Trying to measure coding productivity is, and always will be, a fool's errand.
Why? Because I can go for a walk then take a shower and have an idea, then write a single line of code that fixes everything I was working on.
Immense productivity, but by most metrics I didn't do anything at all.

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).

PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU.
Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.

So, a “free” cellular plan that you pay for by allowing the company to harvest your data… and that’s considered an “excellent” plan by this blog… 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️

So apparently my client has decided that we should (1) start using Cursor, and (2) show up at the office four days a week.
After more than 6 years there, I’m thinking this might be my cue to eject.

I’ve been streaming gamedev once on a while, so I did a python script that will trigger a receipt printer to show when someone follows me live. It’s kinda cool since it all happens automatically. I’ll be working and I’ll see it print suddenly.
