So I made a thing. I couldn't find anything to do what I needed so I built something. I was trying to debug some recursive code in morphia and losing track of where I was in the stack so I built a tracer plugin to capture it all for me. evanchooly.github.io/cartographer/

I just bought an authentic van gogh coffee table. I know it's authentic because there's a bit of veneer missing.
Is it too late to buy Game 6 tickets? I can't find anywhere to buy them online. #Knicks
I typically have used markdown because it's easier to write but i have some complex plans for changes at work that would really benefit from being in something more readable. I'm going to give this a whirl and see how it goes. claude.com/blog/using-c...

@anthropic.com really missed a great opportunity to name their agent Smith rather than Claude.
TIL: in OS X, if your pointer is at an edge for resizing, double clicking will expand to the edge of screen in that direction. e.g., on the lower left corner, it will expand all the way to the left/bottom edges of the screen. opt + double clicking will do it in the opposite direction as well.
This is the third time I've gotten up the high 1000s but my first to break 2k before something like a new phone resets my score because it didnt transfer over. Im probably close to 5k games without a loss.
claude plugin idea: we've all seen the plugin(s) that play a sound when claude prompts for guidance. i want one that plays music while claude is working so it's like being on hold.
hey copilot, i'm getting an NPE because in the code you generated, you're not passing a parameter so the default value of null gets used. fix it, please. "oh, i see what's wrong. I need to pass 'context = null' as an argument so the default value of null doesn't get applied to that parameter."
does anyone else feel weird referring to claude as "he" but internally compelled to adhere to social norms with a masculinely named but obviously agender entity? does anyone else spend too much time pondering this?
when configuring a plugin in the root pom in <pluginMgmt> how can I reference a file in the root folder such that modules will correctly resolve that path to the root and not within the module itself? i tried maven.multiModuleProjectDirectory but that always resolves to the module. i'm on 4.0.0-rc-5

Wishing @mayers.io, one of the most helpful #Java community sherpas in the developer ecosystem, a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Asking an AI agent to write your code is a lot like asking some person on fiverr to bang out some code for you. It'll cost you a few bucks, perhaps, in tokens and you have to scrutinize the hell out of the code you get back. but it beats working for a living.
