love that he called computers "high technology"

the "I can fix her" meme, but it's me and Safari

@are.na why don't u let us upload html files?!

We need URLs everywhere for everything, the way we have GPS and calendars for location and time. I want to send links to passages in PDFs and to specific moments in a song I’m listening to. Everything should be shareable

going insane because nothing I make visually feels like me

I think my answer to "why do you want to work here?" might boil down to "the work seems to require reading Man pages regularly"

Computers were never supposed to talk but now they do and we all have to figure out what that means, like wtf?!

Had a practical use case for Awk again, and it felt like using Cuneiform

Has been a bit less than two months since I started doing spaced repetition again, and I'm already at almost 1k new words?!

Working in a other languages really let's you appreciate, for better or worse, the structure Rust gives you

Love it when a website fails to load CSS in time and you get a peek on it’s HTML stripped down

The way Javascript deals with numbers is just pure insanity

Clojure’s arg destructuring seems so unnecessary, especially considering that the language doesn’t have types

talked to my mum and she called Zuckerberg an Arschkriecher out of nowhere lmao

being online a lot forces you to eventually ask yourself who you are not

LLMs are kinda the more useful the more confined the interface we interact with them

I really dislike the term "coding"

Bluesky not showing the likes tab on other peoples profile, while being public data anyway, is performative at best and deceptive at worst

because of work I got back into doing spaced repetition again, and I see so many narrow use cases even in domains that don't seem a likely fit at first
