I'm easing in on creating a presence here, so apologies for the lack of content. Please bear with me as I consider jumping / tripping over the fail whale. Learning something every day, and laughing early and often! Following my arrow.

I saw this yesterday, a Cruise #robotaxi crossed the double yellow to illegally pass a Muni bus. While driving on the wrong side of the street, the robotaxi forces a second Muni bus to brake to avoid a head-on collision.

Robotaxi companies will never deliver on their safety promises because faster trips means more profits.

It’s astonishing what they’re doing with AI these days, isn’t it?

No, sorry, not that AI — I meant “asshole intelligence”.

Writing code for what you're actually doing vs. writing code for what you want to be doing.

I should not have to compare 30k lines of logs just to figure out what your code does is all I'm saying.

@grrrr_shark oh, that's not what they mean by “self-documenting", eh?

@grrrr_shark Absolutely, yes!

Me, 24 hours ago, to daughter: "You know, we need a new small home server for X, Y, Z, so I was thinking over vacation we could..."

Me, just now, looking at brand new server constructed by kiddo all on her own with a little help from my funds: "Well... remember how I was saying 'over vacation'? Yeah ;)"

One Medical had pins at the front desk the other day. You could choose one to let the folks you interacted with know of your pronoun / gender identification.

That was cool and I wanted one as a souvenir. I didn’t ask. But I am happy if it causes some squirm.

ugh, projects:

  • Wheel of Fortune (2010, Wii): I need to get way smarter or rewrite Dolphin. Neither is likely to happen anytime soon
  • Barbie Fashion Show: I need to write a tool to inject textures, not just extract them. This should be easy if I don't change image sizes
  • Take No Prisoners: I'm not really sure where I am with this one/what's left. I can maybe dump opcodes of the scripting system with a bit more work?

@foone “One ring to rule them all" and still we have this stupid string encoding shit to fuss around with. Good times. (?)

I gotta watch a shooting go down here. And then it happens again in Louisville as it happens fucking everywhere at this point. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired. Humph. Proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free. What bullshit.
