Damn! I guess it's a very human design choice to not have a notification though. Like forgetting to eat a meal and then hours later being like "why am I so grumpy".
You have to feel the hunger, and you have to feel the drag of a slow computer. Promotes a sense of oneness with the machine?

Or to put it another way, I can just clear out the top 1% of my Downloads folder and it will deal with 80% of the problem...
Power laws really don't incentivise me to organise my files well...

and the intuition, unsurprisingly, is that it follows a massive power law.

original program I was writing was to try and understand which files are taking up the most space here.
`du -d 1 -a | sort -rn | awk '{print $1}'`
then copy into google sheets to get the intuition

Me: grumbling that my slow laptop that is clearly the result of planned obselence, bloatware and electron apps.

Single = 'Shield' everything.
Double = 'Dynamic' substitution.
No quotes = 'Naked', so be careful!
seems correct enough to be useful?
so in the awk example, it was failing because $1 was getting interpreted at the *shell* level, not the *awk* level.

Anyway! Was fun to cosplay as a @itseieio.bsky.social project for a bit. Will definitely do more websocket things in the future, maybe this time even on an actual server? Idk sounds extreme

Anyway I only launched the web toy like an hour before the fiesta. It was a brief flash in the pan! But I guess probably a few 10s of thousands of toppings got added. We made it 240 metres!

What was this all in aid of? A poll told me that most people I know have never had a filet o fish. I've also never had a filet o fish. I thought why not try and hold a London meet up for the First Time Filet o Fish Fiesta!
And so why not make a web toy to advertise it?

And also I was out in London bridge getting... A fish filet. So to bring it down gracefully and avoid (maybe) getting hacked and all my data exfiltrated, I ended up nuking the Cloudflare tunnel to kill it. Seemed to work? Now that's what I call DevOps.

I was trying to get it running as quickly as I could, and as such it was all hosted over a Cloudflare tunnel on my laptop on essentially a development server. All the warning signs of "never ship development servers in production" started bouncing round my head.

Got to about 3/4 of the way up the height of the shard and then the usernames like "fish; drop TABLE" started freaking me out and I bailed
