- Hungryyy!
- *yawn* Get up first, then.
- Don't want to!
- Preparing breakfast makes you know that you'll soon get food. That gets you dopamine. Don't you want dopamine?
- You're using science for evil!
I feel that my methods are not always appreciated.
Like walking to a room and forgetting why, but between a debugger shell and code editor. Is there anything worse?
"Ah hmm so x equals y but should be offset by z, let's just see the code that frobnicates it and check --"
*blip*
What? CHECK WHAT? HELLO BRAIN?? Goto 1, sigh.
Vikkelä valokuva oli ihan lol
Olipahan taas objektiivisesti kiva #instanssi Jyväskylässä, demopartyistä lempparini. Johtuu varmaan lämpöisestä avoimesta hupsusta rennosta tunnelmasta. Partykoodaaminen vaan väsyttää. Seuraavaa tekelettä voisi kehittää 51 viikkoa yhden sijaan.
One thing I can never change about Claude Code is how it rings in my head like "clot code", as in blood clot that can cause a stroke. But sometimes Claude or any LLM in general messes up as if it just had a stroke so maybe that's quite accurate.
An old laptop with bluetooth is "temporarily" collecting my weather sensors. Signal strength improvement from spotty to consistent: add a piece of foil near the integrated BT adapter antenna. Now procrastination on a better external one can continue.
Hello, world. Data older than this one imported from my Twitter/X profile, or conveniently anything older than 2026.
Best part of this festive holiday season: cool myofibril iridescence on just sliced ham and forgetting that you're hungry for five minutes
Best time of the year, #adventofcode. Debugging off-by-ones back and forth like poor Trurl with his machine and it's already bedtime. Poke around inside the machine, disconnecting, correcting, checking, resetting. And yet, two and two = seven, so to speak.
Favorite hack to highlight specific patterns in shell output: stuff | grep --color=auto -C99999 pattern
Now that EU is about done with that common charger stuff, they should focus on banning soft touch materials that turn into sticky slime in just a few years. Any shiny cheapo plastic is superior to that initially velvety rubber surface that is essentially planned obsolescence. 💩
Dead HW stages of grief:
- Not booting anymore? Did this power cord go bad?
- Sigh, let's try cmos reset
- Not that backup PSU, such a hassle
- Woo backup boots, RIP old PSU
- Argh zip ties
- Cable mgmt is fun, I feel young again
- Ahh last screws, such a good time
- Ow my back
My favorite command line trick has been and will always be: grep . /stuff/*/* to replace cat /stuff/*/* for small files (often in kernel filesystems) when you also wish to see the file names. Alternatively, grep "" /stuff/*/*
Still energized from #altparty. Hope it happens next year too, maybe could finish a demo once. Only started to relearn 8086 asm for this odd "portable" Amstrad I dusted off and brought (). The teletext thing was fun, I traced a book cover into that format.
Voitaisiinko yhteiskuntana lopettaa painonastojen käyttö kun kiinnitellään ilmoituksia puisiin katuvalopylväisiin. Veikkaan nimittäin, että tämänpäiväinen renkaanpuhkaisija on sellaisesta peräisin eikä varta vasten Lauttasaaren nastamuumion tuoma.
Plottasin huvikseni hsl #kaupunkipyörät massan wappupäivänä ulliksella kun muistin jonain aiempana vuonna naureskelleeni asemien ylikuormitusta. Melko laillahan noita tuonne menee lähialueilta, mutta koko kapasiteetti on kuitenkin tuhansia konkeleita.
"silloin kun koodataan vauhdilla niin silmät on vaan tiellä" #instanssi spiikit parasta viihdettä.
"when you're coding fast, eyes are just in the way"
I toasted some bread with a laser engraver! Eväs tarjoillaan tarkasti paahdettuna - laserkaiverrettua paahtoleipää @ #instanssi

kalibrointi, säätö, yritys, erehdys ja lopulta aika valmis tulos!
Been watching some old Star Trek lately.
Data sounds always so familiar, like I've just heard that voice before in some absurd dream.
Today it hit me. The How it's actually made series. Not far from absurd dream. Brent Spiner, is that not you?
Nerd at a party: I wish I was at home installing gentoo
Computer graphics nerd on a toilet: Wow this toilet paper roll SVBRDF is amazing, almost like chatoyancy in fine wood. I wish I was at home raytracing this stuff.
Sparkly snow on a sunny day always
a) warm, calming, delightful, beautiful
b) stressing, glitchy, like there's something slightly wrong in this raytracer, maybe probability distributions incorrect or somehow just sampling the lights too often, must debug immediately
Spend days on a neglected Gentoo system to resolve package conflicts, wait for those 1588 to build with 9 GB source to download, fix several build errors, polish things after by cleaning old use flag special cases. And now what? Go outside?
Had to go through most stages of grief, but chewing gum on a toothpick saved my bike repair evening. Usually chewing gum is just a metaphor for a hack; not today.
Saddle been dying for years, now the front fell off. Almost declared it's time to get a new one for this disaster of a bike, but invested an old rolled up sock and some duct tape. Perfect for at least another year. Also great theft protection: any other bike looks more desirable.
Feminiini: naispuolinen sanasuku
Maskuliini: jonkun huonekaluliikkeen hellittelynimi??
Toissapäivänä vietettiin Kalevalan päivää. Siitä tuli mieleen, että softakehityksen ilot ja ahdingot vois sopia jonkunlaiseen runomittaan. Laitan tuonne talteen sitä mukaa kun mieleen tulee
Ambient occlusion is almost like structural coloration on a macroscopic level
Love these #adventofcode twists. With animals in volcanic tunnels participants to graph traversal, code sanity gets THIS close to the classic "True, False, FileNotFound"
Taidan käyttää puuha-sanaa just sopivasti, kun aina kun jossain näkee mainittavan puuhakkeen käytöstä vaikka kun levitetään kulkuväylälle puuhaketta, niin aattelen, että se on jotain ainetta jonkin yleisen puuhaamisen mahdollistamiseen. Vähän kuin viihdyke. Vaikkapa litra legoja.
There's the font. The airport has apparently been really future proof with these spaceship symbols. Also, we held the screens upside down first, this makes sense now
Oh yesss. Then 720 modules like this to wire back together. Few pixels, big screen. Specs of the original: about 9x3.5 m, 2400 kg
