If like me you’re an Apple user and you’ve slept on iOS Shortcuts, maybe fix that. I’ve implemented a workflow which calls against Linear’s GraphQL API and it wasn’t even that hard. Also built one to generate alt text for images, but going to pivot to calling my API for it - prompting issues.

Trump falling out with Elon was always going to happen. I'm a little surprised it's happened so soon, but then again every day is a million years right now so 🤷🏻‍♀️ You cannot stay in a narcissist's corner forever. They need you to become an enemy at some point. Especially if you're a narcissist too.

The irony of having a disdain for (unrestrained) vibe coding, and realising that the careful choice of words throughout your life to minimise ambiguity has turned you into a surprisingly good prompt engineer.

The Notion task form (defunct) and task@ email (current) and new form (future, will accompany email) are more than just getting overengineery about things. I mean yeah it IS that, but it solves a very real problem. My MS has me unable to hold anything in my memory for over an hour or so. I add the most trivial shit to it. You should do the same. I don’t care how small a task or memory I should retain it is; raise a ticket or it’s getting forgotten.

Since moving to Linear, my Notion TODO form is defunct. Still be notified, but it's a manual process to move tasks over. Until the new form is up, use email. `task @ dave . io` (remove spaces) Attachments up to 25MB are supported. Yes, I know you people will be unable to resist dicking around.

Lovecraft: racist. Dahl: antisemite. And yet it's still okay to spend your money on their creative output. Because they don't benefit from it. Because they're dead. Rowling, however, is unfortunately still ticking.

When you end your shitty ragebait posts with engagement bait - “what do you think of this?” - I unfollow you. Nice and simple. What do you think of that?

Corporate Pride should always be dunked on, but encouraged publicly. Don’t let these fuckers forget we exist and have wallets.

The most important moment in yesterday's #DoctorWho was when Rose reappeared. We hadn't noticed she was gone. And she wasn't there because Conrad couldn't imagine her. Both parts of that are important. It was a tiny moment with enormous weight behind it.

Remembering that time this happened when I checked out a transphobe’s posts. Identity censored because it’s just a 15 year old kid. image
