Any conversation

Job I was hoping for gave me the "we found another applicant" treatment. I don't begrudge them for that, since I know I had a 'less than adequate initial coding interview. But still, it stings and sucks. Hopefully my other interviews yield better results...

Hit me up if you want a long-term, low-commitment, long-distance, e-mail pen-pal. I've never had so much fun hyphenating things.

I like this concept

Am in a beautiful national park right now, drinking #coffeenotesfollow with elks, but the lack of strong internet makes me nervous :(

most akkor mit kezdjek ezzel a Windows 10, Windows 11, Ubuntu Linux 3-as operációs rendszerrel egy két felé particinált winchesteren, jobb lesz ha előbb megvárom, ameddig törli magát a Windows 10, nem azt mondták, hogy lassítani kell az MI projekteket, annyira tetű módon csinálom

What’s the difference between a script-kiddy and a real #developernotesfollow? Abstraction. You can program your whole life without learning how to meaningfully abstract problems into simpler pieces that TRULY make the problem easier to understand. I’m not talking about design patterns or #OOPnotesfollow vs #FPnotesfollow. These tools can help. But to really simplify something for others, you need an intellectual empathy that many simply never figure out.

My son's new class doesn't have a Smith, Johnson, or Williams. It's the Hughes kid who breaks in at #96Name CensusUS Last Names · Popularity, Meanings & Census DataEvery US last name from the Census Bureau surname files, ranked by prevalence..

Built a couple lambdas today to send account verification and onboarding drip emails for folks who sign up for my app but don’t make it all the way through the onboarding flow. Pretty cool to be able to quickly bang out self-contained infra for this instead of having to pay some SaaS vendor.

"If you don't think of yourself years ago as an idiot... Perhaps it is because you still are one." In that spirit I started to write down my own thoughts. I think I am meant to call it a blog. Years from now I can read my old words and cringe at them. www.gruntsoft.com/words/

what ls -flag is your go-to?

Guess we're doing Halloween stuff on sale everywhere now 🎃

one-point-five-shotted a local node app for creating social posts. drawing from static pages (hey this exists) or new blog posts (timely). with copy/paste to x, and one click post to bluesky and mastodon, tag manager and stale/archive/reject/refresh options. An idea and a solution in about 10 minutes. Madness.

@stagasprofilefollowcreative technologist creator of textlog, the emote you can set as mood in your profile, what limits does it have? I was trying to use the scissors emoji ( ✂️ ), but it wouldn't let me

I'm trying to construct an argument that LLMs are like a chess engine. People still play chess. But somehow this falls short.

hihihi
