This is my yap account where I talk about the software details
I was sitting on this unfinished code for a while. It's really not exciting but every little change counts.

The old tagging UI was so obnoxious and tags didn't do anything yet except add a jumble of words on the page.

I can't lie, reading input and opening a window is hard to do from scratch for all platforms and devices. So, all the SDL "bloat" is actually kinda useful.

Finally fixed this OpenGL code. My bad! You see, when making a texture according to the docs, there are *extra* functions (NOT according to the docs) that must be called with very specific parameters!

I just spent hours writing OpenGL code (and then fixing it)... I could've finished a dozen other tasks by now. And this is the *simple* solution! Imagine if I used Vulkan or the SDL GPU library (which requires platform-specific shader bytecode).

Writing more and more tests. Tests tests tests it's never enough testing

Over 1.5 million profiles though! That's an interesting change in stats.

Back to 40,000 artists, or 74% of the last known record

It's actually literally gone lol. The backups failed.
Thankfully none of that lost data is very meaningful.

True! I need a simple reproducible case, and I need to make sure it's not the fault of Go or the 3rd part SQLite3 driver for Go... it's so exhausting :( Maybe tomorrow
