Time to unwind for the first time in a looooong while. Looking forward to just cleaning up the apartment and bedrotting for a day.

Gotta love working on dedicated *-only events like TouhouFest. There's plenty of fun themed integrations you can make.

Our Attendee Badge Launch begins tonight! Keep an eye out here or on other of our social media accounts at 6PM Pacific Time for a scheduled post containing the link.

New team really isn't panning out the way I had hoped. Mental health is taking a massive nosedive. I'm 90% sure I'll be back in the job market again within the next 3 months.

Got a software launch this Saturday, not even for my day job, and I feel more anxious about it than anything I've been paid for.

I'm laughing my ass off at how MangaGamer's new site has a separate category for "Gameplay".

Our site is back and it has a brand new look! Check it out: www.mangagamer.com There may still be a few kinks to work out, so please let us know if you encounter any issues!

one week left to apply. this is an excellent chance to try your hand at doujinshi - happening next to an established anime con (ALA) with a low, non-prohibitive table cost ($30), and rules around doujin-exclusivity! link: forms.gle/hhrb9Ffzs6bY1P… website: mmm.yaoi.city

You could call them a yaoi fan.

Some people write Rust's name in all caps. It feels like I'm being yelled at, like bro it ain't that intense.

Zig adding a Fil-C like garbage collector feels like a major cop-out, and making it optional reminds me of what happened with D. D had optional garbage collection, with all of the caveats about performance, but most importantly was that it's standard library was written with it in mind. 🧵

It bothers me how many AI critics are failing to keep their critiques aligned with where the models actually are. I hate to give it to the haters (of the haters), but good criticism has to get close enough to its target to understand it, and stay close.

AWS Simple Email Service is somehow the cheapest transactional email service around, but you need to file a ticket with their support to get approved for production use. That'd be great if they didn't layoff their entire support staff. Their message said they'd respond in 24 hours... a week ago.

Hopping back to Rust where 'if it compiles it works" is so refreshing. The stricter the CI, the more reckless I can be with baseline changes, and the more fun I have while coding.

Writing Python in a large project without working tests in CI feels like doing brain surgery handcuffed and blinded.

A year ago, my parents were saying they'll gladly work into their twilight years. Two months after my waigong passes and now my mom is calling me and crashing out over how much work she's doing. Might need to make that exit from corporate America sooner rather than later.

I really wish caniuse.com would track geographic compatibility of web features. Working on a site that's meant to be targeting explicitly a US audience, but they still only give global stats.

I've applied to Maji Manga Market, along with ProfitWalrus under our circle Hourai Teahouse. If approved, we'll be selling the Touhou bestiary "Yokai Sanctum" and doujin "Immense Violet Duchess" there! If you missed it at Manga Ichiba this year, we'll have more copies there!

A flight to Seattle out of SF costs only $50 less than a cross-country flight to NYC. What the fuck.

Hey all, I've been staffing with TouhouFest for a long while, and this year I thought I would write a retrospective on the work that has gone into TouhouFest 2026, and a look to the future. It's a looong read! There's almost too much to yap about! no-bull.sh/blog/2026/07...

there's a stretch of leftist ideology that seems incompatible with having any agency in the world, outside of fiction/media. the systems running the world are impure and learning how they work makes you suspicious at least

The border to Gensokyo stirs once more... TouhouFest 2027 is on the horizon! We'll be announcing our 2027 event and badge sale dates later this month. Stay tuned and keep your spell cards ready. #TouhouFest #TouhouProject #TouhouFest2027

Been thinking about it for a while, but I really want out of corporate America by the end of 2030. I still think my formative years of my career has been spent building something helpful in making roads safer. But I'm tired. Of the rat race. Of the politics. Of the cookie cutter NPC coworkers.

*LOUD EXTERNAL SCREAMING*

you ought to include the followup post which points out that touhou has been doing this the whole time

they're right and they should say it

I was staffing TouhouFest again last weekend! I've never worked harder in my life, but everyone's smiles made it all worth it.

Just got an email for a bug filed titled "Temporarily disable cross source verification for the FIFA World Cup". FUCK FIFA ALL MY HOMIES HATE FIFA

Hold tech stocks until the bubble bursts, or sell them to buy SF Bay Area house that then crashes along with the bubble bursting?
