welcome new bluesky friends! I was recently added to two cool lists I have a twitch and instagram where I primarily post @janetacarr everywhere, basically.

is anyone else obsessed with the "shape" of code? In addition to being well-written, its structural form inspires beauty or am I just a weirdo

world's largest parasite becomes world's first trillionaire

low key a little pissed that LLMs ruined the em dash in writing the em dash was central to my writing voice and I'm struggling to dance around it and keep my flow

the lie can go on no longer: COBOL devs make average salaries

mfw unemployed people say ralph is taking our jobs and i still get paid for the artisanal stuff

Wake up babe new AI gold fish just dropped

The Verge@theverge.com · 9mo ago

Razer unveiled its AI concepts at CES 2026, which include an anime hologram that can speak to you, and headphones with built-in cameras.

'forget the code exists' they said it will be fun they said.

nobody cares if LLMs produce poor code quality code quality is not a KPI, OKR, SMART goal, CSF, or CPI. it doesn't matter to corpos. when poor code quality reaches criticality, business systems can fail. So let them eat cake.

"maaaaan, they don't make algorithms like they used to"

well this is surprising apparently someone is impersonating me on @discord.com ? my discord username is "janetacarr" ( formerly janetacarr#0930) photo sent by a viewer (note the _ in the impersonator's username). careful out there

each year i become more convinced that professional software development deliberately perverts the enjoyment of programming and it doesn't have to be this way

sometimes you just have to sit and put some hard, capital "C", Coding into it

for the love of god, please stop forking VS code

a programming language that throws pizza parties?

Thought experiment: Most programming languages were designed in an era where mostly one programmer coded in isolation. If you were designing a language for modern collaborative programming/commenting/etc., what would you change? How would you *modify* existing languages?

made the case for Dvorak.

Love to see data in the real world

Wow this is cool. I just learned this “live” thingy is in beta for certain twitch streamers.

THEY SAID I COULD DO IT SO I DID. I PUT JANET LANG ON THE PLAYDATE GAME CONSOLE.

i hate to admit it but it seems talking to LLMs like corpos works best; doing praise and criticize / feedback sandwich produced best results ie "this is great work. Can you blah blah blah? I love the work so far" Also saying "homie" works well too.

Just when I was about to switch to Forgejo >:)

introducing tangled: a git collaboration platform built on #atproto blog.tangled.sh/intro

It's always so remarkable to me how simple a tree traversal algorithm can be in Clojure This is 10 lines of code (sans docstring of course).

if you want LLMs to write more of your "favourite programming language" for you you don't have a favourite programming language. You have a technology tribe.

Whelp so much for going to Conj and TwitchCon 🙃

Finally. A major media outlet has finally reported on Trump’s total travel ban for transgender visa applicants seeking the United States. I had to scream for two days to get someone else to report on it. It is NOT just for athletes. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

so Claude 3.7 Sonnet sucks right? Like definitely not as good at coding as 3.5 Sonnet?

🤨

Does anyone want to watch my latest short? please let me be a shill to boost it in the SHORTS ALGORITHM youtube.com/shorts/6LdiO...

I only really get updates on my ex-boyfriend because we still follow each other on github. He's building.

please watch🥺 youtube.com/shorts/jtevG...

you know what I really hate about ruby? Gemfile Ruby Minor & Patch versions are really major versions. What. The. Fuck.
