In a way I should be thankful to Big Tech for finally pushing my procrastinating butt over the edge, and getting rid of the remnants of "services" I don't really use, anyway.

Google is next after Discord. Time to de-google my life, not only my phone.

Glad I never bought into the Appstore much. The two Apps I bought ages ago (SunVox, G-Stomper) are irrelevant, really. Mailserver is self-hosted since the late 90s. YouTube? You mean Freetube or Peertube? Yeah.

Good riddance. Break someone else's spirits, I run on spite by now.

🇺🇦 1418 DAYS and 1418 km

Coincidentally, the distance from Donetsk Airport (where the frontline was on February 24th 2002, when the full scale invasion started), to the border post in Chop (the Westernmost town of Ukraine), is 1418 km.

Which means that if the russians advanced by one km every DAY, by now they would have occupied the whole of Ukraine.

Instead they only reached Pokrovsk, 60 Km from Donetsk Airport.

An example of what cutting off research funding to universities accomplished — many will die as a result. It's not hypothetical; they have names: "This 4-year-old's heart is failing. A federal grant that might help him was canceled."

Para esta palabra no pude pensar en ninguna otra, la verdad, siempre me gustó mucho la serie «Chip y Chop: Los guardianes rescatadores», y si Chip era el protagonista principal, Chop era más divertido😄

Top tip for working with Claude Code if you find that its auto-compactification is worse than a full frontal lobotomy (as I do).

I have created an alias for starting it that sets a 30-min timer. When it goes off, I usually check context and if necessary capture state, restart, and import captured state.

A lot of process, but way better than autocompactification for me.

Slightly (A few days) before the term “vibe coding”, Steve Yegge was using the term CHOP for chat-oriented programming. I think CHOP meant exactly what you are saying Vibe Coding perhaps doesn’t; or prescriptively wasn’t intended to.

Steve Yegge is at Sourcegraph, working on CODY these days, but has a storied history.
This video he did on CHOP is long but good.

They also reference this talk from Erik Meijer on CHOP

- a need for a new way of thinking about work, not frameworks

- the primary role played by the human element

- The value of lessons learned from leading-edge lightweight software & product development
