@nasser IMO this speaks more to LLMs not actually being able to replace humans long term. For some stuff maybe, but they fundamentally can't do the things experienced programmers do. 🤷 Even IBM is starting to hire juniors again cause they realized the golden goose is BS

@nasser It's definitely the lower skilled developers that get the most excited by it. But then they get trapped in that they don't actually develop the skills they need.

Baking is Alchemy. Soup is Witchcraft. Frying is Chaos Magic

My smart ring says I gotike 10 hours of sleep last night. Much needed given I only got like six the two nights before

@thejikz @futurebird Say more! I would have thought stick bugs would be easier to wrangle given their size

Reflect Orbital wants to destroy the night sky to deliver "sunlight as a service". SpaceX wants to destroy Low Earth Orbit to launch one million "AI datacentres"

The only way to formally protest these two ideas is to file a comment with the US FCC, which is horribly complicated, but the American Astronomical Society has detailed instructions posted here: aas.org/posts/advocacy/2026/02

Comments due March 6 for SpaceX and March 9 for Reflect Orbital. Write! Write! Write!

Thinkin of traversing the graph of all possible states of a permutation. 🤤

Finally beat this raid boss in Borderlands 3 after 4 nights of dying constantly on mayem level 10. Painful but somehow we did it with two people

So thankful for unit tests being a thing that programmers make 😭 Doing a +-1k LoC PR and they thankfully caught some blunders

TIL there's a thing we're calling, "pathological demand avoidance" that is probably a better description of what was being called, "oppositional defiant disorder" lol I'm also OK with just calling us anti-authoritarian FWIW

If I remove the lid to their tank they could try to run up the side and over the edge, but then I would see them. They don't do this. They either wait on the lid, flattened into a crack motionless until it's removed (then they make a break for it)

Or they get on the brush and stay motionless (not running up it) until I put it down.

And a new gambit? playing dead so I sweep them out with the graveyard. (!)

They keep getting smarter.

@Forbearance I was imagining it would be speedrunners trying to do the course themselves

Quadrobics on the dog obstacle course must go hard

There should be speedrunning but for those dog obstacle courses.

Yeah we're a "watches dog shows instead of the olympics" sort of household :P

Hey All, I made a header only C++ library where it's 1 line of code to init, then you can start writing to pixels on the screen.

I call it thirteen.h, as it is inspired by the simplicity of the 13h days.

Examples include a mandelbrot viewer and a playable mine sweeper game.
