I got mad at azure for moving from their old CDN and basically making me pay $20 a month for https so I moved to cloudflare pages. It was such a day and night experience. Cloudflare pages is so easy to set up. If you’re using Azure storage to host a static website, time to switch.

💥 did a small drawing explaining the JS execution model including the event loop. I hope it’s helpful to folks. Debugging is always easier when the underlying implementations are understood.

Honestly if you’re here, listen to corecursive, it’s great.

@adamgordonbell.bsky.social don’t sweat it taking time with your podcast episodes. Corecursive is a great podcast. Take some time for yourself and push that release date out. Hardcore history has a cadence which completely breaks the rules (months and months) and it’s still an unbeatable podcast.

Classic engagement hack. “Like my post I need to ~test my code works~”. I won’t be replying, that’s for sure.

For the longest time I shied away from low level programming. I always found it intimidating. It turns out it isn’t any harder than other programming. It’s just that everything written about it assumes too much. So here’s my attempt at an intro to machine code

Machine Code Isn't Scary

Machine code isn't scary. If you can make sure your JSON conforms to a JSON schema, you can write machine code.
