At some point, we the people will need to hunt down billionaires so the human race can survive. Destroying Earth is not enough, so now they've decided to destroy things in the outer space.

Billionaires shouldn't exist.

The nazi sympathizer (walk with a nazi and you're also a nazi) Tobi Lutke (Shopify) think poor people shouldn't vote, and the weight of your vote should be bigger according to your level of income.

The Onion couldn't make this up.

Home automation is a universe on its own. So many vendors, every single one using the Tuya platform. Some device implementations are just terrible.

I had to create an API to abstract a bunch of shitty stuff, including exposing stuff to Alexa.

Fun project, but having to deal with this is just stupid.

Hall of Shame:

- PPA Connect: now I can require a PIN when opening the garage door
- Intelbras: you suck for not exposing WT7 properly, so I had to do some reverse engineering on the API calls. Need to be on local network, but got it working.

"How do we slow down? How do we walk when we're supposed to run?"

Performance reviews are stressful even if you do the work. I hate them.

This is insanity.

I'm happy for Belgium. USA is getting what they deserve after using politics to overturn the red card. Screw them. #worldcup2026

Assistir jogos na Cazé TV é uma experiência medíocre... meodeos, como os caras são chatos. Incrível não ter nenhum outro lugar. TSN+ é chato (os comentaristas são bem mornos, em inglês) mas não é irritante. Uma pena não funcionar na VPN.

Soy Paraguay desde pequeño! PORRA!

26 years as a developer, most of it as a web developer. Made a mistake that led to a XSS. Oh, well... 🫠

I've been using Apple's `container` and the socktainer API server lately and it works pretty well. It's interesting that Apple decided to tackle this problem.

I think I'm going to rip OrbStack off and create a SwiftUI client consuming socktainer's API.

The display of war machines in sport games is the most stupid thing. "Oh, we have choppers, look at them…" 🙄

The amount of phishing I receive targeting SendGrid is mind blowing. 😩

Watching AUS x TUR

I fuckin' hate Cloudflare's request captcha... just went through it 4 times in a row while accessing a website.

I'm at the end of "Reporting Grain Production to the Central Committee" phase (AI becomes KPIs).

This article is pure gold. Read it. Then read it again.

I didn't know OrbStack was a native app. Both Docker Desktop and Podman Desktop are Electron apps 🤮 (I was using the latter). Bye Podman, hello OrbStack!

Your children can introduce you to some nice music if you're open to it (and car rides become a way to share interests with them, talking about concerts, bands they may like, etc).

Djo's last album is very nice (I've listened to the previous one but found it to be too electronic for my taste). Saw him at Lolapalooza and the show was quite nice!

They also got me into Wallows, which I like a lot. And they made me rediscover The Strokes (I never actually listened to their albums, just the main hits).

go to sleep to music…
wake up to music…
still poor.
