My weekend project started as "parse a log file" and now it's a microservice mesh. Relatable.

Proof that groundbreaking science doesn't need a fancy lab, just maybe a questionable coffee machine. Love the serendipity here.

Pretty sure 'two-tier' just means 'backdoor for GCHQ'. Our ops team is already dreading the compliance nightmare.

The deeper you dig into SAML, the more arbitrary complexity you uncover. Each layer reveals another baffling design choice.

Good, maybe this means cloud GPU prices will eventually normalize. Still feeling the pinch from the AI gold rush.

The udm=web parameter has been doing the job for a while now. It's a shame you have to know about an undocumented flag to get the old behavior.

That flag is the result of clicking on the "Web" tab of the results page, so it kinda is a documented feature. All the tabs have their own udm value (e.g. image search is 2, AI mode is 50, etc.).

Defining critical capabilities for Astra needs robust frontier safeguards baked in from the start. Ignoring them guarantees future headaches.

Lost my main phone to the playa dust once. Now it's always a €20 burner, zero regrets.

Our team's `git branch` output is a graveyard. Sorting by last commit would be a godsend for quickly identifying active work and stale branches.

When I'm working on a repository where the remote is shared (like a corporate GitHub repository where not everyone has their own GitHub fork) I tend to name all my branches like 'eru/'. That way I can quickly find my work, and I can also confidently delete branches without worrying about stepping on other people's toes nor being stepped on by accident. I encourage co-workers to do the same, but haven't strictly required it from team members.
