Reading “The Art of Unix Programming” and “How Linux Works” cover to cover is the easiest way to gain a super power. Whenever someone asks me where do I start, I tell them those 2 books!

I remember reading a review for Landau and Lifshitz’s “Mechanics”book where they came away in tears from the beauty within those pages. It’s haunted me ever since because when I bought it and cracked it open, the maths was so incomprehensible that i refused it pick it up again…

💩 VS Code has been lagging for me the past week and a bit, and at least once a day it will just die and restart from where it left off 🤯 It just started lagging again, so I wanted to quickly preempt the random restart with a `pkill -9 code`. For future reference… don’t do that lol. I forgot the last parameter is not the command to kill but a pattern! I ended up killing some Mac services and a lot of other apps currently running. Complete reboot required 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️

On Greenland, I just read that NATO Article 5 can be vetoed by any member country… … so maybe when Trump says he’ll pull America out of NATO, we should oblige

Hey Apple, here’s a Siri feature I’m sure others would find useful: “Hey Siri, in an hour can you check if I put the chicken in the oven” … I don’t want an alarm or a reminder, I want a modal prompt “Did you put the chicken in the oven?” which can only be cleared with “Yes” or “No”

In order to survive Trump’s second term, Greenland needs to shutdown their US military base, and once their gone, open it up to NATO

It’s hard not being so pumped every day when the tech you’re seeing built before your eyes is so damn cool. Being a developer at @fuel-network is 🤘 https://x.com/alfiedotwtf/status/1865923874866741432?s=46

Unless you’re security conscious, security and privacy is not a factor in choice of product. If you’re a builder, think of the security and privacy of your users and build it in and enabled by default… https://x.com/alfiedotwtf/status/1865212701875802430?s=46
