Wallet for an agent? I don’t know if people get this but most people are worried about whether THEY can pay their grocery and electric bill not whether their agent can.

I still wonder often why Benjen Stark joined the watch.

Probably a day or two away from ready for release, but the native React support for ASP.NET Core MVC is here if anyone wants to have a play. I'm just trying to nail a bunch of convenience bits to make it super easy to use for people used to NextJs etc. github.com/davidwhitney...

Today I did something I thought I’d never do…I used a labeled break statement in a for loop. I hated ever sec of it but it works. 🤷🏻‍♂️

We really do live in a world that is largely run by people who have a “rules for thee, but not for me” attitude and are continually running a psy op on you to believe you should value the opposite.

I am always amazed at what people in positions of leadership and management get away with.

Every time…why is it a godforsaken hero’s journey to create a sharepoint site?

Today I learned you can just use math to make sound. I am sure this is obvious to many but I have no background in music or really any experience with digital audio and signal processing. So create a two note chime felt pretty cool.

Wait a minute...that isn't...man gen AI sucks 🤣

I've spent the better part of the last 2 hours fighting through resolving dependency vulnerabilities in an npm package and trying to make CI run successfully for the package across a number of node versions. No wonder people come to feel a certain type of way about JavaScript and it's ecosystem.

This week might be a good week not to look at your portfolio a whole lot.

Adding a visualizer to termato cause I thought it would be cool. Lucky for me cava exists. There is no way I would have been able to figure out the audio processing without having that source code available to read.

Challenged myself to hack together a pomodoro timer for my streams tonight. I made the deadline, but I'm going to pay the price for staying up late in the morning. Your more than welcome to give a go yourself too! It is written in Rust btw. github.com/StevanFreebo...

I do believe everyone is entitled to their opinion, but quite frankly if you aren't "on the field" and "playing the same game" as me I am just not interested in hearing yours.

Life is way more fun when you are a fan of more things.

Proud dad moment…my oldest has experienced the awesomeness of Skyrim.

Spun up Omarchy in a hyper-v VM. Yeah...that will make you feel like a fish out of water. Lot like using Neovim for the firs time. I can see the appeal though.

I feel like I can tell a lot about a person based on whether or not they ever took the time to evolve a Magikarp into a Gyarados.

I’ve been struggling with my stream randomly disconnecting for several months. Yesterday I turned off IPv6 on the adapter and set the registry key on windows to prefer IPv4. Streamed for 3 and a half hours today without a single issue. Gawd that is annoying…

My son signed up for tackle football again. His first practice is on his birthday. I encouraged him to go because he made a commitment and I think it’s important to follow through. Seems like a small thing but most of parenting is giving kids chances to do the right thing in low stakes environments.

Ouch…but at least those early investors found some greater fools I guess.

"Coding is solved." "SWE will be automated." 😅🤣🙄

I have a ton of empathy and sympathy for medical workers…but I’d genuinely pay extra for providers who don’t treat me like I am anything but a bother and interruption in their day.

I implemented a design pattern today. I always get so excited when I come across a problem and get to use something I've learned, but never had a real world excuse to pull that particular tool out of my bag. Going to make a video about it.

Obviously the first thing a quality engineer learning C figures out how to do is add tests and generate a coverage report. I know people love to shit on code coverage as a metric, but for me the visualization helps guide me and think about what I've tested and what I haven't.

One of the things that I just can’t buy from the AI evangelists is that you can separate the act of writing from the act of thinking and understanding.

Honestly I don’t think I can afford AI coding. I’ve not yet reached anything resembling financial independence so every next dollar I earn is far better spent invested than on tokens to generate code I could write myself.

This was a lot of fun and yet also pain full to write. The code is currently gawd awfully ugly, likely a few bugs, and absolutely no tests. Probably only works on my machine, but I made it and I learned a lot on the way. github.com/StevanFreebo...

Things are getting serious now. Got it rendering to raylib.

I was reading an email advertising an online learning platform for teaching folks how to code. One of the selling points was "you don't have to worry about installing or breaking anything." I couldn't help think that those are the experiences you often learn the most from...breaking things.

I've never been so excited to get something printed to the terminal.
