Finally got to the #EhI vibe coding hackathon. Gonna mess with my local web app generator.

@0xabad1dea I had some thoughts and they were too long for a Mastodon reply post

A NASA astronaut has captured an electrifying image of Earth from space, featuring a gigantic, jellyfish-shaped "sprite" of red lightning shooting upwards above a thunderstorm in North America. The rare phenomenon is still poorly understood, despite being studied for more than 30 years.

Food
Cilantro + cumin + garlic + tomato has got to be the most goated combo. Obsessed lately.
I've been playing the original cookie clicker lately and I keep getting this intense urge to automate it with a basic script that'd choose which items to spend cookies on next based on the current costs/payouts of all the buildings and upgrades. Sadly I have to actually get work done :P

Its not just some purity thing. It's much more about reducing cognitive load everywhere I can on the web. When I see underlined text (ideally some shade of blue) I know I can click that to show a different thing. All the behavior is something expected.
This goes for buttons & forms. Being clever and doing things differently than every other website just makes people have to think about what they're interacting with, even if only for a split second. That's not innovation, it's unnecessary friction.
Great article spelling out the disadvantages to heavy React based websites. https://infrequently.org/2025/06/conferences-clarity-and-smokescreens/
It's amazing how many ways English lets you politely express "Go fuck yourself".
Low key wanna make a streaming parser thingie in Rust where the gimmick is that I take slices for the tokens instead of allocating strings ir w/e. Nothing to use it for in the short term sadly 🤷

Anyone know of tools kind of like #languageServerProtocol but instead of keeping the AST in memory they do streaming parse / search on the fly? I'm not a huge fan of masssive memory use and it feels like we're leaving performance on the table by parsing entire files/folders instead of just enough to get to what you want.
Maybe instead of an AI I should just run all these MCP tools myself since they seem to clean up a lot of interfaces for you. 🤪
Kinda neat that we're in the "people getting cyberpsychosis from AI" part of the cyberpunk dystopia novel.
There's still a lot of things we can improve but I'm thankful to get to be Canadian.
Maybe once I get my glasses prescription updated and get some higher priority expenses sorted out :P
I don't need a new screen I don't need a new screen I don't need a new screen. Unless... 😈
