My handle is a Dune joke.
My toxic trait is that I call the Go mascot "that little blue marmot" while knowing full well that it is a gopher and I don't intend to stop.

Made some progress on logs in otel-desktop-viewer. Just super roughly prototyping the front end for now, but the back-end is doing its thing and ready for review!
I’m going to treat myself to a pastry, then move on to metrics.

Patch got accidentally shut in a closet yesterday, and I’m not sure he actually even noticed?
The thing about Patch is that while his handful of brain cells are acquainted in passing, they don’t really interact outside of the daily stand-up, ya know?

Bug (the kitten) will not let me fix the bug (derogatory) in my exporter config. He swipes at the keyboard if I stop petting. No debugging allowed, I guess.

We have acquired one (1) kitten.
His name is Bug. He is 4 months old, and I don’t think he has stopped purring unless it was to sleep.

There’s a time and a place for AI art, and that time is when I need a deeply unserious capybara doing non-capybara things and that place is in my pull requests, as a little treat.

The kids have reached the end of their dinosaur era (for now) and I was photographing these girls to put up for free on marketplace (dinosaur era gets hella expensive) but it looks like they are shooting an album cover.
🤷 Ship it.
