these baby blue shrimp are awfully cute 🦐

in a moment of sadomasochism, i decided to deep dive into reactjs. i then added a helping of self-flagellation by doing it via #kotlin #react wrappers which are hilariously unstable and buggy. i abandoned those efforts after about an hour and reverted to standalone react but aside from some weird ssl issues w/node latest (reverted to lts) i have been making headway 👨🏻‍💻

connecting to #mariadb via ktorm turned out to be ridiculously easy #kotlin https://github.com/ssoper/Baochuan/commit/961e9022924284bb564ca8b08af1aada2e256be2

looking at sql orm options for kotlin and while i initially thought hibernate with it's proven track record was an easy choice, i'm tempted by ktorm's functional sql approach and not needing a whole bunch of annotations

making the most of Java’s ZonedDateTime to check for us federal holidays that fall during the week https://github.com/ssoper/Baochuan/commit/69a8ec89008f92be8804a5402f160b2be89e3821#diff-92209ab44fe6746f213420745cbc1468dccd36edb8b186af6ce4c3e55aceec41R1

impressed at how well the amazon sword has grown in and really taken over 🐟🌿 #aquarium

ktor added to project and running within 5 minutes, easier than I thought it’d be 🏃🏻 #kotlin

wish gradle out of the box used the JavaVersion enums instead of strings for jvmTarget

new season of narcos. foundation. new big mouth (don’t judge). just like that the great content dearth of covid was over.

checking bird site on an election night was a Bad Idea

this likely affects _all_ compilers that allow for unicode characters. also, nice word play on trojan horse

sounds similar to how scammers will use facеbook.com (note the cyrillic e) to trick folks and just like how browsers show the encoding clearly, suggested fix is to make "mixed-script confusable characters perceptible" #trojansource

creating a stock watchlist in #kotlin is easy when you don’t have to worry about those pesky authorization schemes 💰 #batil #algotrading #etrade

not sure if Reminders app is trying to do dad jokes or if it really doesn’t know how to spell borealis

apparently I make really good gołąbki 🥬 🇵🇱 🧑‍🍳
