The Perfect Hiring System

game dev with LLMs assisting on some of the engine legwork I learned to do over the years is the most fun programming I've had since I was 12 years old plucking away at the public library commodore 64

I though textlog was a gonner there. It was several hours with just a 502 response. Glad to see it's back!

I messaged stagas on reddit about it when it went down lol

I'm certainly glad it's still around, I just got here.

My son's new class doesn't have a Smith, Johnson, or Williams. It's the Hughes kid who breaks in at . I expect these kids with strong stage names to have pants and personalities to match.

One benefit of everybody freaking out about the death blueberries is that blueberries are cheap for the rest of us rn

I love the "feel" of this place. It's minimal, but not too minimal. Nice work! I'm probably gonna be a little chatty on here. If anyone minds that, then just @ me :-)

Also, thank you for not turning my emoticons into emoji!! As someone from the pre-internet era, I appreciate that :-)

…

But can we use emoji if we want? 🤔

It's just very pleasant.

My Country is On Fire mataherry.bearblog.dev/my-country-is-on-fire/

Hati-hati pak! I worked in Borneo before, and seeing the forests burn is horrifying. I miss all the wildlife there. Mau kembali ke Indonesia!

I'm in Java, not Kalimantan, really can't imagine how all the people and animals go through everyday living in literal hell of fire

Is there any contact you can make with international advocates?

When I read about in reputable , I relate to almost everything that is described (keeping in mind that no two autistic people are alike). However, I always read the sections on with bewilderment. I don't identify either with the obsessive need to make eye contact, which UK and US books often mention as behavior, or with the difficulties in making it.

I suspect—and this is the interesting part—that there are significant cultural differences in this regard. In fact, the reputable Spanish books on autism that I have read don't address this topic (if I remember correctly).

Unless I am attracted to the person I almost never maintain eye contact while talking to them. I’m from Greece btw, doing eye contact is normal, I see others do it, so I diverge there.

…

Definitely people here do intense full locked eye contact, which I can’t do, unless I’m attracted to the person as I said. Even then I’ll move a bit around the face because it’s uncomfortable even then. But others just lock in completely I see them doing it.

OK. I guess that Greece may be similar to Spain. I feel comfortable hanging with greeks, in Greece and elswhere. Then, if I don't look at the eyes, but others do. I guess that I'm very good at masking that I don't look at the eyes. I never got a comment related to eye contact.

I don’t think it’s something people notice immediately and consciously think this is wrong to make a comment, they will probably just not feel the same connection or feel something is off about you in general or think that you’re busy thinking other things. It’s not the only case to not make eye contact with someone, you might just not like them. That’s probably what they will sense.

This is probably the right answer. I guess I have to forget about it. The kids I think about it the better.

It was only yesterday that I clicked on a Translate button to read a Japanese post. Today I see a Chinese post with English translation right below. Beautiful stuff.

the day is done! time to stop looking at the bad screen they pay me for to go home and watch the good screen I pay them for

So true... I type in a screen I paid for 🤣

amennyire csak lehet, mármint sebességben

looks like a cool place to start

not my blog but i recently discovered acko.net which i can recommend. awesome personal website

That site makes me dizzy with all the animations and fly ins/outs.

When I write I just add html files to the swiley.net folder in public.swiley.net. Sometimes I syndicate elsewhere (I was doing Substack for a while before Notes took over.)

thechels.uk is mine, thanks :-)

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...

There are days llms impress, and days they don’t. I debugged an issue with Astra and it said it had no idea what’s going on and need to ask me before taking serious actions. Me adding “-f” to a mv and problem solved. So today I was not impressed.

I'm so fed up with the series of tabloid articles claiming Koji was a stand-in actor in koitoki. the 'insider' seems to be part of the staff since they had access to details like the location of the wrap-up party. Idc who they are and how true their information is, the intention is obviously malicious. it's just disappointing that a person like that is blending in with the people my oshi works with, viewing him as nothing more than a subject to sell to trash tabloids.

the fact that these articles completely contradict official content is reason enough to ignore them. for instance, the article claimed Koji wasn't as cheerful as usual, yet the crank-in footage with Mone-chan was filled with laughter, and she even explicitly called him the mood maker of the set. they also claimed he joined filming late, contradicting the fact that they all met at the initial script reading. plus, on sunomanma, Raul even mentioned seeing the original drama proposal early on.

an official article from the director confirming he sent the offer to Koji after seeing his performance in 'fake mommy' is the only thing we should believe. behind-the-scenes details that aren't officially shared shouldn't be treated as truth. I don't understand why they're so persistent about how Koji got the role. why not direct that focus toward the one prominent cast member with a history of racism and misogyny? that's the only valid reason to feel uncomfortable about this drama.
