Somehow these kinds of loaders inherently make me feel like whatever app they are in is really slow. I think it’s because the more sudden motion (vs smooth spinning) evokes a jerkiness and jankiness that says “slow” to me.

The amount of GitHub spam I’m seeing has sharply skyrocketed in just the past week. I can only assume this is from spammers using Claude or similar to automate scraping, collecting usernames, and spamming mentions.

I’m giving a talk next week at #SFRuby on March 24! If you’re in the area, stop by 🙂 luma.com/aewyiph8?tk=...

The merge queue makes it so I have to force push each PR in the stack again after a lower PR merges. Minor annoyance, but it does waste CI time. I think the bigger issue is our org policy to dismiss approvals when the base branch changes. Reviewers waste time reviewing up the stack.

Was very interested in @gitbutler.com stacked branches, but after trying it, it might not be for me. My team uses a merge queue, and we also have GH configured to dismiss approvals when the base branch changes. Together that means I have to force push and get a new approval for each PR 🤦😵‍💫

There are no days. There is only the Year. Hours are numbered sequentially. We remove the idea that sunrise and sunset are a cycle. They are just individual events occurring in a longer span of time.

I wish there was some way for me, long-time paying customer of both of these great services, to benefit more that they’re forming a closer relationship.

Discord moving to require facial scan for age verification is a big nope from me. It has honestly been enshittified so much that it is a bottom-tier app at this point. I guess, how do I set up Matrix?

I was very sad to see this post this morning. Heroku was how I deployed my first web app, how I learned about DBs and Redis and CDNs. I used to reference the Heroku docs all the time for best practices about deploying Rails apps. End of an era. 😢😭
