I punch keys for a living. if I wasn’t doing that, I’d be a carpenter probably… or a forest ranger… maybe.

@dan_abramov I’m a decent carpenter, I ❤️ it, because I don’t think much (other than measurements). W/ coding, I think about everything. W/ the codebase, the past devs, the present devs, the future devs. This meditation helps me w/ life, w/ relationships, w/ importance. A continual reset.

Imagine a sitting President of the United States confirming the existence of aliens and the potential existential threat that could impose on everyone and your first thought is “Why’d it have to be Donald Trump?!” You’re missing the entire plot. Cope harder dude.
@spaceandtech_ If true, it’s such a stain on human history that he is the one to make the address. He is in the conversation for one of the worst humans who ever lived.

Update: reviewed some PRs and left nitpicks and bike shed comments that will likely lead to a few hours of back and forth comments that will likely spill into Slack. Reviewed some design docs and made similar comments/questions. Completed two 1-point tickets.

We live in a constitutional republic, we do NOT live in a democracy. God bless, read a book.

Vibe coders are constantly talking about skill issues when discussing prompts for AI execution, not realizing that they’re not learning from using AI, AI is indoctrinating them to follow specific rules. Ironic.

Dealing with pretentious software engineers is exhausting. They’re like energy 🧛♂️s that just make you sad and hate the entire community. Whether it’s a stack overflow post being shitty, or a comment on a @Medium blog being shitty, or a PR review being shitty. I despise them all.

Do your parents come to visit you now that you’re all grown up and leave every light on in every room they walk in or is that just my dad getting payback for years of high electricity bills?

I felt this.
Today I did something that went against ever fiber of my being as a dad. Hopefully I don’t need one of these in 10 years.

Would be wild if Hunter Biden and Donald Trump ended up in the same prison and were forced to start their own rival prison games for survival against each other.

People that stand in front of a glass window with the door open and just stare drive me INSANE. I’m like “It’s transparent lady” figure it out or get out of the way. You’re warming up the cheese.

If you have a “Baby on Board” sticker on your car and drive like Dominic Toretto, I’m hesitant to say “I think you’re a piece of shit”, because I have a lot of questions that requires a level of trust.

The best experience you can have at an airport is to neglect your phone and talk to random people. If you don’t like that person, find another, the people I’ve met today have all been funny, controversial, and kind.

Watching someone at a 7-11 buy five FOUR LOKOS @ 11:45 on a Sunday makes half of me hope they’re a content creator, and half want to give them a hug and ask if they’re okay. But them riding away on a scooter makes me think the latter of the two options would’ve been appropriate.

I found a new thing that unexpectedly pisses me off. Decade playlists that cover bands insert their versions of songs they play in dive bars. Hey jam band, great work. But your self promotion makes me hate you and I’ll check my growing list to see if I’m paying the cover.
