Yesterday we brought Corn Dog home! He’s doing great so far, very sweet and affectionate. Slowly introducing him to the other cats, but they don’t seem to mind his presence. Hes a very curious, playful little guy!

This is corn dog, he’s coming home today

“Due to previous decisions made with the architecture, this change is going to take roughly X months and cost Y to do”

I’m one of those that does look at sites I really like just to see how it’s doing things. I have made a very conscious effort in my own apps not to leave any random console logs, but I think a nice “hello” message to those curious would go a long way

My kitties are doing the same thing, it’s adorable! And soon they’ll have a new brother to also snuggle with

I’m very tired of “productivity” culture. I’ve been in it for a a few years now and think it genuinely has done more harm than good

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Aug 6

I always forget I have to patch, make a small change, try to push, and then get mad when it doesn’t work

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Aug 6

I spent the past few days not working and it felt amazing. Definitely the reset I needed, and now I’m ready to come home and hit the ground running!

Idk who needs to hear the Expedition 33 soundtrack but just do it

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Aug 5

This looks great! I’ll give it a closer look, thanks!

Owning my i4 I’ve learned I’m far more of a tech guy than a car guy

I did a thing this morning

queuebase.com is now a legal entity in Illinois. This is the first company I’ve created myself for my own product. I’m nervous but incredibly excited for this next step!

Queuebase - Job scheduling for Next.js

Queuebase is a background job and queue management system for Next.js.

Why is pricing so hard to figure out?

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Jul 5

I almost have Queuebase v2 working in a production app. Planning on doing a formal release within the next few weeks here as I get some of the finer details out. Very excited that the core is almost complete!

@expedition33.bsky.social DLC idea: play through Expedition 0 and the first Gommage 🤔

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Jul 4

Queuebase version 2.0 is very close to launching. I will be running a few tests with it in a real project, and release an official build next week!

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Jul 1

Going for a test drive today I’m a Kia EV6. Excited to see what the hype with these is all about!

My app really needs payment integrations, but man ya know, now that I’m looking at these border radiuses…

Is it just me or does Copilot seem to be getting worse? I had a subscription to it through GitHub organizations and wasn’t a fan. Switched to Supermaven for a bit and loved it. I decided to give Copilot another try and feel like I fight it 90% of the time

AC went out this weekend and my house got up to 90 degrees. I felt like I was inside an air frier

Brock Herion @brockherion.bsky.social · Jun 23

That feeling when you’re trying to do something and it just isn’t working and you find a blog post you wrote about that very same thing cause younger you had the same problem

I have a bottle of champagne in my fridge for when trump… ya know
