Cozy winter night.

Wintery

All been said, here is this morning’s sunrise.

One of the reasons I regret immediately after opening X/Twitter. Pretty much everyone is just trying to sell something or spread something.

Oh dear, welcome to the club!

That's something that until this day I try to keep, especially when it comes to web applications.

Everything should be bootable just by going into the project and running make. Everything vendored in the repo, nothing external.

PHP really was something (is?). Just managed to boot up an old forum community I had in 2011 from some backups I found.

Running PhpBB and MySQL, it took me less than 30 minutes to get it up and running.

php 5.6, mysql 5.7, phpbb 3.0 in Docker.

No compilation step, no npm, no crazy dependencies.

Ahhh, then that’s even more awesome!

What are you doing now instead?

I was actually quite surprised to see how bad BA apps are, is just horrible, even for simple things like checkout.

Whenever I book for me and my wife I can only generate an apple wallet ticket just for me. That if the app works at all.

Indeed, I have yet to see a nice airline website. Funny enough I think the low cost carriers have the most decent ones. Wizzair/Ryanair. Probably because they realize a bad website causes a lot of friction.

We should ban algorithms choosing what we see and bring back the natural discovery, let good things bubble up on their actual merits.

Cannot wait for this to be abolished.

Who remembers when Macbooks had a ethernet port?

Almost Battlefield 6 time!

I’d definitely try it haha. Maybe even XP.

I am suddenly very afraid of power cuts again.

I don’t even remember when the last one was but still!

Linux gaming has been the best so far but it still hit or miss. I’ll retry again next year hah.

Would love to use Windows 7 again! Best version by far. (maybe XP came close)

Crazy to me that now we can have 128GB of RAM, 2-4TB on NVME storage, beefy CPUs for quite cheap and Windows still runs like shit.

I know I know, use Linux, but I am only using the machine for gaming. Plenty of linux in the household.

Cappy trying to not be cute, failed miserably. #dog

I wonder how much of the current AI workload are just vibe-coders torturing their agents with: "still not working, try harder or I am going to unplug you!".

The more I rely on GPTs to answer/write stuff for me the dumber I get, quite the damn slippery slope.

I felt the same when Github Copilot became a thing, I had to disable it as I was starting to forget the syntax. 😶‍🌫️

Also it takes a lot of fun out of programming.

I’ve been meaning to get rid of google maps for good, I guess this is a perfectly good time!

Holy fuck Google! Searching for the exact shop name just puts a sponsored result first (a competitor ofc)

I habitually clicked directions on the first result. Glad I re-checked as I was wondering why the score is 4.1.

OpenAI gonna gulp some emails

ChatGPT 5 is a nothingburger so far
