The absolute hot garbage that is the LinkedIn feed is literally proving the Dead Internet Theory true. Every single suggested post is either clearly AI garbage, or someone trying to sell you AI garbage, and every reply is some form of "Very Informative" or "Very Helpful" or "Very {adjective}".

(1/2) Sometimes when I make a post I get some random instant followers, and then I'll look at them and see they're following like 30,000 accounts. So, clearly they've got some sort of hook reading the public timeline and are just auto-following everyone as a marketing tactic.

Absolutely nothing makes you appreciate the programmers of eld like writing assembly code and thinking about all of the work which was accomplished with such an incredibly tedious and fussy language. I'm doing this for fun, but they had to do this for hours and years on end.

Trick Weekes re-posting Mark Hamill quote-replying to a Delaney King thread is just such an absolutely wild chain of people I follow on this site interacting.

Anyone shocked by the whole Dragon Age thing and the rapidly impending death of Bioware is probably not old enough to recall the the fate of Ultima and Origin. Or Bullfrog, for that matter. EA is gonna EA.

My quest for figuring out the best file structure for my RPG to support both official and user data has somehow turned into me writing a custom file format in rust. So that's a rabbit hole I was absolutely not planning to go down. At least it's something extra for my CV, I guess.

I've made my TTRPG application so trivial to mod that you can hotload mod files into the game at roughly 10ns per item. Your GM could send you a file with 10,000 new items, and it would load in approx 0.2 seconds with initial file read costs the next time you open the item database. Good stuff.

I guess since we're all supposed to be "developing in public" these days to prove our basic competence and to gain some kind of following, I'll just start throwing demo videos on here. Spent part of the last few days hand-coding reusable SVG interface components for the new app. Relatively pleased.

The number of steps required to do literally anything in a cloud provider is truly maddening if you have ever worked directly on dedicated hardware and know the thing that just took 4 hours and 96 different web forms could've been done in 20 minutes on any Linux server.

Decided to start rebuilding an app that was previously Electron based in Tauri instead. So far, I vastly prefer the actual workflow. The IPC syntax is way cleaner, hot-reloading works out of the box, and I like having access to both typescript and rust at the same time. Early days still, but SFSG

I am officially done with university. It took 3 years with basically 0 time off to do anything else but that and work, but it's done. Now the questions remains if this was actually worth the effort or money. Time will tell, I guess.
