I’m watching #BangtanRising and damn, those kids are just freaking adorable #BTS #GoshaDoesKpop
Awed/annoyed that I'm developing a kind of fluency in the LLM-bullshit dialect of the English language: "Oh it wrote 'a load-bearing concept', that means this bit is being used by other parts of the system"
I probably spent a lot more time than I should have on this control. I'm not a fan of the checkmark + colour label pattern, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do this better. #UI
The #BTS Hot Ones interview is genuinely enjoyable and quite funny. It looks like the interviewer went digging for some deep lore when prepping, I love how surprised/excited Jin was when he got asked about fishing! #GoshaDoesKpop

I started working on a small graph UI toolkit in #ClojureScript, to act as a replacement for react-flow in Parts. For now it only has UIx components, but shouldn’t be too hard to support Reagent, too. github.com/apossiblespa... apossiblespace.github.io/minigraph/

Billion dollar business idea: wet wipes that don’t fuse into one giant cellulose brick of despair inside the packaging while you’re dealing with a poopnado
I think the idea that has informed my thinking about LLMs as tools the most so far is that LLMs answer the question “what does an answer to this question look like?” Instead of the actual question. This has been on my mind whenever I have to engage with anything LLM-related.

Doom Emacs randomly decided to stop opening large-ish Clojure files (we’re talking sub-100kb). Oh joy, oh happiness.
Any UK small business owners who are using Wise as their only business bank account? Thinking of switching to that (from Revolut) because of lower costs, would love some feedback!
Wow someone on bluesky has built a digital version of the “they are disgracing our neighbourhood” billboard from my Soviet childhood

Okay I guess I’ll still keep an eye on this space. @danabra.mov’s open socials piece got me interested, found out about @tangled.org through it. Exciting stuff.
Back in the 90/00s, you’d go for a Mac as a way to rebel against the beige box PC hegemony, you’d go for Lotus 1-2-3 to protest against MS Office, and you’d get a Matrox g400 to show you had more taste than the average Quake-loving 3DFx-er. What are some parallels today?
Chat, how can I access my mp3 collection on my work laptop without actually copying it over (it has bitdefender on it and I don't want to trigger any alerts). At home I guess I can just mount a network drive and point cmus/doppler at it, but what if I'm outside or travelling?
Now that I'm no longer looking for work, I should turn my Hire Me website (hire.gosha.net) into a page on my homepage I think. It's a nice collection of past projects and kind things people have said about me.

UK friends: please recommend me your favourite accountancy. Must be friendly to contractors/small tech businesses 🙏 Thank you!
Seems like I’ve successfully optimised that part of my life: I’ve joined a small but super smart team building some seriously cool tech using Clojure!

Today is the 47th anniversary of this clearly unimprovable photo, from a story so absurd that it shouldn’t be true, but is: the day a team of workers from British Waterways pulled the plug out of the Chesterfield Canal, and all the water emptied out
