Currently slinging #python for fun and profit. Previously #typescript and #ruby (ehhh…). Leading teams, nurturing passion (hopefully?), mentoring, and being the best dang sh*t umbrella I can be.

The Reddit algorithm is leaping to some odd, but possibly valid conclusions about people using #Solaris in 2024:
Uh-oh, guess who has access to Visio again!

This day in #blaseball history: 3 years ago the Tacos blew out the Dalé 20-11. But because the Black Hole Rule went into effect at the end of last season, as long as Sun 2 is out (original Sun having been consumed by said Black Hole), every 10 runs gives you a win and resets your score to 0. So the Miami Dalé ultimately won the game, but both teams netted 2 wins.

I'm truly sad for everyone who didn't experience this at the time and I don't think it can ever adequately be described or recreated.

My spam looks like this now after like 1 week of looking for #homelab stuff. It looks like someone’s trying to sell me a Rockwell Turbo Retroencabulator.

I was explaining monoliths vs. services to one of my junior devs today.

This started as a visual example of junk-drawer failure mode of monoliths. Then I realized it was actually a modular monolith so it pulled double duty.

These people are not worried that their job is going to be taken over by #ai

Next person who asks me what career they should go into, I'm going to tell them "Renn Faire acrobat"

Glad to see The Shelled One is getting work on my dermatologist's patient check in system after the tragic shutdown of #blaseball
Whelp... I got #ChatGPT to make a "Tears in the Rain". A little on-the-nose at the end, but not bad.
TFW you uncritically accept #Copilot's suggestions and your tests are green so you're feeling great until you take a closer look at what's actually being tested...
