Marketing in dev docs is super annoying. I was just combing through the docs for a gem, and 50% of each page was “oh it does this” and “wouldn’t it be great if you could do this? now your can!” I like a bit of that on the “Getting Started” page so I clearly know what the library is promising but after that just tell me how to use it!

The Guardian is running an op-ed: “Trump shrugged off Khashoggi’s killing. This is a new low”; but is it really? I’m so tired of all the “firsts” with Trump, does anyone have the capacity to still be shocked or surprised at anything this man does?

My daughter is going to a birthday party today, somehow this means making and writing the card falls on me.

Last night I watched: White Noise 🍿 I didn’t see a trailer, I didn’t read the book. It’s so much more fun to go in blind. I had no idea what it was or where it was going. Thoroughly enjoyed this film.

I’ve been switching between Ghostty and iTerm a lot, mostly to take advantage of iTerm’s scroll back search but today it seemed appropriate to use Ghostty!

Dear Tidal… Fix this! This is not the first time/artist I have seen random albums for; I can generally parse the noise if I know the artist well or they haven’t dropped an album in years but I shouldn’t have to!

I’m ending my Neovim experiment, it’s still fun to hop in for trivial stuff but switching back to Sublime has released such a cognitive load from my mind that helps me to focus on business problems and not “wait which buffer was that in?”

Happened to wake up ten minutes before the Nobel Peace Prize announcement. Predictions: Donald Trump will not win, the United States will declare war on Norway.
