I couldn't find this in time for #alienday but spent an unreasonable amount of time making this silly thing— :3 original video zuuuu-min @stance_Land_mk7 from X

Came across an error when testing creating a new profile in my project. Mongoose FindOne() no longer accepts a callback, so it was crashing the web app when trying to create a new profile. With a bit of googling and minimal headaches, I got it working using async/await.

Small win for the day. Got a new route setup in my nodejs express project first try! No errors no crashing the site. Me and node have been working well together lately.

My least favorite service calls without a doubt are printers. These machines are evil and have a mind of their own. They'll work one minute and throw a handful of errors the next. I'd rather work on a Dell server running Windows Server 2008 R2 with a corrupt RAID 1 config.

Stop calling A.I. slop “art” and real human-created works “content”

Been staring blankly at my code for the last 10 minutes, with only one thought in my head : “huh?” I think I need more coffee.

After a little break, I'm ready to get back to coding regularly and focus more on project based learning. Starting with my main project I've focused on for awhile. I'll finally tackle setting up a reset password function. definitely...maybe... I hope I can get it working. #100Devs

Been feeling stuck in my coding journey. Learning new things doesn’t get me excited like it used to. Another freelance client dropped out. And I’m just feeling discouraged. So it’s time for a break. But, I did get a sample box of Japanese snacks to make me feel better. So there’s that.

I love my job as the guy who adds a fake “keep me signed in” checkbox to every website that does nothing

Straight up facts

My pomodoro timer is my cat. She’s always telling me to take a break from coding or other work and demands cuddles and playtime. Here she is playing lazily before getting the zoomies after I stopped recording

Oh cool, Nine Inch Nails has a new tour. Let me just check the ticket prices real quick….oh oh no.

These Dune (1984) posters by Ryoichi Ikegami are fantastic. I'd frame and hang these.

Easter with the parents was nice. I helped my Mom get into her MacBook Pro that she got locked out of. My Dad wanted help setting up new laptop. But I recommended returning it as is the slowest thing I’ve seen in years. And a brand I never heard of. Took it home to do a factory reset.

Spending the evening with my friends playing Repo. Also, my cat loves the game and wants to help.

Spending the weekend relaxing. Sunday will be with family. Sprinkling in some coding and anki study. Excited that Flork of Cows book from @florkofcows.bsky.social has arrived. It’s gorgeous!

Went to a local networking meetup for small business owners. Got at least 2 decent leads for freelance web dev work. Talked with one owner and her website is being powered by feather light. Never had heard of it. Supposedly does hosting, e-commerce, email, ect. Seems fishy…

I haven’t been coding much these last few days. Feeling a bit burnt out and needed a break. Hope to get back into a new project next week. Just spent some time today reading the anime.js and vue.js documentation. While making sure to give my cat lots of cuddles

I’m really excited to use anime.js in my projects. The documentation is well done, so it shouldn’t be too hard to learn and use animejs.com

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

I dislike Windows 11 I DESPISE Windows 11 S mode

Working on codewars challenges and linked list learning. Did some anki review and added cards to my DSA deck for study. Picked up some Pokémon cards as I want to get back into it. Haven’t opened a card pack since I was 10. Pretty excited to get back into collecting. My wallet is scared.

Computer programs started sucking when their installers stopped calling themselves 'Wizards', tbh. I miss computers being just a little bit whimsical.

One of the coolest things you can do right now is commission a real artist.

There’s no such thing as A.I “art.” It’s a soulless amalgamation of plagiarised data. That is the antithesis of art.

legend of zelda movie better have a scene where link walks into a house and smashes all the pots takes the money and leaves and the movie continues as if that was very normal

Me:

It really is that simple❤️ #studioghibli #ghibli #hayaomiyazaki

Was checking out the website for City the Animation for more info and such, and it has the best button I've ever seen on a webpage in my life.

It may be cold enough to see your own breath, but it’s still technically Spring. So I had to get out in the sunshine and clear the yard and garden.

Today is Mister Rogers' birthday. Today is Big Bird's birthday. And spring has officially sprung. A beautiful day in the neighborhood, indeed.

Curse you integer overflow, you got me again!! Even with it warning me about it in the challenge description, I keep forgetting to add a check in these leetcode challenges to make sure I don't exceed the 32 bit signed integer range. Screenshot of my code shows the overflow check I had to add.

I can sing a 30 year old song word for word but can’t remember what I came into the living room for.
