🐄🔧 Oh joy, yet another open-source Claude Cowork tool nobody asked for, now with extra #governance for those who crave bureaucratic oversight in their coding lives. Because nothing says "innovation" like adding human approval gates and audit trails to slow down your already glacially-paced development process. 🙄💻

I Created My First AI-assisted Pull Request and I Feel Like a Fraud

I used AI to contribute to an open source project. The code was merged. I didn’t learn anything and I felt bad as an engineer.

We made dev humor merch.

"It Works On My Machine" stickers. "404 Brain Not Found" t-shirts. "Trained On StackOverflow" mugs.

16 designs for developers who cope through humor (so... all of us).

Stickers from ~. Zero inventory, zero guilt.

The best debugger isn't an IDE. It's walking away for 5 mins, then seeing the error clearly. Your brain's cache refresh is powerful.

Cleaning the Slate: The Radical Engineering Behind Python 3.0 - The Story of Python Series - 1

Python 3 deliberately shattered backward compatibility to fix years of design debt. Here's what changed, why it hurt, and why it was totally worth it.

🎉🎩 Welcome to the 32-minute saga of "How to Pretend You're a Genius by Confusing #Rust and Everyone Else." Spoiler: it involves emulating HKTs, crashing #compilers, and invoking Curry-Howard theories just to sound smart. 🚀💥 Pro tip: when your argument starts resembling a mathematical fever dream, it’s time to reevaluate your life choices. 🤦‍♂️

Torturing rustc by Emulating HKTs, Causing an Inductive Cycle and Borking the Compiler — ramblings of @harudagondi

I just wanted higher kinded types. I borked the compiler instead.

🚀 Another sleepless night, but it was worth it. My new-designed Spotify mini-player is now released to the Chrome and Edge web stores! The Firefox version still needs a little love, but I can't wait for everyone to try it out. #BuildInPublic 🎧🔥

👴✨ In the grand return to Rails by 2026, a time traveler from 2010 revisits their ancient Ruby temples, armed with the cutting-edge wisdom of a #DevOps architect who moonlights as a bassist in West Sussex. 🤘🎸 Between purring cats and loud noises, this mighty coder-musician hybrid crafts a blog that's as relevant as an Amiga is in the 21st century. 📟🦄

Returning To Rails in 2026

I love a good side-project. Like most geeks, I have a tendency to go down rabbit holes when faced with problems - give me a minor inconvenience and I’ll happily spend weeks building something far more elaborate than the situation warrants. There’s joy in having a playground to explore ideas and “what ifs”; Building things just for the sheer hell of it, as Richard Feynman put it “The Pleasure of Finding Things Out”.

You just accidentally did a hard reset and lost your morning's work. You open the git reflog to get it back, but all the commit messages just say "Fixing stuff."

How do you find the right commit? 🤔

1. Guess the hash and pray 🙏
2. Check them out one by one 🕵️‍♂️
3. Use SmartGit's Visual Reflog ✨
4. Cry and rewrite the code 😭
