was getting ~20 writes/s on a local #dynamodb instance even after spending an hour parallelising and batching my writes, and checking my disk speeds. turns out dynamo runs an SQLite backend locally by default, which is _really_ slow. back to ~1000 wps after using the in-memory backend.

checked out Copilot "for free" on VSCode because i needed to do some sloppy data manipulation. it silently installed the Copilot extension and kept throwing notifications in every window to get access from my business admin with no sign on how to get rid of it.

Hideaki Anno does whatever he wants to do and it's marvelous. the Second Coming of Jesus sure would look cool as a planet-devouring robot, so that's what it shall be. shot composition and artstyle switch frequently, especially the live action shot. surreal's what it is, and dare i say, postmodern.

do not let anyone convince you that the purpose of work is to maximise story points delivered per sprint.
in reality, it is to let out ambiguously erotic yearning sighs while reading RFCs that would solve your exact problem if anyone in your org bothered to read them.
