This week, I put a fully-functioning Linux in a website, running entirely in client-side Javascript!

🐧 https://linuxpuzzles.blinry.org 🐧

It's a prototype for making web-based command line tutorials. Compared to a game or tool you have to download, I hope they will be much more accessible. ✨

Opera music would be so much better if singers didn't do the "opera voice".

That's a relic of the past, before amplifiers and microphones existed.

At this point, it's relegating the art form to a niche.

Business owner me sometimes just wants to grab programmer me by the neck and strangle him.

That's probably some kind of tribal instinct.

When you laugh, it's a group-bonding experience.

When someone else laughs, you feel like an intruder in someone else's group, which historically usually meant danger. Puts you on the edge.

Laughing hysterically is the best thing in the world when it happens to you, and the worst thing in the world when it happens to a stranger in the same room.

Cached regexes, you have back-stabbed me for the last time!!

(prob. not really though, micro-optimizations are too tempting...)

PSA:

If you work in a small team or alone, separating every change into an atomic commit is probably a waste of time.

Just list everything you did as bullet points.

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of good.

So you don't have to keep calling something a "hellsite", but keep coming back.

You can just leave.

Huh. 🤔

We would like to live in a world where arrogance is directly correlated with incompetence.

Sadly, I don't think we do.

There are supremely arrogant people who are actually good.

And there are humble people who should stay humble.

It is what it is.
