Extremely fun to see "Wuthering Heights" with someone who expected a faithful adaptation

I know this isn't novel but I use Emacs and write Linux kernel code in C, please assume I am permanently behind all technological curves

Not really using LLMs to generate code yet but they're great at helping me name types and functions, which is actually an area where I get stuck. Like hey Claude I've got this struct that I use for this purpose, can you suggest a name for it that isn't seven words long?

blocked the NYT PR account here that argues with critics.

It's not even wrong on the merits much of the time, but there's something unwholesome and cowardly about the anonymous, non-attributable nature of it.

underrated: evening walk with spouse

Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."

Chuckling at a shitty Texas Republican going down in a primary, choosing not to learn even one (1) fact about the guy who beat him

If the Spurs win this one, they won't be the only Texans tonight to tip their hats to their opponents and compliment them for running an effective Cam Payne.

wow

or, you know... the war

Extremely glad there's a Spurs game I can focus on instead of election results

Wembanyama draining threes is so cool

cannot coax my work-issued Windows laptop into applying updates or staying suspended anymore. This thing is actively undermining my mental health

I took my kid to a dental appointment and another parent was sneaking hits on his vape in the waiting room

based on my experience in tech offices, all these guys should pay more attention to germ theory

Trying to do this on a GLP-1 would get grim pretty fast

dammit I just remembered I could have been using kexec

looking forward to the end of the IL-09 primary even more than the TX senate race

I am once again bisecting a bug in my device driver on a machine that takes 10 minutes to boot and become ssh-accessible

my uncle runs a place in Anchorage that serves fish and chips, and he named the half portion the "Texas size" which is just an incredible troll

Send Help was fun. I am not a Raimi-head or anything and I usually avoid horror but that was a good time.

It's unconstitutional for me to hear a leaf blower if I'm in bed
