Unsolicited plug: I've had _Future? No Thanks!_ on my back-burner of games for awhile and finally picked it up. This is a delightful little adventure game, a lighthearted dark comedy set in a utopian Pittsburgh in 2045. You play one of the last capitalists, a man from a different time... And […]

lol, it really is!

Happy spoopy season.

Hey Mastoneighbors who are historians and anthropologists. ... Did we have anything like Star Trek before Star Trek? What I mean is that we've had mythology before. Stories of people, gods and heroes, parables that explore the human condition and try to encode the important truths. But most […]

All according to nabe. `nabe means pan`

The moment after you get fired during your 1-on-1.

When you lose someone who was carrying the torch, it really hurts. Even if you didn't know them well, or at all. Because it's not just the death of the person, it's the hitch in the race itself. It's the feeling that things just got a tiny bit harder... And they were already so hard. The best […]

I'm trying to decide if I want to do an actual blog post on my perception of LLM code generation in in industry or if it would just be adding to the pile of hot takes in a space with so many already. The thrust of it would be that companies who employ software engineers and aren't in the […]

Me any time I'm forced to use an office productivity tool. ... Seriously though, if somebody gave me "emacs but with access controls and multi-tenant," I would never want for anything else. (This post inspired by having to look up the date of […] [Original post on mastodon.fixermark.com]

When it comes to setting up Terraform configs and kubernetes permissions, I cannot over-emphasize how valuable the "It can type the same dumb magic string and variants on the string over and over again dozens of times with zero typos" feature of LLM agent frameworks is. Yes, this is a subset of […]

It is entirely possible that the musical is the oldest form of non-interactive public performance.

New Castlevania has you acquire new magic through defeating bosses, copying their powers into tarot deck. Technically, I think that makes it a Megamantroidvania.

STEAM WE NEED TO TALK.

I don't think I'll ever really see eye-to-eye with gun rights absolutists, or even people who think we've gone too far with gun restrictions. I don't think we've gone far enough. ... but if you want me to empathize with your position on the topic of wanting less oversight... Talk to me about […]

_The Ring,_ but it's just about a series of websites you have to visit in order. ... You still die in seven days though.

Castlevania gets remade so often because some stories are just completely timeless. Like "There's a blood-sucking aristocrat shut up in his unassailable tower and surrounded by his army of sycophants who insist on simping to his defense though there is no evidence he does anything for them. And […]

He is stored in the walls.

The trees are rusting again.

The opposite of DRY code is, of course DAMP code ("Dumb Adjustment of Multiple Parameters"), and too much DAMP leads to MOLD ("Many Onerous Little Diffs")

I love how much sway Randall Munroe has over my information ecosystem. That's it, that's the whole post. #xkcd

"Man, I have so much to do! Do you have any task management tips, American rock band Drowning Pool from Dallas, Texas?"

Counter-Intuitive corporate truism that I hate: When you are having too many meetings, sometimes the solution is one more meeting. Too many meetings is a symptom of the wrong people in the room to make actual, meaningful progress... But they can be a stepping stone to finding the right people […]

Hey lazy Mastodon. I am going to have to flush the server running this node and upgrade it to a new operating system completely. Is there a good guide somewhere on how to do that without ruining your Mastodon node? I'm particularly concerned about making sure I grab all the bits and bobs that […]
