosts state machines, clients poll for tasks. New resources about running . claude -p works, now thinking if I need interactive session management.

Another little corner of the internet. Anything using fixed-width fonts and without pictures has surely got to be promising in this day and age, surely...

Microsoft Word Online (web version) is horrible.

It was the only way to reproduce the authentic horrible experience of the offline version.

🤣 Did not remember the offline version being this bad, but maybe it went downhill in the past 5 years I have not used it.

…

I never used the online version, but the last time I used the offline version it already was a horrible experience. This was about 5 years ago, before I had moved entirely to Linux. It was so bad I downloaded a pirated version of some old MS Office 2007 Blue Edition to have something acceptable. I unironically prefer Libre Office.
