Great to see Ghostty (ghostty.org) hit 1.0 and finally be public. I've been on the beta since October 2023 and it's been a privilege to watch it evolve. And in a stroke of terminal serendipity, Berkeley Mono V2 was released today too - the Semi Condensed version is :chefs-kiss:
Since he began working for us, Sisyphus has demonstrated dedication and determination, resulting in constant improvement in his job performance. Though he excels at tasks performed alone, he brings professionalism, enthusiasm and a team-first attitude to work every day. All in all a model employee.
A lot of you will be getting items with those little silica gel packets in tomorrow, and of course it goes without saying because it’s pretty obvious, but I’ll say it anyway - the absolute best place to get recipes for dishes where you can use those is Google Gemini
Watching the Dr Who proms and remembering that at one point I played the Royal Albert Hall. That was a helluva experience. Sometimes I forget I’ve done more in my 40-something years than the average human, yet I still struggle with the … you know, *human* stuff,
we're firm believers that the best time to write the docs for a thing is as you learn it for the very first time. the longer you wait, the harder you'll find it to remember all the tiny details that tripped you up.
First family gathering after coming out (again)!
Everyone has been supportive but still, I was awash with doubt and nerves going in. They asked good questions, and didn't make a big deal of it... and hearing them use my new name was just :meowmeltlove:
Just a few more things to do before I re-introduce myself in a public fashion :heart_trans:
The Forge CLI makes it delightfully easy for developers to build and run apps on the Forge platform. Read our 10 principles for designing successful CLIs.
A few months ago I created a list of tips for software (Slack, Gmail, Github, Zoom, Jira, etc) that are commonly used in many companies (Elastic that I work for included) and I believe can improve productivity, efficiency and enhance collaboration, especially in remote/distributed companies. There's nothing ground breaking or new here, but I like
Events of the last week have me thinking about something that’s true in a lot of contexts. A lot of people like to have control of a relationship; control of a situation; control of the message; or in this case, control of a community. I get it, realizing that you don’t have control can be unsettling. But in reality, not having control is the natural order of things and you’ll have a much better time of it once you realize that.
Occasionally I wake up in the middle of the night and research foreign residency requirements bc the most powerful people/institutions in the world are intent on destroying me, so I have immense empathy for politicians scared a poor 23 year old trans communist will call them cis scum or whatever.
Tired: “You’re not a switch, you’re a sub who will do anything to please your partner.”
Wired: “You’re not a switch, you’re a dom who sometimes wants to be held and told everything is going to be okay.”

Someone in my life was recently talking about masked autism in adults:
The naive clinician or therapist asks, "do you have difficulty with socks?" and the autistic adult says no and concludes they don't have autism
The really knowledgeable one asks, "so tell me about socks," and receives a massive infodump about the very specific choices they made about socks and comfort
I've been reading *a lot* recently and it's very clear that the worst virus to infect this planet is Christianity, with Capitalism and Theocracy as the worst side effects
a montage as I code with intent for the first time in a long while. It seems that I make the same face when I code as I do when I spar.
A thing I do as someone with profound ADHD, is that when I can focus, I record myself talking a process out and then I use the transcription to stub out my code.

We don't really do Christmas in the Eden household but decided to do a roast to celebrate the Winter Solstice. Happy Solar New Year to all who celebrate!
I was a jailer for two years. Not proud of it, I needed the money.
One of the repeat offenders we had was an old man who was HIV positive. He went to jail several times while I was working there and always for the same thing. He would shoplift items from a store while in full view of a cop. This old man had a cane and could barely walk. There was no way he expected to get away with it.
After he was arrested we had to process him and the medical questions always led back to his HIV diagnosis. The state provided him with his HIV medication while he was awaiting trial where he always pleaded guilty. He was always released after serving less than 60 days pretrial. Upon release, he was given six months worth of his HIV medications (which he needed to survive) and he would shoplift again when he ran out of medication.
It would have been cheaper for the state to just give him the medications without him needing to be part of the criminal justice system first.
He was shoplifting so he could stay alive.

While it wasn't a planned "1.0 feature", the first major #OPA version is substantially faster than previous versions. I didn't even intend to work on #OPA at the time, but started looking into how to reduce the eval time of #Regal linting some of the largest projects. And well, one thing led to another. The 10-20% improvement mentioned is a modest estimate. Regal is about 50% faster, and many other types of policies likely to see similar improvements in evaluation time.
I don’t mean to be a preachy fuck, but the best thing me and Mrs Awfulwoman ever did at Christmas: agree to stop giving each other presents. It absolutely lifts all the stress and makes it a chill time of food, movies, and napping.
What started out a couple years ago as about ~10 IRL friends led to a community of 4,700 active beta testers. I just turned off beta invites in the Ghostty discord. The beta period is officially over; they provided invaluable feedback and contributions ❤️ Getting close now.
I recently found someone’s content that seems great for what I’m trying to learn
They publish content via substack which I refuse to pay for
One of their podcasts they said they love X and it has got better since Elon and it’s an immediate unfollow from me
Today I submitted my first podcast for Hacker Public Radio. I literally wrote a script for myself to deliver, turned on the recorder and read it. I saved the result, filled out a form, attached my file and now it's in the queue to go out. Thanks for hosting my show #HackerPublicRadio #HPR
