I have it too but don’t use it. What do u use it for?

• Moon and me
• Bluey
• Nils Holgerson
• Totoro

but the gaslighting stops now Am I the asshole?

Yes, yes you are

I can’t agree more with this. Wtf are they thinking.

SWEET

Not a spanish speaker but isn’t ‘nada’ also swim, as in a command to?

Thanks for answering. I don’t self host it but am interested. It’s still a company that i entrust to store highly sensitive data with, hence my interest in self hosting. Usually folks promote self hosting, so i was curious about your comment to not. Agree, that’s not something to consider lightly.

Why not self host?

If I’m the only one doing it then I’d prefer to stick with sqlite. But the reality is that everyone I work with does these kinds of things in excel, and it’s a shitshow. Yes, u could say ‘don’t blame the tool’, but it’s ms shoving it down our throats and they could’ve done much better with the time they had.

I get that. But it’s a case that’s just so incredibly common. Tagging/categorization. We end up with multiple columns like ‘cat 1’, ‘cat 2’, etc. Or doing pivot tables. I guess to me there’s pretty much always something that can do the job better, but the reality is that in the corporate setting I operate in everybody uses Excel.

Excel is such an incredible piece of shit. There’s many reasons to hate it for me, but what i hate the most is not being able to do relationships in any meaningful way. So often i need to have one to many relationships and this garbage makes it impossible. Data consistency? Nope. Opening a csv? Fuck you! Why the fuck are there online tools that are better at this shit? You had 40 years ffs. No amount of AI is going to fix this turd. God I hate Excel.

Dankjewel.

Yes, that’s exactly what I meant. When you arrive to someone’s birthday it’s common to go around, shake everyone’s hand and congratulate them (with Rita’s birthday). Or just do a wave when you enter and collectively congratulate everybody.

Congratulate everyone with someone else’s birthday. Netherlands.

For the first time ever I did some vibe coding this week. I needed what amounts to putting a file in a folder and watch until a file in another folder appears, with a monitoring utility.

I was very impressed with the definition phase. It was a back and forth about the spec until it was what I wanted. I then let it built.

This was quite interesting. It set up a scaffold, wrote tests and ran the tests, fixing errors as it went, then went on to finalize the app. Magic.

Finally it was done, so I go in to play with it. Riddled with bugs. Try to get it to fix them. More bugs. End to end spend a morning doing all this until I gave up and manually wrote what I need in about an hour.

Conclusion: Vibe coding is a complete waste of time. Worse: in the wrong hands it is dangerous. You need to be a pretty damn good programmer to assess the output, and if you are, why the fuck would you use it in this manner?

It reminds me a bit about the no-code/low-code evangelism of some years ago. To the novice it looks magical and a world of possibilities, and the road to riches. But in reality you can only use those things if you have decent programming skills, otherwise it’s a path nowhere.

Need a quick demo? Sure, this might help the novice. Want something for production? Get a professional.

Things that I really like about Zen:

• New tab URL input, it’s a dialog overlay
• Tabs opening as the first instead of the last in the sidebar
• the tab sidebar
• opening external links is magic, they open in an overlay with the option to expand in a tab. This is probably my favourite, because often I need to open a link from an email, do one thing, then go back to the email. This feature keeps me in the context of what I was doing.

Correct. I used to use the same key combo to switch virtual desktops on my Ubuntu install way back when and when on Windows my muscle memory would result in screen rotating all the time

I haven’t had it in a while, but I was obsessed with Lekker Bekkie Mango Chutney, from Surinam. Not exactly chilli sauce, as its more chunky, but so good. Very tasty, very spicy. I’ve been thinking about this for the past days, gonna get it tomorrow 😀

Lately we’ve been mostly making our own chili. We use chili de arbol seco. Nice because we can make it spicy to taste. I boil some water, put a couple tomatoes to take the skin off, add about 15 chili’s. Then transfer the chili’s and tomatoes to a food processor. Add a splash water, a small piece of onion, and a bit of salt, and process. Actually I put the onion after processing the tomatoes and chillies so the onion can be bit chunky. Its a simple recipe, but very good. Can add a clove of garlic optionally.

Last store bought we got were cholula and one from la morena, they’re not too bad, but I like it a bit spicier.

How much space does that take?
