After turning down an interesting project like yesterday, I always find it kinda sinks me. I've feel no inspiration now for other projects and it's a bit gutting, really..

I've just turned down a contract for a lot of money, which is something I never thought I'd do. But there are more important things than money, and I'm proud I could realise this. #freelance #softwaredev

I find it so hard to justify the eveningly time investment that I feel would be required if I wanted to go to the gym properly. I wish I could figure out that balance sometimes.

It's great being able to look back on code from only a few months ago and see such an improvement in myself between then and now.
No matter how far you are in your coding journey, you'll never stop learning.

So far #2023 is great, really. I've been learning lots in my new developer job and I've been keeping my mental health in check with daily exercise!

Not bad.

#ZSH with autocomplete and syntax highlighting kinda slaps though ngl. Not sold on oh-my-zsh as it seems quite bloated, so I just installed the plugins manually and did a quick theme. But overall, I can't see me changing back to bash any time soon.

Okay day 3 of #RingFitAdventure and I'm still going strong! Really, really enjoying this game!!!

@sasunarubasee How did it go? Much faster?

Ring fit adventure slaps.

I set up a fresh install of Arch Linux today for the first time in a few years. Went pretty perfectly, much to my own surprise. The need to keep coming back to it never leaves me whenever I'm away from it for too long

Christmas trees are great until it turns out yours is infested with bugs and dozens fall out of the tree and on to the presents you wrapped nicely... #Christmas #ChristmasFail

Does anyone have a suggestion for the best way to implement a div that appears relative to the cursors position when the user hovers on an A tag? The div would just contain text and information.

My latest project is a custom built Pokemon website which gives easy access to stats, team building help, and information on the current meta. I'm very excited! #pokemon #webdev

I've decided to try and treat Twitter as a space where I can be a more authentic version of myself. Stripped of gender, stripped of prejudices from my peers, and a clean slate to connect with people I might be able to call friends one day. #lgbtq #trans #cleanslate

I created a pokemon API to allow easy access to pokemon data without needing api keys or sign ups. One day build done.

I bet sprints were conceptualised with excellent intentions... yet I've never attended one that was of any use besides wasting dev time.

I really enjoy writing #php code. I feel bad for people learning it these days with so many people calling PHP dead or dying when that's simply not true.

Over 500 eggs hatched to get my shiny Mareanie 😞...

Worth ever second.

Looking to sink my teeth into a bigger coding project in my spare time... Maybe a tool or resource for a game or something along those lines. Any suggestions? #softwaredev

[Jae 🏳️‍🌈 @_Benefaction]

#PokemonScarletandviolet is the first game I've been able to really get into shiny hunting. In spite of mixed reviews about the whole system I'm strongly for it!
