@thomasfuchs Except when the OS updates and breaks everything every few years. 😭

Google and Apple are singlehandedly keeping developers employed by forcing companies to change everything to keep up with breaking changes / app store requirements.

Kinda why I like shitty web apps with little JS in them.

IMO react makes stuff more annoying for everything except dynamically updated lists. Low key I miss Angular style data binding libraries.

Also apparently backbone is still a thing? backbonejs.org/

Structured Success

Groups: "Let's go around and have everyone share a fun fact."

Neurotypical: [A fact about themselves that's quirky in the most beige, unoffensive way possible]

Autistic: [A decontextualized deep slice about one of their special interests... maybe followed by a series of similar facts as they get increasingly excited]

ADHD'ers: [A decontextualized obscure connection that they made between two seemingly unconnected things... followed by a 30 minute attempt to provide the missing context]

I was corrected for saying “real name” when I meant “legal name.” So, a reminder:

Your LEGAL name is a name that identifies you for official purposes.

Your REAL name is the name by which a practitioner of the occult arts could conjure you in a summoning circle and bind you to complete a task.

@alina I use nano in the same way. 🤪

If I need a tool I call it from bash. (e.g. linters)

I wish there was an easy way to use LSP from bash in a way that doesn't interrupt my flow

If it's socially acceptable for dogs and cats to get the Zoomies, it should be socially acceptable for me too.

I should get to stop whatever I'm working on, and run around being crazy for 5 minutes, and everyone should laugh and say I'm cute.

After writing about people going into delusional spirals with ChatGPT and having what look like mental breakdowns, I wanted to understand exactly how it happens.

A corporate recruiter in Toronto who spent 3 weeks convinced by ChatGPT that he was essentially Tony Stark from Iron Man, agreed to share his transcript after breaking free of the delusion.

We analyzed the transcript & shared it with experts. Now you can see the interactions & how delusional spirals happen:

@aparrish maximum profit is a bad motivation but it's truly wild how many of the problems with our society are because we *specifically* chose to dictate everything by a motivation of "maximum profit on a window of exactly one-quarter year"

I fucking hate software updates. I hate that software became a perishable good, and with a short shelf life. Once installed, keep refrigerated and use within 7 days.

@brandon do you have anything published for it? :o I've been curious to get into uiua. Is this project the one you were talking about at the splinternet event?

@brandon Nice! Yeah my previous chorded experience was the tap strap 2 and that was way too inconsistant to be usable. I'm still learning the basics so I'm not sure if I can code on this thing yet.

I've upgraded my gargoyle level. Now when I go to the grocery store I'm practicing my Twiddler 4 typing on my head mounted display running samsung dex from my phone. If I get good enough I'll swap the phone for a khadas edge 2.
