Hello fellow kids, I have made a meme

A DLSS 5 meme with the band Ghost as "DLSS 5 Off" and the band Sleep Token as "DLSS 5 On"

From the latest "Don't worry about the Vase". Something to remember.

A screenshot of a newsletter that says "ChatGPT is smarter than the average person but most things worth reading are produced by people significantly above average."

Unfortunate Play button placement on this one.

A screenshot of Apple's "Liquid Glass" YouTube embed, with several letters covered by the Play button, making the cover image say "liquid ass"

Sad but true (this is not a judgement on B5, which still slaps)

That's... a lot of hail.

Trying to use Prisma with Typescript has been one of the worst developer experiences I have had lately. Nothing about how the generated types work with relations aligns with expectations (why aren't the relation fields in the generated types?) or are documented clearly.

Ever since I switched to Android I've been searching for a decent Android RSS reader, especially one that can handle a self-hosted RSS aggregator. Let me save you a search: it's Capy Reader. You want Capy Reader.

From my notes as I struggle to get a Python environment running so I can experiment with building an AI agent:

A screenshot from Obsidian. The text reads as follows:

Python is a neat language with great libraries but the build/project/dependency ecosystem is completely broken and awful.

### Something maybe specific to AI/LLM but still this ecosystem sucks why is it so bad?

A bunch of the LLM tools seem to have dependencies built on Rust. The python ecosystem wants to build those dependencies locally when you install them into your venv. There is absolutely no warning about this, but this means, *by implication*, that you must have a *working Rust build system locally*. The error messages are really, really unhelpful here.

Here's how to do that:

* Go to the [Rust homepage](https://www.rust-lang.org/learn/get-started) and follow the install instructions

That's it, because Rust is a sane language with a build environment designed to make sense.

Whoever designed the Apple TV setup process should be forced to do the manual setup without an Apple device forever. Or, alternatively, to step on a lego every time you wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. I'm honestly not sure which one is worse.
