Hey friends! I'm on the lookout for a new (remote) role, preferably with a large-ish org, hopefully still working on something that actually helps people, ideally Ruby/Rails or PHP. Feel free to pass it on!

Just confused Dunning-Kruger with Voight-Kampff, so now I'm even less sure if a coworker is a robot.

Domain registrars are the real estate agents of the Internet - they're all shit, but it's hard to avoid using them to get yourself a place.

Me: "How do we do this thing?"
Them: "We open a console in production, and we paste in this code, and th--"
Me, pressing my finger to their lips: "Not anymore, we don't."

Fellow nerdburgers! Do you know about git's includeIf config option? It lets you import a separate config file that overrides your default settings!

https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#_includes

I'm using it so I have my normal personal email and signature for my own stuff, but it switches to work's for work. How good is that? You can see mine here:

TFW you realise you're older than Voyager 1, but haven't gone anywhere near as far in life.

Careful the wish you make [...]
Wishes come true, not free.

Careful the spell you cast [...]
Sometimes the spell may last past what you can see and turn against you.

Careful the tale you tell: that is the spell.
Children will listen.

As we separate stuff to move with us and stuff for a van full of donations today I’m embarrassed to admit we are the absolute champions of buying too much shit we don’t need.

    @lzg I remember people in SF telling me Australian web devs were in demand because our internet connections were so, so garbage we had to learn to work around it.

    Switched hosting back from Azure to a tiny DO droplet, where pushes build usesthis in GitHub Actions and straight up rsync it. Everything old is new again.

    The main drive of this was to get my (static!) JSON API for the site working again, which is fun: https://usesthis.com/api/

    You can get at all the interviews and their categories, and do neat things like see a breakdown of the most mentioned hardware (https://usesthis.com/api/stats/hardware) and software (https://usesthis.com/api/stats/software) - you can even break that down further by year; compare: https://usesthis.com/api/stats/software/2009 vs. https://usesthis.com/api/stats/software/2023, for instance.

    This is all a very normal thing to build for a static site.

    The worst part about having kids is how they start to bring their friends over to hang out, and for a few hours you have to pretend you're not some sort of disgusting filth wizard.
