Seriously I need to install like three utilities just to get my drawing tablet recognized

My partner was getting a bunch of ads trying to load a bread recipe using Chrome so I got them to use Agregore Mobile instead since it has a blocker and privacy features by default :O

Got up early and did some house chores, bit of bedrot at noon, played minecraft with the homies, gonna make some pizza and watch some telly. Past me would be pretty happy with me.

typical dev: i'm gonna wire it up. dynamo db to ec2 to lambdas to nextjs to react to redux to graphql, and it'll only cost me $30+/mo to host this website

me: *living in the walls of michaelsoft, publishing web apps that cost nothing to run and nothing to use, because github forgot that github pages exists*

Attention Citizens:

The concept of "time off" is misleading.
What you think of as leisure is, in fact, mandatory recreation for overall increased productivity.
Failure to achieve maximum relaxation during relaxation hours is considered treasonous laziness.

Thank you for your compulsory leisure.

Did a presentation yesterday about the LLM stuff I've been doing in Agregore at a meetup focused on indigenous usage of AI and local training/inference.

I think it's helped me clarify some of the "why" on this work internally so I'm gonna work on a blog about it.

dear software developers,

no, the opposite of "yes" was not, is not and never will be "ask me later".

sincerely fuck you

Also, here's all my LLM generated apps publushed to the

Dreams 

Had a dream I was interviewing to work at google and they locked me in a room with five other people for a week and only one of us was going to be allowed forward. They had neat vr glasses though which was cool.

Be suspicious of anything that requires a cloud service to operate where the server software is not self-hostable. Especially one that costs over $1000 dollarydoos.

The reason that I can be effective at work while being ADHD is that I am very vulnerable to nerd sniping and I happen to be constantly nerd sniped into solving work related tasks :P

I run into trouble every time I try to use generative AI for something other than generating a vague outline or summarizing some content or translating from some text to another format of text. I just don't think it'll save us from doing the thinking and processing stuff that humans are best suited for. Else you'd spend more time trying to direct it than you would doing it yourself (assuming you could do it yourself I guess?) outside a few small tasks.

Maybe that's a good thing though?

Ok, a question for #database #dbms nerds. Many years ago I worked on a join order optimizer that used a heuristic formula to estimate the number of rows produced by an equijoin, based on the number of rows in the two tables being joined and the number of distinct values in the join keys. This formula came from an academic paper, but I can't remember what the formula was or find the paper. Does this ring a bell for anyone? Boosts appreciated...

STOP DOING UPDATES

• SOFTWARE WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO CHANGE

• YEARS OF PROGRAMMING yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for PATCHES

• Wanted your software to change anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "INSTALLING SOMETHING NEW"

• "Yes please give me A DIFFERENT UI for no reason. Please LOSE ALL MY SETTINGS and re-enable all the telemetry." - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

Being around folks that are mostly self named makes using government ID feel like using a secret code name. Like yes, for the purposes of this covert interaction (food delivery) my name is "Generic human name".

I'm finally ready to release my desktop image dithering app, Dithertime! 🌟

It's more accurate, correct, and extensive than any other image dithering software out there. And it's fast too!

I've been working on it nights and weekends for a year, and I'm excited to have created a paid app for the first time.

Check it out at makew0rld.itch.io/dithertime 👈

(boosts welcome!)

Been using this tool a lot lately to generate small code snippets so I can skip looking up CSS animation syntax or how python does list comprehensions.
