Interrupting your doomscrolling with a fun project I did to prevent myself from doomscrolling: a LEGO MOC of the world map from The Legend of Zelda: a Link to the Past video game. I used bricks we had on hand, so the colors and shapes aren’t perfect, but pretty dang close for small scale!

Apparently ohshitgit.com is on the front page of hacker news again. I always HATE when that happens because the comments are from insufferable know-it-all’s who can’t conceive how anyone could be bad at git because “it’s so easy” like, my dude 3 million people over the last 8.5 years are proving you wrong!

A long time ago, someone (maybe @estelle ?) told me that Tuesday is the best day of the week to publish a blog post, and based on the evidence from posting on both Tues & Thurs, that is absolutely correct!

I don't recall how much exactly I spent to participate in the CAH Saves America campaign back in 2017, but it's truly the gift that keeps on giving!!

In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks www.ElonOwesYou100Dollars.com

Especially especially especially comment the shit out of things if you run a large open source platform, help us help you by making it possible to understand the deep internals of your code. Sorry but I don’t have hours and hours to “just read the tests” or “just look at git history”

Once again I am imploring you to comment your code to make it clear why you do something. I promise you that your code will never be “self documenting” enough for anyone outside of your team to understand it if it has ZERO comments to explain shit
