In my experience, the people who complain about pre-commit checks slowing them down are the exact people I want pre-commit checks for and why the first step in my build pipelines is pre-commit run --all-files.

I know two things for certain, I’m not a Java dev and Agile values “working software over comprehensive documentation”.

I also know the number of undocumented Deprecated annotations I see is making me angry.

No need for social engineering when CI/CD pipelines are always left in debug mode and print secrets to the logs.

A company whose agile culture relies on rigorously following agile processes is as agile as the Democratic Popular Republic of Korea is democratic.

Stumbled onto one of my deprecated tools in a Confluence page yesterday. Last update to the script was 3 years ago, last update to the core data was 2.5 years ago, not long before it got replaced by another team’s service that was accessible via the UI.

This script helped prop up what is still my main project and area of focus, but more than that it was dead simple and I miss that.

Dataclasses are recent enough in Python to be found in a small subset of all code that is out there, so the slop machines are no good with them.

Had a colleague yesterday arguing to me that python sets use dunder equal for regular non-frozen dataclasses, and dunder hash only for frozen ones, which is incorrect.

Asked them to produce a demo before they write more code. Demo looked generated and failed, at which point they blamed having exhausted their o1 tokens and fallen back to GPT-o4 which is “worse at coding”.

Replaced the battery around 3 years ago with a iFixit kit, I’m still considering doing that again since it would be both cheaper and more environmentally friendly given that the laptop can still handle everything I need it to, i.e. Firefox, Wireguard, Obsidian and Neovim with LSPs.

To be fair the EOL thing only started being a problem last year and soon after the OpenCore Legacy Patcher 1.0 release came out. I’m on Sonoma now and everything is running perfectly.

The battery in my MacBook 12" from 2015 is all the way dead again…

It’s been a long time coming, starting off with pretty weak specs and having been EOL for years and whatnot, but maybe it’s time to look for a replacement.
