I'd be terrified a 25 lb praying mantis. I bet it would eff you up at that weight.

Tariffs, CanCon, and You In 1972 the CBC asked listeners to complete the saying "As Canadian as...", to match "As American as apple pie." The winner was "As Canadia...

Did not expect someone to intersect CanCon, tariffs, global trade, and indie RPG/OSR products but here we are: coinsandscrolls.blogspot.com/2025/04/tari...

vim vs emacs has been replaced by copilot vs cursor unfortunately.

What have we become.

As a typed language fan... I find myself digging Elixir? Error chaining is hella painful but otherwise surprisingly decent? Messing around with GenServers and some Phoenix channel stuff for a backend.

I really should check out gleam.

Woah. This was a trip.

What the hell is Courier Prime.

It's been some time.

I'm here for the food.

Hope all is well in the ... uhh ... <<gestures broadly>> interesting times.

Spend months on and off on a side project just to realize you implemented 1/4 of a crappy Phoenix channel in Rust. Sigh.

I'm ok with the booing.

But I'd also expect Bourdain to call me out as my failings as a human first, not my food. And that's what would hurt the most.

Big shades of Tyler's Bullshit from The Menu

crested 40 and setup a home gym out of some kettlebells. I'm down 15 lbs and looking good!

I prefer top

sample size is now 2 !

Arm of a light brown to gold leather jacket with a banner INVENITE AUT FACITE, followed by large blue numbers 06. Two badges reading RITUAL and DRUNK WEEK are below.

My wife found my engineering jacket, or Golden Party Armour, buried in the basment. Still fits! This brings back the memories. Back when I could solve PDEs at the drop of a hat and the Hessian matrix didn't scare me. Almost twenty years ago. Crazy.

Also found SugarBee apples the other day.

Cara Cara orange season is the best season.

Nice! I did this last year. It was hard with a toddler though!

Summer is the most stressful season since I moved to the interior.

Not good. And the political will to do anything about it is missing. If we even end up electing a party the believes in climate change.

That's the voice I hear in my head when I read any of this stuff. I feel your pain.

Well, you see, the AI accelerates your data warehouse with seamless agents so you can make critical biz insights when they matter most, without worrying about the costly cloud providers harshing your vibe.

Emotion is such a great album.

random fact: she was my coworker's roommate back when I was a geological engineer in Vancouver. Way before she was famous. I've had a beer with her in her apartment !

2.1 km underground in a gold mine for me

Also 500m underground in a uranium mine going through an old area that was sealed off 30 years ago. In full scuba gear w/ own oxygen tanks because it was like being in a blizzard it was so dusty (radioactive dust).

If you are curious about Haskell or wanting to start using functional programming to build real applications, this is a great chance to save some money on Effective Haskell and other great functional programming books.

Glad to see you still involved.

Have had a pleasant week of Typelevel libraries solving my problems. KeyPool and otel4s this week!

Oh man. I'm sure you are devastated. That sucks.

Mine is 9 and they live forever right?

Sigh.

They are actually super easy to make.

Dark brown 5 cm fluted pastries on a light brown wood cutting board. Out of focus dog staring wistfully at them in the distance from a couch. A window outside shows snow.

Oncall weekends living in the mountains w/ spotty cell phone service means you stick close to home. Which means plenty of time for baking. French canele while going over logs and dashboards? Yes please.

I picked up a few kettle bells on sale last year and it has been game changing to have them around the house. Can't stand the gym, but will happily swing/lift a kettlebell while waiting for something to compile.

I live!

Still cooking (here is a 2 kg sourdough miche)

Still programming. Rust on my side projects (github.com/matfournier/...)

Day job has been a lot of scala + cats-effect + fs2 lately.
