Made a "timeline" of the past ~6 years of me doing p2p web stuff and it's been nice to get a perspective on what the heck I've been doing all this time and to remind myself why I do what I do.

When I was a kid in the 90s I somehow learned that someone managed to get DOOM running on a head mounted display. Got infatuated with the idea for ages. Now it's just my life. 🤷

Teenage me would shit it's pants (from joy) at what I've become

Just imagine me in the dark with RGB lighting and this playing from my face. Occasionally swearing because some node dependency is broken deep in the tree.

Having to fuck around with the terminal to get my DPI setting right every time also adds to the aesthetic.

Programming peer to peer software on my head mounted display and my weird game console looking computer feels #cyberpunk as heck. The woosh of the lens distortion locking into my vision as I put the glasses on is just like in the movies.

Y'all ever get bloodlust for a salad? Like ripping into the throat of some tabouli?

Precog grief is a hell of a drug.

No use crying over unspilt milk

ChatGPT is like tarot cards for straight people

Looks like my FormData parsing got messed up at some point during an electron upgrade or something. 😅 Now all my file upload examples are messed up.

For real this lil thing I slapped together with @agregore has been saving me a bunch of searching while I code stuff. There's a lot of not great stuff coming from #ai tech, but local LLMs have been pretty convenient for small use cases.

"Mongo" DB, named after the giant Gingerbread Man from Shrek 2

My computer has been randomly shutting down while on battery power and low usage. I thought it was due to me messing with the GPU drivers but resetting them didn't help. It seems it happens less often if I'm not running VS Code which is extra strange.

Imagine somebody watching Shrek 5 without seeing the first 4.

What I really want is just `nano` but with the "go to start of word left/right" feature be "go to next word boundry left/right" and the copy/paste buffer to use my system clipboard. 😅 Sadly the code seems like too much effort for me to tinker with any time soon.

Editors like micro end up doing too much in that they take over the color scheme and have these elaborate extension systems.

Anyone know if there's an LSP (language server protocol) client out there that's just a standalone TUI? It'd be nice to explore types without needing to commit to an entire IDE + text editor.
