Can't remember the last time I was in a movie theater but I saw the new Spider-Man and was not disappointed

Finished Smallville in under 2 weeks. They should have stopped after season 7. Everything after just pissed me off.
Genuinely, I find myself working harder. One of my super powers was I was faster than you at designing & writing what I needed to. I needed that time saved to be able to regulate, avoid burnout. Now that’s taken from me. I can’t outpace you. You (proverbial) got to catch up to me for free.
I've never been more productive than I have with AI. I've also never been more depressed.
Let’s assume for a second AI is making you more productive. Is it making your life any better? Are you healthier? Happier? Have more free time? Have richer social lives? Greater fulfillment? I’m not being hyperbolic, the main thing AI has increased in my life is misery. How am I supposed to act?
Same reaction to season 8. Honestly, the Smallville writers should have been drawn and quartered. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

Every experienced Rails developer has at least one convention they don't follow anymore. Not because it's bad. Just because experience taught them something different. What's yours?

Last week I migrated a Rails app from structure.sql back to schema.rb, AMA.
They say a dog is man's most loyal companion. Mine is my podcast editor, who has spent seven years deleting the evidence that I should never have been given a microphone.

Me 10 seconds after getting the second dust storm alert in two days. The spice must flow.
I often oscillate between feeling like shit and feeling like THE shit. Today, I'm feeling like the greatest programmer to ever live.
AC went out and it's 105°F outside so my plan to sleep outside isn't looking good
