while i'm pretty sure the theory that LLM's are going to supplant SAAS is pure AI fan fiction....
i've wasted so much of my life fighting utterly shit and overpriced garbage corporate software that part of me _kinda_ wishes it was true.
...not that fighting slop apps will be any better :\

vendor spyware code i've been directed to inject into every page is nuts ... makes redundant calls, pollutes the global name space, wonky arse looooong regex that trys to detect every possible bot UA.
if i try to cleanup any of it and wrap it in a function to at least contain it... i will be […]
It boggles my mind that some Audiobooks are actually region locked. Why? Don't they want my money? Did the author themselves decide they dont want to have their Audiobooks sold here because they had a bad holiday? Or the publisher? Frustrating.

I don't really like the Pirate Life beer prices at Gluttony #AdelaideFringe Or their beer for that matter . Might drink wine instead. Bring back coopers. The Garden of Unearthly Delights has coopers at a reasonable price #whinge

Wow, the keyboard of the 2024 Dell XPS16 is atrocious...
I have a tradie in my office, so I'm working in the garden. Away from my ErgoDox. It's the first time I really use the laptop's keyboard as it was clearly terrible in the first place, but...
Well, it _is_.
It doesn't help that the extra […]
the best websites are the ones with javascript that prevents you from clicking buttons when their shit analytics JS doesnt work.

Working on my rapid review paper again this afternoon. Feels so near and yet so far from being ready for submission this week. I love banging out articles, do not love editing, formatting, data tables, etc. #Whinge
“The Agony and
the Ecstasy…” oh please God
spare me the former

Today is a day when an abundance of #Patience would benefit me and I am struggling to maintain it. My normal Practices to reduce anxiety around particular issues are not working as well as I would like. (No advice requested, I just need to #whinge a bit so I don't scream aloud and pace. Thanks. 😁)

Not an auspicious start to the week: I've been awake more or less since 3:15 a.m., scrolling through Bluesky and listening to podcasts. Now that it's time to start my day, I could easily go back to sleep. It's going to take a great many cups of radioactive-strength tea to keep me functional. #whinge

catching up on the apple liquid vista thing... its meh (im old everything after system 7.1 and BeOS sucks).

javascript tooling legitimately insane
no normal human being would invent this kind of eco system and let it proliferate.
i dont mind js though... when im not spending the entire morning trying to get "nightwatch" to use "storybook" which apparently cant handle an import of an object i need to […]
so in jira, you cant add sub-tasks to a timeline unless you upgrade to "premium"...
