Codex CLI: If you prefer X over Y, say the word and I’ll fix the ordering rule.

May be a bit too much trying to please me attitude. No thanks!

Just reviewed and merged a PR from terminal. It feels so refreshing compared to using Github UI.

This article from @arstechnica.com made me believe I can be software engineer even if I am not pursuing a CS degree.

What a different time 2013 was!
With zero coding experience, artist building 180 webpages in 180 days
“Learning by doing” is taken to the extreme by novice programmer.

Raycast is super nice.

This podcast is great listen. Remove the hype out of AI and keeps it real.

Some takeaways:

- AI hallucinating interruptions
- Programmer disengagement is a problem
- Anthropic instrumented Zed to see how they use editors.

I have 35GB of duckdb wal file. When I open duckdb cli, it's taking forever to open. Don't know how long it will take to open the file

Metabase is awesome. Really easy to setup dashboards!

Also extremely easy to deploy from Coolify!

Finally setup my Photo Library on a 2 TB SSD after procastrinating for several years. Now I need to organize 4 years of photos. At least I have decent workflow.

I love hackmd to write documents when I am on a video call. It's so smooth. It feels much faster compared to writing on Google Docs.

I have to breakup with prisma in side project and switch to drizzle. prisma generate causes the VM to hang randomly. I don't have will power to investigate why CPU usage goes to 100% suddenly.

Me: Dear GCP, can you increase request quota for t2d instances from 0 to 1?

GCP: Please contact through your account team or submit a request to sales team.

Unless you are an enterprise, GCP doesn't want you.

Great to see @planetscale.com launch a Postgres offering. The best place to store any critical data.

Probably the nth time I got nerd sniped into thinking about running CI in spot VMs. It’s too much work for non-existential gain and also adds a bus factor in the context of my workplace. 😮‍💨

I have side project which uses 200GB of bandwidth per month. I currently host this on AWS Lightsail. Images are probably 99% of this bandwidth used. I spent the day trying to optimize this at zero cost.

I spent 3 hours fighting with a bug that occured after we migrated to latest version of vite/plugin-react. Turns out it's a issue with our CSP not allowing react-refresh inline script to be injected into index.html.

Last night was quite eventful. First the GCP outage till 3AM then my kid started crying at 4AM. Thankfully my wife took over. I was semi conscious but I was completely exhausted.

Seems like GCP outage has recovered. Our app has returned to it's normal status. Alert Policies are recovering slowly.

Experienced a minor outage in production just as I reached the airport. That's a first.
