Yes all the stuff announced at Github Universe was cool, but the clear highlight was the Syntax podcast cotton candy machine.

My favorite thing right now is the r/marbles subreddit. I don’t know anything about marbles but it’s just guys posting pictures of marbles and then everyone in the comments section loses their mind like “Wow amazing score!! I’m so jealous!!!!”. I love it.

I made the mistake of using the musicians friend support chat box to ask about their return policy. After I ended the chat, my phone immediately rang with a sales call from them and I got a text 10 minutes later. This is super creepy and guarantees I will never use their chat box again.

pretty happy I was able to snag /luke

Finally tried out www.home-assistant.io and I’m hooked. Got a cheap used Intel NUC box to try it out and it works great.

Just a reminder to clean your screen and keyboard before going to that work offsite. You won’t notice how disgusting it is until you have three of your coworkers all staring at your screen.

Anyone know why Zuckerberg is in Fresno?

Planning on posting artsy fartsy stuff on this other account.

The most frustrating part of my day was trying to access the company provided Calm subscription. This is not a joke. 😐

I've been messing around with codeium.com/windsurf lately, and it's failed in just about every non-trivial task I've asked it to do. It will do a whole bunch of *stuff*, then just kind of fizzle out. Seems like the technology is close, but not here yet.

A bug in corepack ruined my day on Monday, bringing down systems when it absolutely shouldn't have. And, no we weren't doing something dumb like resolving dependencies at run time. Just throwing this out as a warning in case you're considering using it.

Our hearts are with everyone impacted by the devastating wildfires in Southern California. Our Trust & Safety team has created a centralized hub housing all verified fundraisers related to the LA fires, which we'll continue to update throughout the coming days as they come in gfme.co/3DNAIlh

11 days into using @deno.land for Advent of Code and I'm hooked. It's fast. There's no bundle/compile step. Debugging is easy. Node feels backwards to me now.

I've decided to use Deno for Advent of Code this year. So far I like it a lot. No compile/bundle step when writing TypeScript is awesome.

I wrote this a few months back, and it ended up generating a ton of traffic. How to find memory leaks in your node apps, presented as a murder mystery. #programming lukedeniston.com/memory-leak-...

I've come out of blogging retirement for a rant about ESLint and Prettier.

Said goodbye to an old friend today. Trying to reduce the number of expensive hobbies I have.
