I think my philosophy when making software is that it should work for people with zero money or no bank account / credit card.

I know it's not a popular mindset to be in since money and profit is everything in the tech world.

I think it comes from growing up as a kid with no disposable income or access to anything but my shitty computer.

I'd rather support people with almost nothing than people with latest and greatest tech gizmos and spare cash for subscription services. 😅

I'm gonna use this yhread as a way to keep track of links to read and like my own posts when I get around to them.

Gosh I wish Ottawa had clubs that are still open at 7 am 😭

So apparently everyone thought I was wearing weird sunglasses during my talk but it was actually my head mounted display

Would folks find it useful if I wrote a short blog post about the rules of thumb I use to account for when I build apps?

For people just getting introduced to accessibility concepts, the number of resources can be overwhelming for people who don't know where to start. These 10 tips from Lireo Designs can be a good way to introduce your team to the basics.

Who needs a teleprompter when you have a screen glued to your face?

Tried one of those by the minute rented scooter thingies for the first time today. Ama

Fuck. Not a good time to have insomnia. 😭 Gotta present in like 12 hours and be up in like 4

we need to stop letting them use the term vibe coding and take it as our own, real vibe coding would be opening up an ide at like 4 am while having dim lights listening to the most autistic music on the planet with plushies on ur desk as emotional support

Ideas are a sort of CRDT and human interaction is a sync engine.

Something I'm learning in my adventures in Linux is that it's vital to have a second, working computer with you in order to search for ways to fix the thing you've just massively broken.

AI speech synthesis is neat and all but I fucking love the way the espeak voice banks sound.

(I often still don't understand the topic but at least they got to have fun infodumping :3)

Time to see how long it takes to download and install several gigs of Android tooling over hotel wifi 🤪

Glad I brought my Viture so I could escape into cyberspace for a bit while I charge by deck.

Bro I'm sooo eepy 😭 is so good though. Loving all the street art and food.

Two different approaches to debugging a software problem:

The Sudoku approach: stare at the limited set of clues you have, and think harder and harder about them until you find a way to deduce something useful.

The Minesweeper approach: don't even try to figure out the solution from only the clues you have right now. Instead, focus on finding a way to acquire another clue, and then using that to get another, and so on. Eventually you've collected so many clues that the answer is obvious.

Sometimes the Sudoku approach is necessary, because you've got all the clues you're ever going to get. But I think my new motto is "Never Sudoku a problem when you can Minesweeper it."

Programmers are usually fed a steady diet of features and bug fixes. But occasionally they get to work on performance problems. This development methodology is known as intermittent fasting.
