Xitter has quite the ring to it.

Hi friend, this was just meant to be an introduction, as I get started blogging and sharing back some knowledge and lessons I learned along the way. I’ve never written a blog before (or much of anything!), and I’m sorry you didn’t find value in this.

I wasn’t intending to boast, but I can see how it came across. I just meant to say, “companies are trying to tell you that you need ‘XYZ’ to scale,” and at least at the size of business I ran, you didn’t need any fancy tech at all – we could have made do with a dead-simple setup: a single server running Go and SQLite. It’s something I wish I had known when I started.

I’ll take your feedback to heart and try to produce larger, more substantial posts to follow. Thanks for commenting.

Is it too late for, “I use nix btw”? I use it at home and for development.

I planned to focus this blog series on ol’ faithful (Debian), but I could definitely see writing articles on how to use Nix and OpenBSD if people find it helpful.

To be fair, that includes a large popcorn.

100%. I also like to leave comments on bug fixes. Generally the more difficult the fix was to find, the longer the comment. On a couple gnarly ones we have multiple paragraphs of explanation for a single line of code.

What are we supposed to do in warm/temperate climates, like Southern CA?

Sounds like something a Scorpio would say…

No, you see, it’s fine now because he personally benefits from the hatred.

You’re telling me no -f’s were given?

Hey friend.

GW2 is a completely different game from the first one. No GvG, no RA, no more incredibly complex builds from combining two classes. I loved GW1 and really wished GW2 was “GW1, but you can jump now.”

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist. Steve Oedekerk is a genius.

Get a used Framework 13. It’s totally repairable and upgradeable over time with excellent build quality.

Since when is Deepfake Musk a bigger scammer than real Musk? The man’s been selling “full self-driving” upgrades to Teslas for years, and they’re no closer to “full self-driving” now than they were at the start. Surely real Musk has scammed far more people.
