Golang Dev

debugging life, one commit at a time | just another burnt-out dev with wifi

I don’t write code anymore.
I write prompts
that write prompts
for other prompts 😅

Peak engineering.

Started a small Unity 2D game with my kids 🎮
One does design.
The other handles logic.
I mostly try not to ruin it 😅

Looks like I’m just the project manager now.

Finally added reCaptcha to my contact form.
If you’re a bot, sorry — we had a good run 🤖💔

My current office setup:
– Desk in the living room ✅
– Kids running around ✅
– Random “Can you help me with…?” requests ✅

Who needs distractions blockers when you’ve got a family? 😂

I asked my wife if I could buy a new laptop.
She said: “No.”

So I installed a new terminal.

Ghostty.

It’s called coping and it’s perfectly healthy.

Day 4832 of remote dev life:

✅ No separate room
✅ No door
✅ Kids running around
✅ Wife needs help every 15 min
🧠 Brain context lost
💡 Solution? Turn the old storage/kitchen into an office.
☔️ Rain stopped me today. But soon… soon I shall have THE ZONE.

Hacker: “We’ve hacked your site and exfiltrated your DB.”
Me: checks site
Site: A single HTML file with a form that sends messages… to me.
So yes, technically, you hacked… a textbox 😅

Fixed a dead 5V PSU by replacing some tiny hot bois and wizard resistors.
Shocked it back to life.
Electric necromancy is real.

Tried to Dockerize Asterisk 20.
Spent 2 days fixing configs, switching to PJSIP…
It ran beautifully!

At 99% CPU usage.

So I went full caveman: compiled it from source.

Now it just works. Like in 2008.

Things I did this week:
• Gave my kid’s Minecraft server a domain
• Fixed Starlink with PoE after the router died
• Printed 3D action figures
• Remembered 6 things I forgot to do

I’m basically a dad-shaped DevOps team

Replaced a dusty Core2Quad with a modded Xeon X5460.
Minecraft server runs smooth. My son calls me “TechnoDad”.

Was about to post the IP and brag, but…
Got stuck picking a domain name.

And now it’s been a week. Silence. 😅

1 day before vacation:
– Wrap up 5 features
– Fix that one “quick” bug
– Write docs
– Handover notes
– Say goodbye to team
– Mentally prepare for inbox explosion

Easy 🫠

“It’s just a small bug.”
3 hours later: I’m mapping the entire codebase with colored yarn on the wall.

Sometimes being a developer means staring at your code like it’s written by someone you deeply offended in a past life.

I don’t know where I’m going.
But I’m probably late for it.

Me: functioning-ish

Did a little work.
Hit the gym (kind of).
Saved the world? Not quite.
But I showed up.

[Golang Dev @GolangDevelop]

Built two drones. Cleaned my car.
Did I code? No.
Did I feel useful? Absolutely.
#weekendwins #devoffline #IRLproductivity

[Golang Dev @GolangDevelop]

No coding today.
Just drones, cables, kids, and a reminder that life doesn’t run on Git.

[Golang Dev @GolangDevelop]

Did I solve all tasks today? No.
But I hacked a filament dryer and felt like a wizard.
That counts.
