I’ve started keeping a section on my website called the den, for things I look up often. There are just a couple of pages here so far, but I expect it will grow gradually. It’s not in the website’s main navigation bar for a good reason, but I may share it here from time to time.
Cancelling my GitKraken.dev subscription this morning, as I no longer use it. What should be a straightforward process has turned into contacting support to stop them from trying to renew my subscription and cancel my account. You would think a dev support company would have this covered.
The Artemis II tracker is fantastic. Going to be keeping an eye on this for the rest of the mission.
Although Artemis II is only travelling to the moon, the distance is still vast, and even if it is currently travelling at around 1.24km per second, it will still take four days to reach the moon.
I can’t remember the last time I had a Rails codebase that was completely my own, and at the point where I could start implementing patterns and refactorings that actually improve an aspect of the application. Too many of my applications get forgotten about or thrown away. Not this one!
Looking forward to a few days off. With nothing special planned, we’re just taking each day as it comes.
Now page updated.
This morning, I watched Steve Schoger of TailwindCSS take an AI-generated landing page and refine it using Claude Code. Interesting watching how Steve used just the bare bones of Claude Code to achieve the final result. There were definitely some great tips in here worth checking out.
I found myself in a rabbit-hole this morning asking Claude what it would take to be able to re-build a version of Darklands that can run on macOS or the web. A conservative estimate is 1 year. It was one of the first RPG games that I bought for our first PC and I would spend hours playing it.
GitHub is down again (HN link). I’m so glad I took the time to move away from GitHub last year. I’m not confident that things will get any better once they have completed the move to Azure.
Interesting that 37signals are making Fizzy free now. I have no doubt that they will be able to subsidize the product with their existing paid products, but I do wonder if the uptake just wasn’t there. I could be wrong, but it didn’t seem to have the buzz of previous products.
