“you mean seasonal DISPLAY name??” not really

seasonal name

the correct suggestions for someone making a playlist of 00s tunes in 2023 is not all the songs that those artists have made but more recently

take a hint

i promise u i already know about P!nk that’s why i added her song

please just give me a setting to tell the robots that when i add a P!nk song to a playlist it is not me signalling that i want to add every P!nk song to this playlist

it’s not possible for an organization to go “ehhh, the aesthetics of this don’t sit right with me” and spend a weekend tinkering with it

organizations don’t have aesthetic sensibilities and individual personality doesn’t matter much to test suites

in my own practice, i want to employ programming models which enable those forms of expression

inverting the idea of “lone wolf” programming

a monolithic application programmed by a single organization where compatibility is enforced by the application/test suite breaking if someone pushes an incompatible change: that’s isolated

a dozen people all working on their own codebases and projects where the fruits of the ecosystem are only attainable if everyone agrees to the same sets of basic principles and interfaces, despite a lack of any real technological means of enforcing them: that’s social

open source in the sense of big collaborations can be good

but open source in the sense of a collection of small, individual takes on various problems is better, if you can just get the people to agree on a shared interface for communicating between those programs

planned on spending thanksgiving finishing up some technical debt work on this library so i can start building things with it instead

wound up taking a detour and refactoring several parts that i previously had considered completed

that’s ok

it’s saturday

come listen to some japanese jazz

if you live in a state where your institution still can claim copyright over your work even though you are doing it on your own time and on your own device and they aren’t paying you, i am sorry

happy “programming on your own device on your own time without your institution being able to claim copyright over your work because they aren’t paying you” day, to those who celebrate

they’re using this as evidence to debunk the conspiracy theory that jan 6th rioters were provoked by the f·b·i but uhhh it’s kind of concerning in its own right

« Most of the federal informants who have emerged from criminal cases related to Jan. 6 were not tasked by their handlers with spying on right-wing subjects — let alone with seeking to entrap Trump supporters into storming the Capitol. They were mostly far-right figures who were recruited by the F.B.I. to report on their adversaries in the far-left antifa movement. »
