All Blips

Tried out copilot today, hoo boy is it bad. Most of the code is absolutely unusable, it's more work getting it to work than to code it myself.

Spotify has gotten ridiculously bad. I'm now trying Apple Music again, I hoped they fixed the performance issues they used to suffer from.

🧙 Theme party today - witches and magicians

One of my girls turned 8 today. Time is passing so quickly.

🌧️ Rainy day in the area

I don't know, a quest line where the NPCs are super worried about being stuck in a mine because the lift broke doesn't catch me in a universe where Town Portals exist #diablo4

Even though people tend to look down on web development, I find it much harder to build a react app than to build a rust app. Browsers, and JavaScript, are full of footguns.

☑️ That's it. I'm going to build my own todo list. How hard can it be, anyways.

I used LLMs for a while, and I think their role in transforming our society can't be overstated. Here's my view on the topic: flenker.blog/the-new-digital-d…

🫣 Baby Reindeer on Netflix is deeply uncomfortable to watch.

😰 Still feeling over worked

TIL: Gemini recommends my rust tutorial as a learning resource. Not sure what to feel right now 😀

🌞 Sunny Day ahead

I have spent several weeks now asking ChatGPT instead of googling, falling back to google only rarely, and can tell you - google search as a product won't survive this. Microsoft's instinct to combine LLM with Bing is the right one.

This evening: Stay Forever live in Oberhausen!

Loved the ESC. Just the right amount of trash, and Germany on the upper half of the leaderboard. Perfection!

🇪🇺 All hyped for the ESC - first time with my girls 🥰

Finished a bike shed last weekend. It had between 300 and 400 screws I needed to use. So I guess I was screwing around all weekend.

😈 Started Diablo IV. The opening cinematics look awesome.

Chapter 3 of my 2024 revision to build your own text editor with #rustlang is now live: flenker.blog/hecto-chapter-3/

🏃♂️ Next attempt to test my knee and run again.
