It’s kinda hilarious how we’ve all got ray tracing gfx cards, more pixels than you can shake a blitter chip at, 1.21 gigawatts of memory, and we’re all just playing a card game with intentionally lo-fi pixellated gfx & simulated crt effect that would’ve probably played exactly the same on an Atari ST.

I’ve got some availability for new projects and wanted to put the word out. If you or someone you know is looking for help with Ruby on #Rails (my specialty for 20+ years!) or #Elixir Phoenix (big LiveView fan here), I’d love to chat!

I work on everything from full-stack dev to performance optimisation, or team augmentation. Cheers!

Played with Windsurf AI IDE. This is the fun you have to deal with.

Basically:

"Where did that module name come from?"

"Oh, someone else's project"

"WHAT?"

"oops, I lied. I made that up. Which violates my instructions ¯_(ツ)_/¯"

Seeing any Japanese TV reminds me of this classic, which coincidentally I noticed someone re-quote on reddit today https://www.reddit.com/r/japan/comments/1q5wl9/japanese_tv_rant/

I can't swim (have been scared of water for as long as I can remember) and this pisses me off no end. I really want to learn, but the thought of trying to have lessons in Japanese when it's more of a psychological problem than a physical one is just a no-go.

I've never understood why 'sports' gets to be part of 'The News' on TV. Like, it's "The war against Eurasia is going badly, inflation is at 30%, the world is on fire, and a group of guys kicked a ball rather better than some other guys".

I mean, yes, this is nothing compared to how this is going to affect a lot of people a lot more than this, but the idea of having to see that fucker's mug and hear his whiny pathetic voice for the next few years makes me feel sick. How does he not have serious heart disease or something else yet?

Excited about this! Sonic Pi is incredible and learning it from Sam himself should be great. Hope it’s a success for him. https://mastodon.social/@samaaron/113430126709394161

I think the brexit referendum killed my optimism for life wrt any election or referendum. Honestly? I think next week is going to be a bad week, a very bad week. But basically I now expect every vote to go very very badly.
