Up earlier than I should be today. The witching hour got me. I started thinking about how many in society have decided they prefer screens and artificial words over real words and real connection. Have we collectively decided it’s easier to just not be vulnerable? I should go back to bed…

Hi all, this is my first introduction to textlog, stumbled upon it whilst browsing Fdroid. What do you like to do on here?

I like to write whatever's on my mind, or questions on the rare occasion!

Or, as I've seen, budgeting for a certain item?

caught me there (⁠＠⁠_⁠＠⁠;⁠)

…

You outed yourself

The pendulum has swung far in the direction of favouring machine generated content over that from actual people. I wonder when it will swing back?

What pendulum? The algorithms’? I don’t think any human is happy about their feeds filling with slop.

Huge refactor today, moved from sync SQLite to Worker based, touched 88 files, pre- it would have taken a week or so, finished now in ~1:30h. And I wouldn’t have the confidence I have now that it went correct. It went well, though a bug or two might surface, we’ll see.

Good work! What motivated the refactor exactly? I'm not familiar at all with Worker

…

SQLite is embedded in the main thread same as the HTTP server. I noticed some requests dropping and because the queries have become more complex I figured it has to do with SQLite blocking for too much time. Moving it to a Worker makes the DB asynchronous and bypass this problem.

Huge refactor and no bugs. I’m genuinely impressed by the quality of output of GPT 5.6 Sol.

While learning jj, I realize how Git habituated me into being ok with its unique jargon and prickly command line interface. Unlearning Git is refreshing.

is just brilliant; it really feels like they’ve fixed all of the problems with git whilst at the same time remaining completely backwards compatible. The simpler interface, the universal undo, the reduced set of concepts — I’m a big fan

Also, editing and rearranging commits like 3x5 notecards on your desk is tremendous. It makes using an SCM feel more like editing your work than lumbering forward.

Making my first post in this vein

i made it is an open-source version of grammarly that uses chatgpt, grok subscription or even then already local apple intelligence models.

looks great!

thanks mate.

How can I change an organisation with hundreds of frustrated employees, when I can’t change my own life with only one person. Does a different person run a company and a different person live their life? I doubt it.

I think so, actually. My wife runs my household, I run my engineering org. As I get older I do see the two aspects of my personality start to merge but they are still divergent and were much moreso in my earlier years.

and to be clear, I don't mean that I offload all the work to her by any stretch. It's just that I'm much more outspoken and opinionated on the specifics of work life versus home life.

Recently hit 10+ years (cumulative) of being a software engineer. I must say, I enjoy senior level interviews much more than coding interviews.

Being interviewed or interviewing?

…

Yeah, got through some interviews earlier this week. Waiting on responses.

i'm always anxious and i stutter when i get an interview, which lately has been none hence i have time to build things like this site

Cooked really good chicken this weekend

My friend won 2nd place in the pc demo competition at Evoke in Köln this weekend, with his ascii-inspired demo Glyphnosis. Really happy for him! 💥

woo that was great, happy for him! I had an Amiga too :D remember all that era so this demo resonated a lot

…

That’s awesome. Congrats to your friend.

Hi

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.

what are some of you favorite teas?

it's so embarrassing that I'm saving money for a body pillow if all things
