I've been dithering for a month and in the mean time, @katachora wrote the article I've been trying to write.
https://blog.thecultofian.com/2025/01/28/humans-interacting-with-computers/
On interfaces, stagnation, and where we might go from here.
If it helps, it's also fucking funny.
I will still finish mine, and it will be different, but I am very glad that this one exists too. (And I'm stealing the word "sophrosyne".)

Alright, friends. I am a bit tired of Ivory’s slow pace in adding what I would consider to be essential features, and I’m thinking of switching.
Someone recommend me a Mastodon iOS app to try.
Ivory is excellent at what it does, but it’s not quite enough for me any more.

I count 3 conferences I’d like to attend this weekend. Y’know, simultaneously.
Sadly, my conference days are over, at least for a while. I’ll get back to them but it may be a few more years before I’m able to dedicate that kind of time.
I hope people at SoCraTes CH, FOSDEM, and FluConf are having a lot of fun and learning loads. Send me interesting things when you get a chance! 😊

Some days, I’m so enamoured with my kid and wish they’d never grow up.
Some days, I look forward to the days ahead, where we can play Nintendo together, or enjoy some fancy food, or hike (without me carrying them on my back).
And some days, I wish they were a teenager already so I can lock myself in a room for a year and build a goddamn operating system.

Oh, of course, it’s in YAML, because that’s how we write programming languages now. In YAML, the best front-end for a programming language.
I’m in The Bad Place, aren’t I?

This silly post brought to you by my realisation that Azure Pipelines has “compile-time” processing and “run-time” processing.
I mean, what?

The problem with all modern build systems is that they’re either totally non-monadic, or run in the IO monad.

I tried Safari. Did not stick. I hoped the vertical tabs would be fun but no such luck.
The tab groups are cool but if you are using them and click a link from another application, it opens in a new window. What?
And no middle-click to close tabs. That’s a core part of my tab management strategy. Occasionally I do a pass over them and close a bunch.
I miss multiple layers of nesting, too.
So back to Firefox and Tree Style Tabs I go.

Went to sleep at 01:00, cat woke me up at 04:00. It’s now 05:30.
I don’t think I’m getting back to sleep. Might as well work, I guess.
(No, Apple, I did not mean to write “might as eel work”. What are you on.)

Huh, only one Faye.
I’m a Faye. My hobbies are lying on the sofa, eating snacks, yelling at the cat, and convincing other people to do all my work.
Sometimes I do a good job, and then I make sure to remind everyone else about it for weeks.

I’ll be in Berlin in a couple of weeks! Shout if you’d like to hang out a little.
It’s a work trip, visiting the main office, so I won’t have tons of time, but I’d be happy to try and meet up and drink coffee/eat Currywurst.
