I think my philosophy when making software is that it should work for people with zero money or no bank account / credit card.

I know it's not a popular mindset to be in since money and profit is everything in the tech world.

I think it comes from growing up as a kid with no disposable income or access to anything but my shitty computer.

I'd rather support people with almost nothing than people with latest and greatest tech gizmos and spare cash for subscription services. 😅

I'm gonna use this yhread as a way to keep track of links to read and like my own posts when I get around to them.

Would it be weird if I forked this lisp firmware for my t-deck and added some mesh network stuff? 👉👈🥺

Instead of "is it decentralized" I'm more interested in "can it work off-grid".

It's not enough to circumvent internet censorship by making new tunnels to the internet. We should be building on foundations that don't have these single points of failure in the first place.

New moon tonight. Review how the past month has gone and how you want the new one to happen.

I used Seedance 2.0 to make this entirely new scene for the movie "Cars." Movies are so cooked. Movies are so done. People will stop watching movies and instead watch my prompts.

Baking is Alchemy. Soup is Witchcraft. Frying is Chaos Magic

My smart ring says I gotike 10 hours of sleep last night. Much needed given I only got like six the two nights before

Reflect Orbital wants to destroy the night sky to deliver "sunlight as a service". SpaceX wants to destroy Low Earth Orbit to launch one million "AI datacentres"

The only way to formally protest these two ideas is to file a comment with the US FCC, which is horribly complicated, but the American Astronomical Society has detailed instructions posted here: aas.org/posts/advocacy/2026/02

Comments due March 6 for SpaceX and March 9 for Reflect Orbital. Write! Write! Write!

Thinkin of traversing the graph of all possible states of a permutation. 🤤

Finally beat this raid boss in Borderlands 3 after 4 nights of dying constantly on mayem level 10. Painful but somehow we did it with two people

One of the interns decided to interview devs across my org about how/whether they use AI for development and what they think about it. They shared without names but with titles.

I noticed that the more senior a dev is, the more they’re likely to have low opinion of AI and/or only use it for very narrow purposes. More junior devs tend to say things like “it makes me a better dev”

So thankful for unit tests being a thing that programmers make 😭 Doing a +-1k LoC PR and they thankfully caught some blunders

TIL there's a thing we're calling, "pathological demand avoidance" that is probably a better description of what was being called, "oppositional defiant disorder" lol I'm also OK with just calling us anti-authoritarian FWIW

If I remove the lid to their tank they could try to run up the side and over the edge, but then I would see them. They don't do this. They either wait on the lid, flattened into a crack motionless until it's removed (then they make a break for it)

Or they get on the brush and stay motionless (not running up it) until I put it down.

And a new gambit? playing dead so I sweep them out with the graveyard. (!)

They keep getting smarter.

Dogs are glitchy enough I bet there would be some good techniques in there, dog circle around scent 47 times to write bone to registry and this lets us take over at another dogs state in a previous run where the pendulum swings were positioned for a gapless traversal

Quadrobics on the dog obstacle course must go hard

There should be speedrunning but for those dog obstacle courses.

Yeah we're a "watches dog shows instead of the olympics" sort of household :P
