why spend 30 minutes doing a task when you could spend 3 hours failing to automate it?

makes me want to yeet all the computers in to the ocean

it's intensely funny to me that the first thing that the final boss of the dark souls series says "what? still here?"

he's the last boss, and he's asking you why the fuck you're still playing the game.

love to find out that a project that I was reusing code from had two bugs that cancelled each other out

meanwhile in my new implementation I only included one of the bugs, so I ran in to it and spent hours “debugging” it

…before realising that I should just include the second bug in the pair so that they cancel out

weather is warming up, so I've moved to cold brew coffee

I tell ya what, the extra caffeine has me V I B R A T I N G

(I feel like I should clarify that this is a shitpost)

I don’t get the big deal with Chaitin’s constant. Isn’t it 0.5? Either the program halts or it doesn’t - 50/50.

it is djilba, my dudes

WA folks - they’ve opened up covid jabs to under 30s today.

Went for a walk up at Serpentine Falls yesterday. Only walked a couple of ks of the 20km loop, but still some nice views

bleh, no breakfast and ramen for lunch makes rob a zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

hell yeah, someone wrote a thing to tell you the ping of other players in dark souls 3, but it wasn't compatible with linux/wine

fortunately they open sourced it, and I've managed to make it work! next step is to clean up the code and make it public!
