hi i'm leo 👋

i make computers do things that are (i hope) worth doing, for fun and profit. i like devtools, actors, fp, and types

i photograph people on the streets

i stream to help keep the burnout at bay, now making a game with my siiblings, or playing music

and i write about it

boy if i wasn't having an absolute dumpster fire of a year and my psyche rapidly collapsing in on itself, this github unwrapped would be unreal

Sam’s done it again! 👏

This piece made me (finally) clearly see the link between turing machines and assembly and if you only ~kind of~ get it, I think you should read it too ✨
What does it mean for something to be Turing complete?

I answer this question, and more, through a series of fully interactive Turing machine simulations! Play, pause, step forwards and backwards, and even write your own Turing machine programs in my latest blog post.

this is why i think the distinction between compiler and transpiler is meaningless

do people think processors run object code directly? (they do not; object code is further compiled to microcode on the fly under the hood)
programming is all about transforming a language into another

maybe accepting some friction is not such a bad way to stay present in the things i do

capture one file management is an absolute mess

capture one's catalog is a sqlite database... 👀

i'm getting *ideas*

capture one update: i had to nuke my catalog of 30k pictures because c1 crashed on startup -- trying again with... smaller catalogs? ugh

capture one is *fast* but it crashes a lot. its like the bun.sh of photography tooling

current mood:
1. locally archiving from adobe lightroom
2. into an icloud sync'd folder
3. and building a catalog in capture one

basically lightroom is unusable lately (tons of UX bugs, crazy laggy), and adobe doesn't offer plans >1tb (I'm at ~1.5tb of photos!)

jesus war of the rohirrim was hilarious

* the fuck is going on with the animation
* the dialogues are so cliche, this could’ve been a marvel movie
* zero character growth from basically anyone
* cheapest plot line on the history of storytelling
* unnecessary fan service

idk i laughed a bunch
