During my flights to Florida and back, I had a total of four legs. On three of the flights, I sat in the middle seat. One thing I noticed was that some of the passengers were constantly “accidentally” touching me. In some cases, I didn’t mind, in some cases, it felt actually good, and in some cases, I disliked it. The girl who was touching me was constantly apologizing for “accidentally” touching me. On another flight, the guy on the right was touching me, and the guy on the left was clearing his throat non-stop; I don’t know which was more annoying. In the middle of the flight, I found the solution for the guy on the left. I put on my headphones and started watching a movie. On my right side, do you know how it feels when a cold snail slithers down your lower back? Yeah… it felt like that. And on my last leg, the girl on the right was touching me, but I didn’t mind at all, and honestly, most of the time, I wasn’t even noticing it. The guy on the right was sitting really far; almost half of his body was in the corridor.

Reading some tweets and having some recent conversations made me think. I have good friends, so I mainly interact with my coworkers and my friends. In contrast, some people work as cashiers or nurses, so they have a lot of interactions with random people. I wonder if I’m living in a bubble of nice and politically correct people and if the world is actually full of racism and homophobia that I just don’t see because people don’t openly discuss it in public spaces and shops. And why I am worrying because it can be like a ticking time bomb, and people could become fed up and explode at some point.

I am working from home. As soon as I got out of the WFH bubble for vacation, I got COVID, a lesson for me that the pandemic is still going, and I need to order an N95.

“Fun” vacation, rapid test shows I am COVID positive. Going to lie in bed and rest.
I think I am getting sick. My throat hurts, and my nose is getting stuffy.
Quite a lot of bicyclists on the oceanside walk listen music. I realized doppler effect at this speed sounds awful.
Is it normal in South Florida people not smiling? Or I forgot to zip my jeans?
Is ChatGPT down? Who is going to write code for me while I am vacationing in Florida?
Internet is bad here. 0.7 Mb/s upload on my phone, WIFI is about the same. I guess I’ll have a proper vacation here and focus on myself instead of streaming.
Remind me when I get back from vacation what I put the universal receiver inside keyboard. I have a feeling I’ll totally forget about it.
If you need only to count the number of Unicode characters in your UTF-8 string and you do not want to pull a full-blown Unicode library, here is the C++ snippet: std::count_if(std::begin(v), std::end(v), [](auto c) { return (static_cast<unsigned char>(c) & 0b1100'0000) != 0b1000'0000; })
It was so windy at night, I barely slept.
Unbelievable it’s raining again
C++ gurus stop gatekeeping C++ and let everyone program in C++ whatever they want to.
I think I have been trolled. Some viewers were coming to my stream and telling me I have to use Doom Emacs instead of vanilla Emacs. Doom Emacs has vi keyboard shortcuts!
IMO the game should be as satisfying as eating peanuts: crack open, put in your mouth, chew, swallow, repeat.
Playing with ChatGPT, I feel like I’m learning how to be better in social situations. Sometimes it gets stuck in a loop and stops believing in itself, or gets into a passive-aggressive mode. I can analyze my prompts and figure out what I did wrong. And essentially, I feel like I can learn how to motivate and inspire real people.
If I do not understand it, it cannot be science. Based on this definition chemistry is not science. jk
I realized emacs backup files are just a noise. So I added the following line to my .emacs file:
(setq backup-directory-alist `(("." . "~/.emacs.d/backups")))
xmacro is useful tool to record and replay keyboard and mouse macro if you want to automate some boring tasks.

Not sure what happened in UE 5.1 update but, now we need explicitly package maps. Go to Edit/Project settings Project/Packaging add maps to the field List of maps to include to packaged build. https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/5-1-open-level-by-name-node-does-not-work-in-a-packaged-game-it-brings-back-to-the-same-level/694199
ChatGPT is very good at small tasks and helping to design big projects, but it is very bad at the middle ground.
You can make your Nav Mesh update at runtime in Unreal Engine. Go to Settings/Project settings menu, select Navigation Mesh section. Find Runtime Generation dropdown and select Dynamic.
You can pop out YouTube video to a just a frame without any clattering UI. It is useful if you want to have it like a fullscreen but on the the part of the screen. So the feature called Picture-in-Picture, and you right-click on the video 2 (TWO) times it will show you browser’s context menu and click on Picture-in-Picture option. Chrome.
Write a bash one-liner to extract a list of developers from a git repository for the last 3 months.
Here’s a bash one-liner that will extract a list of developers from a Git repository for the last 3 months:
git log --since='3 months ago' --pretty=format:'%an' | sort | uniq
Explanation:
git log: This command shows the commit history of the repository.--since='3 months ago': This option limits the log output to commits made in the last 3 months.--pretty=format:'%an': This option specifies the format for each log entry. The %an placeholder prints the name of the author of each commit.sort | uniq: These commands sort the list of authors and remove duplicates, respectively, to show only unique names.
ChatGPT of course.
