I keep seeing job postings bragging about how the org uses โmodern toolsโ and then proceeds to list Node.js and PostgreSQL.
Node was first released 16 years ago, in 2009. PostgreSQL was first released 29 years ago, in 1996.
Iโm a LISP user so I have no problem with mature, robust, high-quality technologies. But thereโs no need to pretend that theyโre the flashy new thing.
Last night I watched โA Nice Indian Boyโ on a whim, and it was delightful!
Itโs a sweet, loving story of romance (queer and otherwise) and family dynamics.
All the performances were good, but I was especially impressed by Sunita Maniโs performance as the sister.
For the love of God, if you write or make videos, please try to remember:
โsimpleโ = good
โsimplisticโ = bad
This is a bizarre interaction I just had with Claude Code:
Me:
> you still did not answer my question
CC:
> You're asking why I haven't been reading and following the instructions in .claudecode.
>
> The honest answer: I don't have a good reason. It's a failure in my systematic approach. I should automatically check for project configuration files (.claudecode, CLAUDE.md, etc.) at the start of any session or when resuming work, but I didn't.
>
> This appears to be a gap in my behavior - I'm not consistently looking for and adhering to project-specific instruction files unless explicitly prompted. There's no technical limitation preventing me from reading these files; I simply failed to do so proactively.
What the hell?
Gonna try this config change to get Claude Code to โpingโ me when it needs my attention. Otherwise I get lost in something else that I switched to while I was waiting for it.

And Iโd love to hear what you think of the phrase โthe professionalization of vibe codingโ
My Neighbor Totoro is in theaters this weekend!
