Hope MacBook Air M4 rumors are true. Hoping for ability to support 2 externals with lid open for total of 3. Performance would be a bonus. #apple #mac #macbookair #tech

In IntelliJ IDEA / JetBrains IDEs, if you use Git staging area, uncheck "Commit All when Nothing is Staged" otherwise you could accidentally commit (& push) all your unstaged files like I just did 🤦‍♂️ IMO shouldn't be possible to commit unstaged files #java #jetbrains #git #dev #softwaredev

Scoop: The DOGE website that Elon Musk spun up to track cuts to the federal government is insecure and pulls from a database that can be edited by anyone. So, someone did. 🔗 www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

I like to call our SAML support “SAML Jackson” (it does use the Jackson Java library). Now I want to call it “Uncle SAML Jackson”

Listen... It's not worth looking into why Crypto and FTX had their largest ad spends during the Super Bowl about a month before it all crashed down... It's PROBABLY nothing.

Kendrick Lamar was excellent. Going to rewatch that again soon.

This is why they're attacking science and education: if you can only win with disinformation, data become a threat.

Kinda wild that the 2019 Nvidia Shield TV Pro has been $200 with only modest discounts during sales (currently $180). I have one, but don’t use it much.

I've played a bit more of Marvel Rivals and I'm enjoying it. Playing on PC w/ kb+m. I used to play Overwatch 1, so much of my experience from that transfers over. I kinda want to give Overwatch 2 a try now as I never played it and might be interesting to compare. #gaming #pcgaming #marvelrivals

Finally got around to playing #Nintendo #Switch Sports with my son. Some of the sports are fun, but not something we'd want to spend a lot of time playing. Joycon motion controls are just not accurate enough. I suspect the Wiimote was better for this? I have a Wii U, but no Wiimotes #gaming

You know what would be great is if these weird assholes could get to know exactly one trans person and see that they're just people trying to get by like everyone else

Got a Gigabyte M28U 4k@144Hz IPS monitor for a $330 a few months ago and my return window is closing in a few days, and I'm keeping it. Really great for the price and my use case which is mostly work on Macs with a bit of PC/PS5 gaming. www.rtings.com/monitor/revi...

The bots are annoying me so much that part of me wants to just beg Bluesky for a job so I can write some tools deal with them. But not in an Elon "I'm going to rid Twitter of bots" kind of way, in an "I actually understand how computers work" kind of way.
