All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. – Leo Tolstoy
I always wanted to be happy my way, but maybe Leo is right.
Found on YouTube a good tune; I thought that song was a banger. I checked it out, and it had 50 views. Wait a minute; no way. I got a bit suspicious; somebody just reposted the song, and the official version has 500,000 views. For a moment, I thought I found a diamond in the roug…
OMG! Sony! How come X is accept and O is cancel?!
I asked ChatGPT to create a program that can generate automated podcasts, and it wrote it in Python. It worked for a while, but now I’m getting a bit irritated. Of course, the program wasn’t perfect from the first run, and ChatGPT handled the big changes well.
However, for sma…
Working with o1 preview is like working with an intern who knows all languages in the world, but has 0 experience in software engineering. I have to be very explicit with my intent.
It took a whole day trying to piece things together, essentially re-onboarding without the help from others; I was embarrassed to ask for help a second time. I probably should admit that I remember nothing, and I need help.
SVN checkout takes so much time; how come this old technology is still alive when Git is everywhere?
Some YOASOBI songs sound like K-Pop, for example ‘Biri-Biri’ 🤔
I have a hard time recalling relatively recent events, such as those from 2-3 months ago. I was onboarded to one of the projects and spent about 3 weeks playing around with it, and then I got sidetracked to another project. Now I’m trying to get back, but I have no memory of anyt…
It is fascinating how software development has changed with the current state of AI. I had an idea for an automated podcast, and after about four hours, it is completely functional.
I have an idea for a fully automated podcast. I’m trying to get into podcasting and realizing it requires a lot of work. I need to schedule time, then edit, which takes about 5 hours to edit a 1-hour podcast.
What if I write a program that generates a podcast based on my microb…
YouTube, can you remove the scroll feature on the full screen video? It is so annoying.
I have a bit of a surprise. I came up with a simple idea: make an LLM play a text-based game—classic Zork. For those unfamiliar, Zork is one of the earliest interactive fiction games, originally developed in the late 1970s. It’s a text-based adventure where the player inp…
Making commits where the number of deletions is higher than the number of insertions is satisfying.

Something’s wrong with the gaming if you need to wait 4 hours to download a game despite having a 1 Gbps internet connection.

My long COVID condition is not improving; in fact, it’s getting worse. I became too confident last week and pushed a bit harder with exercises and my game development hobbies. A huge wave of phantom tobacco smell is keeping me awake, and it’s bothering me too much. I can’t sleep.

Lost internet. Kind of unusual.

I was helping my son rip a CD, and we stumbled upon software called Nero Burning ROM. I used to use software with a similar name about 15 years ago, and it just occurred to me that the name comes from the Roman Emperor Nero, who allegedly burned Rome.
Days I did not think about …

Current internet is FUBAR; it’s time for a new internet.

I’ll pause on upgrading to iOS 18, as it looks like they have some battery issues.

I asked ChatGPT to make jokes about the Roman Empire:
- The only time I think about the Roman Empire is when I’m trying to remember if it came before or after dinosaurs.
- Thinking about the Roman Empire is like flossing: I know I should do it more often, but life just gets …

Wait, what? Analytics is a paid service on X now? I do not look at analytics often, and I feel it is wrong to charge for it.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I don’t think about the Roman Empire often—maybe once every two months.

Interesting observation, sometimes playing OSU! helps with my chest pain.

Why is it so hard to find prices for services? Why not put the price on the front page? I spent 15 minutes trying to find the membership price for Fitness 24 and eventually gave up. Do you think I’m going to get the membership? What is your business justification for not displa…
