In my previous blog post I described some behaviour of C# record types which was unexpected to me, though entirely correct according to the documentation. This is a follow-up post to that one, so if you haven’t read that one yet, please do so – I won’t go over all the same ground. Is this … Continue reading Records and the ‘with’ operator, redux →

I was hiking the Narrows trail along the Rockcastle river in Kentucky’s Daniel Boone National Forest, slipped off the edge of the trail and broke me ankle. There was no cell phone service so I ended up butt-crawling a ways on the trail (crutches I hacked together made things worse with weak wood out there) until I finally raised a faint signal. Texted 911 (so thankful they have this service for the deaf), helped their volunteer rescue squad..

Every 6 months or so, I decide to leave my cave and check out what the cool kids are doing with AI. Apparently the latest trend is to use fancy command line tools to write code using LLMs. This is a very nice change, since it suddenly makes AI compatible with my allergy to getting out of the terminal. Me, browsing HN from my cave (by Stable Diffusion) The most popular of these tools seems to be Claude Code. It promises to be able t....

The single Radix auricularia japonica snail in my tank decided to reproduce, most likely all on its own. I believe it must have arrived on my Cabomba as an egg (bought about 6 weeks ago), but it’s also possible it actually arrived as a micro-snail and mated with another micro-snail… Now having actually seen how … Continue reading Microscopic Radix auricularia japonica snails / モノアラガイの赤ちゃん

I’ve been using Claude Code for a while now, and one thing that always bugged me was not knowing when it finished running a long task. You ask Claude to refactor a large codebase or generate a bunch of tests, then you switch to another window to check Slack, Discord or get up to date on Hacker News. Twenty minutes later you realize you forgot to check if Claude finished! Anthropic recently released Claude Code hooks, and they offer a simple..

I talked with my daughter recently about an old babysitter, and then I pulled out my phone and searched for a picture using “Hadera, beach”. I could then show my daughter a picture of her and the babysitter at the beach from about a decade ago. I have been working in the realm of databases and search for literally decades now. The image I showed my daughter was taken while I was taking some time off from thinking about what ended up being ....

I’m in a bit of a summer lull with guitar. Bad : I’ve totally fallen off my discipline, and haven’t accomplished even one thing on my summer goals list Good : I’ve been having fun . Playing riffs with totally incoherent tones, and having a blast — Lemme tell you, there’s a punk cover of Cissy Strut waiting to happen I’m sure. I’m sure I’ll find my discipline again. But maybe I’ll go dig my loop pedal out until then.

I really hate the term prosperity — no one means the same thing when they say it, and a heck of a lot of people think it means “I’m gonna be a {million,billion,trillion}aire”. Maybe it’s time for a new definition of prosperity: The ability find friends, make friends, see friends. Time to enjoy the changing of the seasons. The time and money required to have a hobby, or three. Time with your kids; the resources to have kids if you wan....

How to load-balance like a seasoned waiter Software systems often parallel the real world. Imagine running a busy restaurant, where customers line up to make orders whilst the kitchen prepares the meals. In the software world, your users are the customers, and your backend services are the kitchen. With more people online than ever before, that line might start to grow out the front door. The ability to scale is no longer optional, it is es....

I‘ve gotten a lot done today, made a huge amount of progress on this React front end I've been developing. I am basically down to the last few features. And now I‘ve gotten this new backlog based workflow working really well with Gemini. I have all the features planned out in quite a lot of detail. It occurred to me earlier that why wouldn‘t I be able to turn on Gemini Agent mode , so it could run commands and query MCP servers etc, and se....

Compared to the first two books in Earthsea I was not as excited about The Farthest Shore . Some of the scenes felt — for lack of a better word — a bit trippy, which made the narrative a bit harder to follow. Although I do understand that Earthsea is marketed for a late-teen audience, I may be getting a bit tired of the coming-of-age tropes. “The Farthest Shore” still continues to fill out the world of Earthsea in an interesting an..

macOS apps typically benefit from built-in voice dictation input (included as a macOS freebie), with little to no additional work required from app developers. Emacs had supported this capability until relatively recently, when we began seeing reports that dictation was no longer available as of Emacs 30 . While I have no direct experience with macOS dictation-related APIs, I bisected Emacs 30 changes affecting macOS-related code (t....
