5 hours into playing Cloudpunk and I accidentally figured out I could access the world map the whole time and could see more than just the minimap to navigate 😝

Sadly despits my willpowers insistance on working late yet another night my body and mind refuse to focus on code.

High key I think corporate advertising is one of the biggest plagues on humanity in the last 100 years. A lot of the awful AI shit we're seeing stems from it as well as a lot of the shady data collection.

I feel it'd be for the collective consciousness if this concept were banned entirely or at least stunted to the point it's not commercially viable.

"Prompt engineering" this local copilot to actually do what I want. I'm gonna try to treat it like a codereview instead of "instructions" for what it should do. Apparently prepending an argument to a list of function calls is too big brain unless I word it just right. Though it's also just a 4GB model so what more can I expect

Killer feature of the web: Opening the same app in two tabs so you can be navigated to two views at once.

Sad again about how single window applications are the norm. So much screen real estate wasted and so much multitasking limited just cause the app decided it should handle tabs / views and only let you load a single window.

Playing Cloudpunk for the first time. It's a neat game. I was expecting it to have racing minigames and escort quests or something but it's mostly story driven with some open world exploration and trinket collection. The little npc convos and side quests really make it for me.

One thing I find fun is seeing people underestimate me and seeing the change in their face and poature when they reevaluate their assumptions.

At my first local meetup in like 5 years. It's wild how the scene has changed completely and it's nice to see some familiar faces despite it.

Thunderbird's spam detection thing is hella busted. Kinda wish there were fewer features.
