@arichtman Java moment.
I hate LLMs. It's so infuriating to use them. They're so inconsistant. They follow just enough instructions to make you think they could work but not enough to actually work.
Submitting my meat-dev'd code to the slop dev hackathon >:)

We felt we had to make this

Edit: Added additional alt text to describe the fediverse symbol 🩷
Edit 2: Added more description to the alt text. Hopefully this is helpful to folks who wanted more details about the girls and the room they're in

@0xabad1dea I had some thoughts and they were too long for a Mastodon reply post

A NASA astronaut has captured an electrifying image of Earth from space, featuring a gigantic, jellyfish-shaped "sprite" of red lightning shooting upwards above a thunderstorm in North America. The rare phenomenon is still poorly understood, despite being studied for more than 30 years.

Cilantro + cumin + garlic + tomato has got to be the most goated combo. Obsessed lately.
@ricmac Profit hungry corpos will never want open standards that empower people. All they want is to trap attention and feed you ads / mine your data. There's no "new business model" that would be different from that. Small instances federating together is the way to go even if it doesn't 'scale' the way corpo tech does.
@brandon oh wow yeah this is awesome, ty
@ellyxir Last time I did something like this I just read their source code in devtools and injected a script in the console to simulate clicks with JavaScript :P
I've been playing the original cookie clicker lately and I keep getting this intense urge to automate it with a basic script that'd choose which items to spend cookies on next based on the current costs/payouts of all the buildings and upgrades. Sadly I have to actually get work done :P

Its not just some purity thing. It's much more about reducing cognitive load everywhere I can on the web. When I see underlined text (ideally some shade of blue) I know I can click that to show a different thing. All the behavior is something expected.
This goes for buttons & forms. Being clever and doing things differently than every other website just makes people have to think about what they're interacting with, even if only for a split second. That's not innovation, it's unnecessary friction.
Great article spelling out the disadvantages to heavy React based websites. https://infrequently.org/2025/06/conferences-clarity-and-smokescreens/
It's amazing how many ways English lets you politely express "Go fuck yourself".
Low key wanna make a streaming parser thingie in Rust where the gimmick is that I take slices for the tokens instead of allocating strings ir w/e. Nothing to use it for in the short term sadly 🤷
