I call this poem "Fucking Rebase"
There's surely no quarrel
That life would be fun
If only Git and Torvalds
Were fired into the sun.

Seriously, it's the only piece of software I've used where "completed successfully" can mean anything from "I've done what you expected" to "I've absolutely fucked it", and I'm yet to find a consistent approach that favours the one over the other.
The country is a prized, fragile, antique teapot collection.
Starmer is Linda Barker: the supposedly qualified, but consistently underwhelming, selected overseer.
Streeting would be the Handy-Andy-assembled, ceiling-suspended shelving unit.
Playing "Mixtape" on Game Pass, and it's been really making me laugh. I really enjoyed "The Artful Escape" so have been looking forward to this for a while, and so far it isn't disappointing.
Jared White (ResistanceNet ✊)People have been sharing that "Programming Still Sucks" article, and while I appreciate that it's well written and funny and makes some good points, overall I don't care for it.
Because it perpetuates the myth that *software development only happens* within corporate capitalist settings. And it's simply not true, nor should it be true.
Programmers can come from all walks of life, and express themselves *joyfully* through the art of software in many local/small biz or non-capitalist settings.
I've been thinking about doing a presentation on my daft creative writing efforts (and the software I wrote to support me with it) for work's show and tell, but everything displayed recently has been so incredibly AI heavy that I feel I'm going to have to work that angle somehow.
Maybe something like: "Creative writing is like writing prompts, but lots of them, chained together. And then instead of handing them to an agent, you hand them to a human who will tell you whether they suck or not."
Happy "put a tick in a box next to some idiot, and hope they aren't secretly a nazi" day to all those celebrating it.
