I write code and over-explain things.

My favorite useless feature is the "Voice Chat Chat" in Discord. I'm the only one who uses it and every time it confuses everyone else.

@warpdotdev "[Linux] Can now CTRL - CLICK to open a file"

@iconists If I didn't know any better, I would say this is creative rage bait.

@jrgarciadev Depends on the context, but right side has the most utility across needs. Left side is "the old way" and is painful to do "year you were born" in.

Neovim journey: Install Stable, progress, find out everyone is using Nightly. Install package manager -- Packer is unmaintained. Try Lazy -- find out Treesitter is broken immediately. Pause & flashback to Archlinux. Grit teeth & keep going. Coffee break. Curse @ThePrimeagen

@warpdotdev The Linux version is 🔥 -- can't wait for Windows. I REALLY appreciate that update workflow you guys include for apt installs.

My favorite thing right now is websites that impose password requirements... and then their login screen has DIFFERENT requirements. Like min 12 characters but the login screen has max 8 characters on the input. I'm looking at you @usbank -- smh

OpenSSL, why are you always looking to start a fight? Every time, I try to start a party, you show up drunk and start knocking over stuff.

@dmarklein I delved too greedily and too deep.

[Sterling Hamilton @SterLo]

"oooooo" as a progress indicator is insanity.

In the cave of problem-solving, he who declares a task 'easy' invokes the mischievous Sprite of Fuckery. Suddenly, a simple riddle morphs into a six-hour quest, with dragons of unresolved libraries and goblins of conflicting versions.

@davidwalshblog I think a lot of people convince themselves they are working to live. But then when they stop and try the living part, they don't know what to do. Being good at living is a skill that needs building. What would it take for you to be fully present when watching the sunrise?

.@SpotifyUSA My new favorite bug: Go to your Liked playlist, and sort by name - to remove duplicate songs - if you find some and unlike ONE of the duplicates it removes ALL OF THEM (the song is no longer on your list at all) - then you have to search for it and like it again. ☠️

Friendly reminder, if you are a website that prevents people from copying and pasting data (passwords/account information): You are solving the wrong problem and have instead become a new problem.

Ya'll have a "get shit done" movie you put on in the background?

@dmarklein Security and privacy are a lie, just let him happen. What's a little database between friends. ChatGPT is totally our friend. Totally.

[Sterling Hamilton @SterLo]

I want to be able to hook ChatGPT to a slack channel, where you submit bug reports, and it looks at the codebase, internal documentation, and database and goes "this is not a bug". I will settle for it just skipping all of that and saying "this is not a bug".
