I've also gotten a bunch of these, as well as a ton of spam phone calls, and texts from randos wanting to sell a house I lived at ages ago. I think some data breach opened up the flood gates.

On our steps to the basement there's a landing and on that we set up one of those cubicle shelves to act like a mini pantry with fabric bins with _clear_ front panels. On top of that we store the potatoes and onions. Since we pass by it rather frequently it doesn't get totally lost.

If anyone has contacts at Microsoft or Google in the parental controls space, I'd love to talk to them, before I pull my hair out 😅

As a parent, why are all the parental control tools so terrible? I'm tempted to do that thing where I join a company, fix the parental controls thing, then leave for the next company. </rant>

I really appreciate your post @apiguy.dev. Thank you for posting your thoughts. I wish you had the info I had to make your decision.

Here's the core issue:

Before Sept 9, when a trusted maintainer broke our shared contract and added an RC non-maintainer, you had no ability to enact your vote.

Finally got around to beating and then 100%ing Zelda Echoes of Wisdom. Loved it! I've always been a bigger fan of that style of Zelda game, and it did not disappoint.

In Super Mario Bros., the first vertical lift platform in World 6-3 does not have a fixed range like it may seem at first. Instead, it slowly keeps increasing its range, so that keeping Mario on the platform will eventually result in his death.

<minirant>Go has to be one of the most frustrating languages, especially coming from Ruby and it's "developer happiness".

func Copy[M1 ~map[K]V, M2 ~map[K]V, K comparable, V any](dst M1, src M2)

WHY? 😭

(Hint: dst, src is the order they choose)

Tiny JITs for a Faster FFI Can we have a faster FFI for CRuby? Yes.

I wrote a blog post about how we can make FFI faster in CRuby railsatscale.com/2025-02-12-t...

Also the performance difference is negligible when only calling it once in a while.

This is awesome. Part of the reason we use ffi is because we target different architectures, and so we don't need to recompile a c extension shim for each one. Also, the binding is delayed, so on arches that are unsupported, we can load the ffi code and just not call it.

This is really cool. I love the labeling concept on BlueSky and would love my favorite game devs to get labeled. Check out @ozone.birb.house to see the labels and/or get labeled.

Bar charts of employee tenure, salary, and age from the DOGE website. The y axis is unlabeled, and horizontal lines providing some sense of scale are unevenly spaced

not sure what's worse about the DOGE site: unsecured databases, leaking of classified information, or these chart crimes

It's always proportional to the size of the project and the relative usage of the project. Small, frequently used, libraries are much more likely to be bug free.

So You Want To Remove The GVL? I want to write a post about Pitchfork, explaining where it comes from, why it is like it is, and how I see its future. But before I can get to that, I think I need to share my mental model on a few t...

I wrote down my personal thoughts on whether it's worth removing Ruby's GVL and what it would take.

I wanted to talk about Ractors too, but this is already too long, so that's for another time.
