As a parent, why are all the parental control tools so terrible? I'm tempted to do that thing where I join a company, fix the parental controls thing, then leave for the next company. </rant>

I really appreciate your post @apiguy.dev. Thank you for posting your thoughts. I wish you had the info I had to make your decision.

Finally got around to beating and then 100%ing Zelda Echoes of Wisdom. Loved it! I've always been a bigger fan of that style of Zelda game, and it did not disappoint.

In Super Mario Bros., the first vertical lift platform in World 6-3 does not have a fixed range like it may seem at first. Instead, it slowly keeps increasing its range, so that keeping Mario on the platform will eventually result in his death.

<minirant>Go has to be one of the most frustrating languages, especially coming from Ruby and it's "developer happiness".
func Copy[M1 ~map[K]V, M2 ~map[K]V, K comparable, V any](dst M1, src M2)
WHY? 😭
(Hint: dst, src is the order they choose)

This is really cool. I love the labeling concept on BlueSky and would love my favorite game devs to get labeled. Check out @ozone.birb.house to see the labels and/or get labeled.

So sad to hear this news. I always enjoyed his posts on Ruby.
Just found out a good friend and mentor, Noah Gibbs, has passed away. Rest in peace friend, the Ruby community is poorer in your absence.

@joneslloyd.bsky.social built a chrome extension that allows you to use bluesky replies as the comments section for *any URL*
with an open network, bluesky can be the comments section of the entire internet

I am loving all of these clever ways to use the BlueSky firehose.
prototyped a little thing that watches the bluesky firehose and pulls out all the unique bandcamp links, creates a page with low-res static art that you can click to pull in the live player embed
I have the album/track tags in the model but haven't figured out how were to put them in the ui yet
