NIH syndrome? I am guilty of it too. I love implementing things from scratch, you learn a lot by doing so and you get to own the codebase end-to-end, so no surprises and fighting around others’ choices. It can get exhausting too though, in the end I succumb to using off-the-shelf components because my primary goals move at a higher level.

whats the point of url shorteners in 2026

Lonely in the night

I’m at the point where I understand half of what the AI tries to explain to me, but anyway, the feeds pages should load 10 times faster now.

"Sharing economy" once meant something. You'd Uber someone B→C when already driving A→B→C→D; you'd AirBNB your home when vacationing and stay at someone else's home who was doing the same. No driving just for Uber; no houses just for AirBNB. I fear this history will be forgotten.

The interface needs some work. For example, I would like the textarea that I am using right now to be as wide as the header above. Also, where is the character counter?

I am trying to wrap my head around Traefik (which I have never used; have only used Caddy for most of my needs) to plan a migration for things I now run on "bare metal” to containers, and then use Traefik as entry point. If you know some good guides, send the link my way, please.

My iPhone is pouring its battery. Feels like a major upgrade of the OS is coming. Hate this crap.

The job market feels like it's been run over by a truck. What's the play here? Anything automated/streamlined (job platforms, LinkedIn, etc.) feels like a dead end. Messaging people, networking and so on seems like the only reasonable way, and that's a hustle all on its own.

Microsoft Word Online (web version) is horrible.

The essential work of #programmingnotesfollow is building the theory of the problem + solution. Theory then enables creation of working code. In the end, the code is necessary, but it is not sufficient. Theory is indispensable. (cf. Peter Naur, 1985)

csak lazán, mint Wuhanban, a víruslaborban, a piac mögött

az interneten nem lehet egy képet sem átméretezni, sem Windows alatt, a Grok is csak hozzávetőlegesen dolgozik, mi következik ebből, muszáj lesz beengedni Gemmát, mintha Linus Thorvalds a napokban panaszkodott volna, hogy a Linuxot is elárasztotta az ai

akkor inkább holnap sürgősen elmegyek az állatparkba

Trying to jump back into project work while my kids are still home before school starts on Wednesday 🫠

még csak barátkozom azzal a gondolattal, hogy a Gemma 4 miatt először is Windows 11 lesz a gépen (meg hogy Szentmihályon presszó lesz), ezért nehéz elkezdeni

Why did the scarecrow keep winning all the awards? It was out standing in its field. #dadjokesnotesfollow

Gloriously cool, clear morning here in the Lowcountry of South Carolina ☀️ 😌

I've been on a kick lately of trying to visualize the oscillating clock, and ultimately the effectively arbitrarily complex activity of a computer processor, as modern refinements of the line shaft factory of the 19th century. Of compute as being not much more than profoundly refined "work" delivered by the electrical grid into marvelously complex machines. Does that, as a metaphor at least, feel as important to you as it has to me of late? We spend so much time in a world abstracted.
