If you’re just learning about the mohs/hardness scale and thinking “huh yeah well what do they cut diamonds with?” The answer is the shepard avocados.

Good advice from Jamie Sanson jamie.sanson.dev/infinitely-m... I like to phrase this as "don't give people enough rope to hang themselves with". Spot on. APIs are your UX. Start with the experience you want and work backwards.

I don't know if all social media is just dead or my posts are just shit. Probably social media is in decline.

This is really good, ESLint is listening to feedback about the sharp edges it introduced in V9. This looks much better: eslint.org/blog/2025/03...

It’s better to be approximately right than exactly wrong. Code review early, code review often.

You may think that things like your employment contract, the clock, or the construct of time decide when your work day is done, but you’re wrong… it is dogs who decide.

Yes why would we do that??? It’s way quicker to book the nearest appointment (a week away) and then pay additional out of pocket expenses on top of Medicare and then wait an extra hour because the doctor is running late. How do you beat that gold star service?

Watched The Gorge on Apple TV last night and without spoiling it I love how they explained how the antagonists came to be. I love that and hate when they don’t.

Finally got around to setting up my retro gaming station in the corner of my office again. For ease of use and superior UI, I switched over to Batocera from Retropie. Added some headphones and mood lighting for sound and fun.
