termux is a godsend! It has turned my unused Android phone into a server. Iβm going to run gemma:e4b on it.

Got new MacBook. No nix this time, just plain old homebrew
Thank you for saving me $20
pi is to coding agent as vim is to text editor.
This observation is so accurate π―
Tired of the OAuth drama from A & G. Trying OpenCode Zen now.
HeatSync v1 works, but itβs still pain to use β downloading 6+ heat sheet PDFs one at a time, entering the same swimmer name over and over.
HeatSync v2 fixes that. paste the meet URL, enter the name once, done. bonus: it gets faster the more people on your team use it πββοΈ

Been using OpenClaw for a few days. Had to switch back to vanilla Claude Code for work today.
Why does it feel like going from smartphone back to rotary phone? π
HeatSync is simply to use and works on your phone at the pool!
Know a swim parent? Share heatsync.now with them.

Heck! I'm a developer, make things easier is what I do! So I wrapped the idea into a simple web app:
πββοΈ HeatSync! heatsync.now
1. Upload heat sheet PDF (or paste URL)
2. Enter swimmer name
3. One-click export to calendar
4. Bookmark and/or share the events link
4/5
Every swim parent I know does this ritual:
- Print the heat sheet PDF
- Highlight your kid's events
- Forget to bring it to the pool
I showed my ChatGPT hack to other parents. They loved it but said "I can't do that AI stuff." π΅βπ«

So I uploaded the heat sheet PDF to ChatGPT and asked it to create calendar events.
It worked. Just For Meβ’ π

I built a web app in 4 days that turns swim meet heat sheets into calendar reminders π
I was at my kid's swim meet, trying to work between events, terrified I'd miss their race π°

I'm extremely happy! It's a perfect new year gift. I just hope (or pray) the team can focus on building great terminal, don't be another warp π
After warp became bloated, I went back to iterm 2. Today, out of curiosity, I tried ghostty and I was hooked instantly!
It's super fast and very snappy, as how a good terminal should be. More importantly, I'm surprised by its memory usage which is on par with and often less than iterm 2.
I've never thought I would jump back into backend development with JVM ecosystem, but kotlin is actually pretty `fun` to work with.
Needed to jump into kotlin/java codebase, I can't believe how BAD the language support is in vscode. Don't get me wrong, I love intellij and the its siblings, I just feel sorry for java/kotlin developers being locked in and lack of good alternatives available.
Arc is dead, Dia is BS, I'm back to the good old Chrome.
LOL
Oh, hold on. Svelte creator is also working for Vercel π©
The creator of Nuxt is joining Vercel. Next and Nuxt together? I'm not sure if it's a good idea. I just hope Vue won't be affected like React.
Maybe it is the time to pick Svelte up.
Milestone reached! I made to the parser chapter of Crafting Interpreters.
I donβt know whatβs wrong with me, I somehow have started Dark Souls a few days ago, Iβve been suffering since. I, however, canβt stop and donβt want to stop. The satisfaction of the achievement is way over the pain of hours and hoursβ failure.
A new journey will begin soon! I'll Seeq new challenges and learn new things along the way!
I feel unease seeing jobs hiring developers to write code to train AI. Itβs like a betrayal to our carbon-based species.
Well, need to update my resume and sharpen my interview skill now
Nix + direnv = π₯π₯π₯
Expo SDK 53 is out! Iβm going to bite the bullet now! πͺπͺπͺ
