Watching a video that’s supposed to be about Next.js (hey don’t judge my moments of resume-driven-development) and baffled by the absolute contortions the presenter is going through to justify their use of Tailwind.
“I’d have to come up with a clever class name and go and edit the style in a whole separate file”
okay second I see your editor supports tabs “second file” WTF and first of all NO YOU DON’T IT IS THE TITLE OF THE PAGE JUST USE <h1> AND CALL IT A DAY

Out walking the dogs. Somebody stopped their car to let me know they saw a coyote run towards the path we were just about to turn onto.
That’s downright neighborly.

“server components [in Next.js] are a major innovation”
Pausing the video before I reach through the screen (and time) to assault the presenter with a server-side include

It’s taken me two hours and one dog walk to make it almost ten minutes into a 45 minute video.
I think I’m gonna need to change my meds if I want to work with folks whose entire world is React-based.

Explaining the idea of #neurospicy to my mom — who in the last 40 years has gone from “ADHD’s just an excuse for doctors to overprescribe” to “I’m finding the ADHD is becoming more intense as I age” which must’ve been a hell of a journey for her.
She immediately took to the idea, and we riffed a bit.

Weather alert on the phone
“Severe Thunderstorm Warning”
“significant threat to life or property”
Let’s hope they mean somebody else.

Time for the afternoon dog walk.
How are the clouds looking? Oh impressive.
And this way? Very nice.
And what about that way? What’s this thick wind pushing towards us?
Ah. Hm.
Let’s make this a quicker walk okay pups?
(thunder rumbles)

Got enough Logseq structure in #KuzuDB that now I’m on to a publishing workflow.
And because this is me we’re talking about, I’m doing the script to generate site content from the database (which I built with Python) in JavaScript.

Big fat raindrops so I didn’t find a more scenic view for you.

“Some creative jobs maybe will go away, but maybe they shouldn’t have been there in the first place”
Which jobs, Mira? Which jobs?
I know the answer from that kind of mind, of course. All of them. If you lose your job, they were doing your former employer a favor.
If they lose their job, it’ll be a tragedy that demands government intervention.
