Software developer and total nerd that enjoys building diverse projects with various tools I probably don’t fully grasp. Sometimes I squash bugs, but mostly I just create them.
 I also enjoy gaming, raspberry pi projects, and am an avid mechanical keyboard enthusiast.

Following #VintageComputing might be the greatest/worst decision I’ve ever made. Suddenly I’d like all my ultrawide flatscreens to be 12” CRT’s with green typewriter effect text like something from the OG Alien movie.

If all you enthusiastic instance builders are anything like me at project start - you overbuy domains as a fail safe. So here’s me wishing you health and safety this time next year when the renewals start hitting the accounts…

like oh yeah *insert unhappy person’s name here* - I may have forgot to mention I purchased 73 domains last year and they’ve come due again thereby overdrawing the holiday funds.

There comes a day when you’ll swipe up on the “Birth Year” form field so hard that you’ll think you shot it to Neptune…and it still won’t be far enough down the years. The state of reflection and despair this causes hits different.

The cool thing about programming is that at some point the errors, failures, and never ending problems that need to be solved move from being frustrating and soul crushing - to being lovely little mysteries and thought pizzas that are begging to be solved and devoured! You just have to get there!

So my question is.

OMG WHEN DO WE GET THERE???

Growing up on movies like Event Horizon and games like Doom 3 and Dead Space - I could not be more excited for Callisto Protocol!

There’s a sense of both pride and doom when I refactor a project that reduces the code bloat by a significant amount. Pride because I’m so smart and just made the whole project more efficient and idiomatic. Doom because clearly when I spent 6 hours writing all that bloat just a day ago - I was so super dumb.

This is Blueberry - she can code in #Golang, #Javascript and #Drool. Her favourite IDE/editor is anything by Petbrains. Her favourite theme is Solarized Bulldog. Doesn’t believe in tests if dinner time +/- 6hrs from time.Now().

So the #Jetbrains #Golang #Goland IDE 2022.2.4 is definitely not playing nice MacOS Ventura. The below pic is occurring in various stages of garbled red mess EVERY TIME my #Mac is woken from sleep. It’s worth noting I’m using a KVM setup and am using the stage manager feature in Ventura.

My MacBook when not connected to the KVM does not appear to suffer the same effect and it’s worth noting my setup hasn’t changed from what I was using on Monterey where this issue did not occur. Anyone else?
