Talking to a Predator: ā€œSo you’re a professional headhunter, can you help me find a new job?ā€

My baby has left th nest 😭

This was a terrible week to release my line of wax-based baseball caps. 🫠

Check out I Don't Write About Girls by Marcin feat. Ichika Nito on Amazon Music https://music.amazon.com/albums/B0D5DCLF4L?trackAsin=B0D5DCLF4M&do=play&ts=1750437613&ref=dm_sh_4hj6HTTKIHglFyQ1M8C1XJgA0

After years of saving, I've finally purchased my dream car.

Look at my babies! They grow up so fast.

The Verge’s open graph description savagely drags Death Stranding with ā€œHideo Kojima’s Death Stranding is being turned into a video game.ā€ 🤣 I should give the game another shot, but 2 hours of ā€œcinematicā€ at the start is too much for this old man.

Me: ā€œCool, new #dotnet #oss library, let me read the docs" ** Five minutes later ** Me: ā€œThese docs are all ChatGPT-generated, and half the methods and examples are hallucinated. I'm out.ā€

If I were Canada right now, I’d set up vaccination clinics at the United States border and charge U.S. visitors to get inoculated when they cross. I imagine Vaccination Tourism is going to spike in the next few years.

Reading an article about #react and can't help but think about The Simpsons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b97zJxKEqAk

Let’s play, ā€œIs that sound my robot vacuum or an axe murderer?ā€ I’ll let you know in a few minutes.

šŸ”„ Hot take, but managing middleware order in #aspnetcore is busted. It would be nice if there were less granularity and more ā€œwhen you add this, it's going to register in the right place every timeā€. Case in point:

after 25 years of a career of trying and mostly failing to make the world a better place with software it is truly soul-wrenchingly exhausting to watch a substantial plurality of the entire software industry decide that actually, it is more lucrative and easier to make the world worse instead

I just had the horrific thought of AI middle managers and I need to accelerate my path to retirement as soon as possible.

I am always fascinated by the list sizing in #dotnet. At some point, it doubles in capacity enough to relieve some memory pressure. Obviously, the reprieve depends on the collection's rate of growth. If you're watching perf tools and a list causes the leak, it may flatline after a while.

Benefits of remote work: I get to microwave fish, and nobody complains about it.

God to a European: ā€œI’ve created the marvel of the universe and everything in it, how would you rate my work?ā€ European: ā€œ7 out of 10ā€

While technically a correct fix, this #dotnet fix is about to break a lot of deployments. This was just deployed in the latest release of .NET 8 and 9. https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/pull/61623/files

A Robin family has decided to perch on top of my patio light. Two parent birds are taking shifts to care for two baby birds now. My backyard is a nature documentary now.

Take me now, Jesus, Buddha, Satan, any divine entity.

I’m still confused as to why protobuf and gRPC are so highly downloaded in the NuGet stats. I can’t imagine they’ve gotten that wide of an adoption in the #dotnet space, but maybe I'm wrong. Are you folks using gRPC?

People keep wanting me to update ConsoleTables, so I have to do what the people ask. A new release of ConsoleTables (2.7.0) is out on NuGet. Thanks to everyone who helped make the changes. Cheers.

I’ve been scanning through NUGET, and consulting firms have figured out they can get quality backlinks by publishing some bespoke ā€œdev kitā€ that no one will use. It’s exacerbated by the package sprawl and ā€œseparation of concernsā€ style solutions that plague .NET, so their DevKit sprawls over […]

Reading an article about big tech being ā€œcustomer zeroā€ for AI, I can’t help but think of this Simpsons episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CXhRjkgLUQ

I just saw a post saying someone let their agent AI run for 19+ hours to solve a problem. Is that the expectation? I’m going to predict a future scandal: A global consulting firm has been caught charging human hours for agentic AI elapsed time. If I were an unscrupulous consulting firm, I […]

Fighting the urge not to make more homemade granola.

If I had to put money on where the next BUILD will be hosted, it would likely Austin, Texas, or deep in the heart of TRUMP country, to pander to the current administration and the Republican Party. https://mastodon.social/@verge/114659662793100676

"Apple’s new AI feature can identify what’s on your #iPhone screen" Also, #Apple’s new AI Feature…

When a customer solves their own issue after being their rubber duck, but you still get the credit for helping.

I don’t know about this #macOS #Tahoe glass UI. It's giving me real #Windows Vista vibes.

Real, Lord Farquaad energy in this title. ā€œSome of you may die, but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.ā€ https://mastodon.social/@verge/114653843410415067

Every developer has uttered the phrase, ā€œOops, I created a content management system,ā€ at least once in their career. šŸ˜…

I wonder if AI’s effectiveness will speed up the inevitable death of some ecosystems. If folks want the ā€œbestā€ (and I mean least shit) Agentic AI experience, they will probably gravitate towards more populated communities where the training data can produce a semblance of ā€œworkingā€. This will […]

What in the fresh hell is this movie?!

I’ve been trying to ā€œvibe codeā€ a couple of things over the last few days, but I had to fall back on using my brain (like a sucker!). I should keep some of this coding knowledge knocking around a little longer before cat videos and memes fill those parts of my brain. My vibe must be off :P

We have now reached the part of the gangster movie, where they are fighting over who gets what share of the money from the bank robbery.

Anthropic should update its website after taking that sweet, sweet Department of Defense money.

I don’t know if it’s true, but it feels true. About 80% of traffic to ASP.NET is caused by the auto-linking of the name.

When we released post editing for #Mastodon, we first released a version that supported processing and displaying edits incoming from other servers, before releasing a version that flipped a switch allowing anyone to make edits. We're taking an identical approach with quote posts, as the […]
