I love beeing a creepy snake witch. My ball python had a blast being a living hat and sniffin my eyeball and nearly getting stuck in my hair bun 🤪

My heart drops when I see a user in the wild posting chat GPT answers to creative "what if" questions instead of spending a bit of time thinking for fun. Or when they quote chatgpt as an authority on something after asking it a leading question and having zero actual knowledge to verify it.

Streamx is a cool library but the documentation skipps a bunch of important details. It'd be nice if the docs were more comprehensive, but at least I can read the source code to see what's "actually" true

Pretty disappointing that the web didn't end up getting a standard way of adding context menus to a page.

Ahhhhh. Simulating network failures with precise timing is such a pain in the ass.

I need to simulate sending data, it being queued up in the TCP buffer and the connection dying before the buffer is flushed. In Node.js 😭 Pausing transform streams doesn't seem to do the trick. Might have better luck with a funky duplex.
