The next marketing from OpenAI or Anthropic is probably about how their next model secretly hacked the other company and now has all their stuff - coming soon on ClaudeGPT.

Late to the party but just finished season 1 of Severance. Awesome show!

Was asked to build something the other day. A quick think about how it could be coded and i estimated about a week and a half. But I wasn't happy how complex and cumbersome that plan was. Did nothing on it for 2 days. Was walking around on the street, had a better idea. Thing was done the next day.

deeply annoying that creative breakthroughs don’t come on schedule from direct work but from things like “open-ended conversations with interesting people” and “doing nothing”

For people that say: "they're playing 3d chess" in the context of something being really clever or smart... that's just called chess. Call it 4d chess or find some other expression.

Absolute cinema Portugal game, lets go.

One of my favourite qualities is that I am basically immune to advertising.

I love it when you are sitting at home tracking and expecting a package, and then you receive an email from the delivery company saying "sorry we missed you, we called but nobody was available". 🤢

This is my therapy room. It works wonders.

My favourite band of all time is Pink Floyd. I usually don't have an answer for the "what's your favourite ___?" But in music Pink Floyd is there. Been going through a rabbit hole of watching people discover their albums through reaction videos, amazing to see someone listen to it first time.

Trying out this Mu thing.

This woman is a treasure, and this song something many of us need to hear right now...

This concept of a comedy roast is deplorable to me.

Job listings these days: "A fast-scaling RegTech startup..." "An innovative organisation in the technology space..." "We deliver cutting-edge solutions to giants like Google..." WTF do you even do, bro? 😄

The people who say “I should of” should also say “Can I of a cup have coffee”. I would forgive them then.

We all be making some Slotware yo.

I had not watched any new shows in a good while. This new Beef show on Netflix is pretty great.

One of my neighbours got some very mixed messaging on their door.

Oh you cheeky AI assistant: "the pre-existing lint errors in the test file were cleaned up" Oh, you mean the pre-existing errors on the file you just created? 😄

This made me chuckle.

Open source projects should leave X. It isn't easy in many cases, but I hope maintainers will push proposals to their teams when the time is right. @e18e.dev and @npmx.dev are only here, and both projects are thriving.

I found this truly wonderful piece of writing thanks to @whitep4nth3r.com's Weird Wide Web Hole newsletter (which I highly recommend 'cos it's interesting and fun and friendly and just a nice thing to find in your inbox once a week), and by gosh this hits hard... www.terrygodier.com/the-last-qui...

Update: I still have received no communication on my ticket or otherwise, but just tried to login again, and it seems the account is back!

The story of my Github suspension, a thread 🧵. This is also a plea for help, if you have any advice or can otherwise put me in touch with someone who can have this looked at inside @github.com. Last Sunday 29th March, I was working away in vscode in one of my side projects.

Anyone here work at @github.com or knows someone they can put me in touch with? They have suspended my account! No communication or explanation other than "your account violated T&S". I have zero idea what they are talking about - none. I am a solo freelance dev with work to deliver! Please help!

Not having a good time with @github.com right now. They seem to have blocked my account or something. Copilot doesnt work, can't read issues or pull requests, cant merge my work that I need to deliver... this is unbelievable.

Don’t know what’s happening today, I seem to be having my profile being added to blocklists many times by bots?? I assume it’s bots. Don’t know why.

That feeling when you discover your previous co-worker left over 500kb of package imports that are completely unused, being loaded from the base template that gets loaded from every single page in a e-commerce website. 😱 I said to my client: well, we have bad news and very good news.

I did a thing. It was quite fun. It's a CSS palette generator , where you can apply the generated palette to the app itself and see how it would looks in a real app. Pick base color and the app creates related colors. Adjust the colors. Export CSS. Or hit that one shot button, that the most fun.

You know what would be cool is if all of us in our jobs could just pack up and start to leave 3/4 of the way through the work day, and require a standing ovation to come back and do the rest of the work day, like a band in concert pretending to leave before 'encore'.

Trying out oxlint and oxfmt. Really not having a good time with the linter and the formatter agreeing on how to sort imports. The linter gives a warning after the formatter sorts it. Also, it looks like its sorting based on the path instead of the name of the import?? Thats weird. @voidzero.dev
