    New laptop, so it&amp;#39;s time to update my list of apps I install on a clean #MacOS install: https://gist.github.com/adamghill/d107a729923dff1b6c0aa17c72d1c5ff. - Swapped Term2 for Ghostty - Add Tiny Player, SQLiteo - Unsure about DevUtils (there are a few other options here, but tbh I don&amp;#39;t love any of them -- I&amp;#39;ve thought about building my own for probably 3 years -- how hard can it be?! 🙈) - Also unsure about setting up `fish` again; `zsh` might be fine 🤷 Anything I&amp;#...

    My wife creates a lot of #stainedglass projects that are a little outside the norm. 👻 Here is one she made before #Halloween to pay homage to Stanley Kubrick&amp;#39;s classic #film, The Shining. Read more details about this piece at https://glass-o-lantern.com/the-shining/. Follow her at https://www.instagram.com/glass_o_lantern/ to see what she works on next. #cinemastodon #cinema #letterboxd #horror #art

    - Ever wonder which emojis you use most in Mastodon posts? - Which tags do you use most frequently? - Do you ever want to search your personal posts for something you said? These are a few of the fun new features coming to https://fediview.com soon. Message me or reply if you would be interested in being an alpha tester. 🤩 #wip #mastodon #fediverse #fediview

    The perennial question: do I start freaking out now or should I try to ignore it for just a little while longer

    Not sure what I expected from HN, but some of the comments in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47768750 🙈 I personally think there should be way more forks. That&amp;#39;s part of the deal with OSS! Forks are a way to go in a drastically different direction and that&amp;#39;s kinda neat to see. &amp;quot;I&amp;#39;m also not sure why that is better than what&amp;#39;s already out there” could be said about literally every single web framework at one point in time. Maybe the point is to ju...

    Maybe it’s a quirk with Antigravity (VS Code derivative) and Jedi? Or maybe it’s how I’m trying to use dataclass_transform? I’m still confused what is going on, but the pyright and ty extensions seem to show hovers how I would expect.

    RE: https://tldr.nettime.org/@tante/116074382014960841 Some of this resonates, but maybe code wizard is not the correct lens? For ~50 years, programmer meant “writes code”. But, maybe it should have meant &amp;quot;solves problems&amp;quot;. In other words: companies don&amp;#39;t pay programmers high salaries to write code, they pay them to solve business problems. Sometimes that means you don&amp;#39;t write any code at all and fix a process problem. Other times, code is the solution. The...

    I feel like there was a real loss of identity when an IC software engineer becomes a tech lead/EM. Instead of heads down writing code, it’s more about reviewing PRs, spec-ing out next steps, thinking high level about the architecture, etc. AI is looking like it will force that transition on huge swaths of software engineers at some point. Maybe not 100% and maybe not tomorrow, but it seems pretty likely to change the profession pretty dramatically. It’s gonna be a tricky inflection point.

    I couldn&amp;#39;t find a native #MacOS #SQLite browser that I really liked using, so... I made my own. 😅 Very heavily inspired by Postico, the (IMO) best #PostgreSQL client for #Mac: https://eggerapps.at/postico2/. SQLiteo is pure #Swift, as fast as possible, and intuitive to use. SQLiteo is still alpha quality and has some rough edges, but I&amp;#39;ve been using it every day and it&amp;#39;s been great. #MIT licensed and happy to take PRs to improve it. 📦 https://github.com/adamghill/sqlit...

    My wife is on a stained glass kick recently and this #Godzilla is amazing. I love the fire everywhere, atomic breath, and the textured glass for its body. #art #stainedglass #movies #artist #cinemastodon #Letterboxd #monsterdon #japan #cinema #horror
