the fencing visualization system i worked on with rhizomatiks
is coming to los angeles this weekend 🤗

I switched all the labels on my wife's spice rack.

I'm not in trouble yet, but the thyme is cumin.

Earthquakeeeee in Reno, NV!

Me, joking: I can’t believe we chose “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally”

Conservatives, dead serious: it was a tough choice, but I’m glad we picked “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally”

100 hours of PTO start now. Taking the family to Argentina, to hang out with _the family_.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

Mine is in just a few weeks! :]

I printed it and stuck self-adhesive copper tape to it. There's copper tape with conductive adhesive so you can add multiple overlapping pieces and it counts as one conductive surface. Then I used the second part of the mold to shape the copper, so that it sticks inside the recessed traces. Then I used sandpaper to file away at the raised ridges. The copper traces are now electrically independent of each other. Done! But if I want, I can remove the extra copper tape.

The companion mold at the bottom. This second 3D-printed part pushes the copper tape down into the recessed trace channels so it conforms to the shape. The two parts sandwich together with alignment spikes to keep everything registered.

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

When you’re doom posting about how everything is inevitable and no one can stop them, you’re doing their work for them. Stop that

Installing Claude Code. I finally have an idea to try to implement.

4 Panel Comic Panel 1: Blue guy holding a champagne glass saying: Pffft. You can’t say Merry Christmas anymore because of the woke police. Merry Christmas! Panel 2: Two police officers in rainbow coloured uniforms smash through windows either side of the blue guy. Officer 1: WPD! Officer 2: Put your hands on your ass Panel 3: The woke police begin beating the blue guy Officer 1: Merry this motherfucker Officer 2: I got you christmas right here shithead Panel 4: Blue guy standing in the exact same position as in Panel 1. The beating that just took place was a complete fantasy. Blue guy: God I wish that would happen

A massive problem today is the uneven distribution of shame. Some of us are running dedicated on-site shame servers 24/7 while others have no access to shame at all, even though they desperately need it. What we need to do is put shame in the cloud

this shit is just beyond parody, man

Conference was good! Learned a lot, got lots of ideas, tools, and tricks to share with my coworkers.
Agentic AI! Big data pipelines! Developer Experience! Platform Engineering!!

Heading into AWScon aka re:Invent tomorrow. I'm looking forward to an overwhelming amount of information and marketing theater.

I have entered the lottery for Western States 100. Only 1 ticket = less than 1% chance of me getting in. That's ok :)

ladies and gentlemen...we got him

So... I did it. I ran my 100 mile ultramarathon.
3 days later, I'm still processing all the different little moments, and also the bigger picture. My body is recovering nicely, and most of the discomfort is minimal by now.

Here's some pretty sweet footage of my adventure.

7 days until my first 100 mile ultramarathon.
The preparations have begun! Checklists, map flyovers, forecast comparisons, food options along the route there, and lots more to come.

A screenshot of an email from Linus Torvalds, dated August 25, 1991, with the subject line "What would you like to see most in minix?". The body of the email describes the start of his project, a "free operating system," and asks for feedback. He mentions that the OS will not be "big and professional like gnu" and that it's "just a hobby."

Happy 34th birthday to the Linux kernel!

On this day, August 25th, we celebrate 34 years since Linus Torvalds announced his new toy project. What started as a small, personal project has grown into the powerful Linux kernel, the heart of countless devices worldwide.
