ai slop graphics
Yeah IDK what I'm doing. I think I might do some actual procgen for the art with my own code instead of the slop. GDScript is fun though!
Trying to slop some horrifically bad sprites so I can shit out a game in godot.

The wonderful world of technology: I can't read my (physical) mail, because Cloudflare is down and the mailroom uses electronic access control.

thinking about how maybe shoveling our entire world through one chokepoint that also MITMs our TLS was a bad idea
Deleted more apps off my phone yesterday and put tighter restrictions on the existing ones. Wish I could kill samsung's crapware too, but oh well.

@2legged no. Apps are a cancer. https://blog.codinghorror.com/app-pocalypse-now
Am I bad for feeling a bit giddy about all the massive centralized services being down and causing disruption? This is exactly why we should cure tech people of their cloud fixation. It's easy until it all dies. https://downdetector.com/

I'm going to pretend it's the full moon keeping me restless instead of the ectra energy drink I took to get through work today 😎👉👉
Unfortunate that digital "screaming into the void" is less cathartic and exhausting than doing so in meatspace.
I use the rotisserie chicken method of sleeping where I can never get comfortable. I should attach a lil dynamo so I can charge my phone or something off this. I'd be the machines favorite battery if I was in The Matrix.

If I were a cave dwelller I'd be hunting in the night while the creatures are off guard. Probs only on clear nights.

New rule:
For every 10 developers you hire, you have to hire 1 developer whose sole job is to remove code. Every single PR they create must be net-negative in terms of lines of code.
Sorry I don't make the rules, all must comply.
Buhhhh I love bespoke decentralized databases and the tradeoffs in creating themmmmm 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
My fave tech term has got to be "footgun" for describing tools or approaches that are equivalent to "shooting yourself in the foot"

Advertising should be banned.
Advertising is an industry whose goal is to manipulate people at a massive scale into spending money on or believing things.
Advertising pollutes our physical and digital landscape visually and serves as an inconvenience.
Food
Hungy but if I eat this late I might get heartburn. Present me will suffer so we can avoid a near future me who will suffer harder. 😵 Morning me better get its snack on ASAP
