Listening to a podcast with my wife. She listens at regular speed (not a native English speaker, I get it). For me, it is hilarious though. Everything sounds so different.

The amount of `Nothing -> pure Nothing` I see is so sad.

One thing I really dislike about LLMs is that reviewing PRs of engineers has less value. Showing them convenient ways to do things in the language doesn't stick because all of the code is just generated, lightly self-reviewed, and yeeted into the universe.

New Elder, Devin Townsend, and Dimmu Borgir!

#erlang what is the current broadly used UUID library?

Super pumped right now. First full night of fencing since my injury last May! I also fenced super good. Too much tension in my hand but we take it.

For me, a CPAP machine 😂

Confirmed, I’ve been living life on absolute hard mode. Actual sleep does feel restorative.

It’s the little things that bring me joy

Assemble Swedish furniture. Listen to Norwegian black metal. Seems wrong. Feels right.

Tons of repetition required still but I really liked this discovery part.

Haven’t shared a drum video in a bit. This one is cool because you can see where I find the exercise and then really feel it.

I _love _ it when I realize the correct database schema for my work project at 3 am. The over/under on me going back to sleep: 1 hour 🙃

Made some progress towards @musicmonday.app here on BlueSky. Need to set up a few actors to post a new thread each week and another to monitor threads for responses. Shouldn't be too much work if I can find motivation.

At the moment, just time. My main focus outside of work is drumming! I’ll be back to it eventually.

I really would like to spend more time with Racket. It’s a fun language.

What’s your favorite programming language and why?

I was working on the BEAM book for a bit. Learning about the run time is pretty interesting.

I’ve had zero interest in projects outside of work. I think this is a good thing ultimately but I miss #gleamlang and #erlang

What's My JND? Find your Just Noticeable Difference in colour perception. How small a colour difference can you actually see?

Can you beat it? www.keithcirkel.co.uk/whats-my-jnd... fun. Some felt impossible.

I’d ban them if I could. It honestly feels like I need to start a lobbying group.

The season of horribly loud lawn equipment has begun. I absolutely hate leaf blowers.

I need to get back to OSS Tuesday nights. It’s an opportunity to work with Erlang. I can just listen to music and code.

Just found out I have medium severity sleep apnea. I wonder how long I’ve been living life on hard mode.

Found an opportunity to contribute to Yesod. Pretty cool!

Jim Chapin Drum Lesson: THE MOELLER TECHNIQUE - PART I YouTube video by DRUMMERWORLD by Bernhard Castiglioni

If you have no idea what this means but are remotely curious youtu.be/fBYN08ugw6c

Currently working on whip + up on both hands, it’s super hard.

Started doing the full Moeller strokes today (whip, tap, up). The efficiency is crazy. I can’t wait to learn how to do with both hands playing 16th notes at any tempo.

Was able to recognize wrist tension in my drums practice today. Progress!
