  During a meeting: Team Lead: So, Dan, what do you think of this approach? Will this work for us? Me: Yes, I was definitely listening to everything that was said and not scrolling through my social feed, so I fully understand what was being discussed and agree with the proposed plan. #NotEnoughCaffeine #ADHD #FirstClassBS #TooManyMeetings

  Trump is releasing more UFO files in hopes that we'll forget he still hasn't released all the Epstein files and that the ones he did release are still mostly heavily redacted, protecting his pedo buddies. #ImpeachTrump #LockHimUp

  I just watched the first episode of Filing for Love, and I have to say that I love Shin Hye-sun in every role I've ever seen her in. I'm so happy there's another new show with her. I wish I could forget See You in My 19th Life so I could watch it again for the first time. #KDrama

  Hey, Google you're already increasing the price of my YouTube Music subscription. So, I'm not going to be subscribing to YouTube TV as well.

  This morning, my son asked me if he could have French toast with Nutella on it. I told him the French toasts was already sweetened, so Nutella would be overkill. So, guess what I'm having for lunch? Go ahead, call me a hypocrite. I would say that, like Walt Whitman, I am large; I contain multitudes. #SongOfMyslef #mmmmm #Nutella

  Iran's propaganda folks have released a Lego rap video literally calling the President of the United States the Antichrist. And I'm not sure that's the strangest thing that's happened during the Trump regime. What a time to be alive. #DumpTrump #LockHimUp

  FYI. The "least you could do" is always nothing. Anything is always more than nothing. So, when you do the minimum that a decent human being would do, you're not doing the least you could do. You're doing the least that you should do. Or, you're just being the minimum of a decent human being. To be clear, that's not insignificant, because so many people are not decent human beings. So, kudos to that. #PSA

  I'm watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 5x15: By Inferno's Light, and it's crazy how much Dukat foreshadows Trump. He completely disregards everybody's lives for his own elevation, even going so far as letting his own daughter die, and then says, "You should see the monument they're erecting in my honor", paralleling all the gaudy nonsense Trump is doing, like putting his name on everything he can. He sells out his own people to...

  I searched on DuckDuckGo for "git diff include untracked files". The AI Search Assistant helpfully told me: To include untracked files in your git diff, you can use the command git diff --include-untracked. It linked to this article which talks about the --include-untracked option. Problem is, that option doesn't exist, and as far as I can tell, it never has. And I'm pretty sure that the linked article is AI-generated. The ouroboros is eating its tai...

  I've been using this account as my primary for about a week now, and I'm think I'm settled on using it for the foreseeable future, so I guess it's time to do another #introduction post. I'm a dad of four kids, and a web developer. I have a college degree in #Theater (or #Theatre) and had aspirations of being an actor. I kind of fell into web development as a career. It was a hobby back in high school, and I just needed to pay some bills after colleg...

  For #FollowFriday today, I recommend @forgejo@floss.social Forgejo is the community-driven fork of @gitea@social.gitea.io and now powers @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de :git: I just installed it today on my own computer. I had a few, very minor, hiccups*, but got it working pretty quickly, and intend to start using it as my private code forge. *: Turns out that its built-in SSH server doesn't start if you already have SSH running on your computer, but, you have to use their built-in...

  I'm starting to learn Go. At work we're splitting out some parts of our architecture into a few microservices, and our Chief Architect decided we should write them in Go, instead of our usual PHP. I've been enjoying learning it. It's been a long time since I've really tried to learn a completely new thing (as opposed to a new framework or whatever). As a project to get myself into this, I've been thinking about building my own Fediverse s...

  Another day, another job rejection. It's been almost three months since my layoff, and I keep getting close, and then losing out at the end. This time, I had an interview with the hiring manager, two live coding challenges, and then another interview with upper management. In the end, they told me I didn't have enough front-end experience for the position. They had another candidate with more front-end experience than me. They wanted to bring me on anyway as another back-en...

  I once wrote some PHP code that looked like this: // 🎶 I put my thang down, flip it, and reverse it return array_flip(array_intersect(array_flip($allTests), $chosenTestKeys)); A few months later, I came back to this code, and noticed my comment had been changed. // I put my thing down, flip it, and reverse it I looked at git blame to see who had mangled my comment. His git commit message was "Fix intermittent failing test", as if my comment somehow had something to do...
