Feel gutted. Been working pretty solid (coding) on a new idea ... only to find out that one of the competitors I did an analysis on .. i missed a crucial detail and I don't think I can compete anymore. The feeling of "yeah! this is a good idea!" ... and then "oh what, it's actually made". 😭

CleanTV - back to what a TV used to be ... a display device without an OS. all i need is a chromecast connected to hdmi. or a hacked chromecast if the default OOB has nasty shiz in it. And once more, we're not the product.

Current status: fixing a bug in Azurite. Because my _other_ project/hustle discovered a gap between Azurite (with the bug) and Azure Storage. So my code works with Azurite but would have crashed against Azure Storage. It's to do with DateTimes. PR coming soon (after I sleep and wake up, later)

Coding is fun again! nope .. that's to focused... take 2 Engineering is fun again!!!!!! (not trolling). Using Claude.ai this entire year has been wild. Not all good, but recently been fine tuning my skills and getting more efficient results. Exciting == I'm now working on my three side projects!

claude.aiClaudeClaude is Anthropic's AI, built for problem solvers. Tackle complex challenges, analyze data, write code, and think through your hardest work.

Feels like everyone is getting AI to rewrite existing-app-or-tool into a Rust version of that same app? Ok, getting off JS/TS/PHP/PY/etc is *good*. Yay, finally people are coming to the senses! but ... Rust? It's excellent .. but so is .NET!! Surely there can be room for *both* awesome langs?

32 years ago today, we held the launch party for DOOM II at the Limelight in NYC, a former church. Happy birthday to DOOM II, but also, happy birthday to the Super Shotgun, the be-all and end-all of many a monster.

Looking forward to having a totally free version of a docker UI than Docker Desktop. - Never really liked Rancher or Podman - MS is now enabling something via WSL so maybe this will work? I'm also surprised there's no OSS equiv. Docker _engine_ is free, so why not a nice OSS UI?

@github.com Can we PLEASE have the (optional) ability to set our GitHub Copilot Usage Billing -per repo- please!! I have a Copilot enabled via a few Organisations. It's very very frustrating to always keep switching the Usage between organisations as i work on different repos. 🙏🏻PLEASE🙏🏻

There are a lot of people who think their parents got their brains destroyed by Fox News, but somehow they’re not getting their brains destroyed by staying on Twitter.

Maybe I'm too old .. but I still will fight that "a rave party" is not what all these dance music festivals, are - they are 2 different things. - Rave party: warehouse. Low quality / None set design. Just DJ and music and lights. Room to dance. - Festival: Phones. Visually sexy. Stand-moving.

Agentic Agent GUI's, can we _please_ have some standards agreed upon. *Please*. For example: Agent/SubAgent files. When I have my agent files setup for opencode, I'm not interested in switching over to Claude or VSCode if they are not compatible.

Gillian Anderson has officially revealed the upcoming 1,478-piece LEGO set for THE X-FILES. The set is centered on Mulder’s office, paired with a forest clearing scene and a hovering UFO. Includes 8 minifigures, featuring Mulder, Scully, The Flukeman & more. August 4.

Monday morning, first thing I have to remember to do at work: Update my GitHub Copilot billing from _personal org_ to _work org_. Seriously GH - you have one job. Tip: Usage should be linked (in order of preference) - Repo <-- PLEASE ADD THIS - Fall back account <-- this is the current setting
