Meditating on a triad of habits of critical importance in this crazy world of tech-bros & bots & AI:

Act like a genuine human being.
Reach out to other genuine human beings.
Treat them with humanity.

I just want to put this out into the universe.

If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.
This is a very impressive PS1 game by @eliasdaler.bsky.social running on SuperStation.

Tried out the macOS 26 Journal app today, and wow, typing on it is rough. The lag is unbearable, like several words behind, and I’m not even a fast typist! The clunkiest Electron app feels smoother than this... 🫠

“We're all junior developers again. But not junior in the traditional sense, where senior is waiting after enough years pass. We're junior in a permanent sense, where the technology evolves faster than expertise can accumulate.”

Update: I got my hopes up too soon. While the fixed worked locally, it broke production and further attempts by the AI agent to fix it ended up down red herring rabbit holes and used up all my “premium request” credits for the month… in a single night. 🙃

I’m working on my digital garden this summer and thought it'd be fun to gather some inspiration. If you have any favorite personal websites, feel free to drop them here! And if you’d like, let me know what you enjoy about them.

“We enjoy the efficiencies and distractions technology brings, but they leave us less skilled at patience. They teach us to value efficiency above all and to be suspicious of idle time, when we should see idle moments as opportunities for reflection and renewal.”
