I'm a programmer and an occasional supernumerary with the Canadian Opera Company.

I like tea and cookies. 🫖🍪

Just finished Alix E. Harrow's The Everlasting.

I've never read anything like it. It's absolutely beautiful.

only amateurs "pay for tokens," i'm out here using the free models, aka putting a prompt in any issue in any github repository and labeling it with "good first issue" and waiting for the people with full-auto openclaw agents to randomly open pull requests against it

Just got a cold sales email from a clanker as a service. I don't understand how this isn't just spam generation that costs more $ for many of these subscribers.

Several times a day my work laptop just decides to stop network traffic or some random app decides to hang.

This is a M3 Max MacBook Pro.

If I could put a clean image of macOS on it, it would be a BEAST. But as it is, it periodically is brought to its knee by the corporate management and spyware software.

the thing about being gen-x years old is that you grew up listening to your elders talk about how stuff used to be built so much better and so on

and maybe you rolled your eyes a little bit

But also the refrigerator in your first apartment was like 30 years old

Have Y'all seen these stories about the Scots drinking pubs and taverns dry in Boston? Bars are scrambling to try to find more beer for the fans in town for the World Cup. I have never seen anything like it.

One bar sold 5,000 beers in a single night. People had tried to warn them. There's no amount that would have been enough.
