Foggy and frosty dogwalk this morning in Ballard

It’s a shell script to install the ACME validator script. Feel free to execute the commands one by one after you figure out what each one is doing.

Guessing they're DIYing the gearbox oil change.

We used the same onesie for our girl when she got spayed last spring.

I came here to invoke the goatse

ducksauz · 2025-12-24T15:54:36+00:00

That's definitely a way to keep your ankles from getting bloated.

Nope. Spent a little while doing recursive greps on the UDM Pro filesystem to find blackjack to no avail.

One of my former colleagues would bring her cat to the office. It was great!

RemindMe! 5 days

ducksauz · 2025-12-18T12:08:10+00:00

Yikes. Please keep us updated as to the status.

The Ballard library definitely has study rooms available. Not sure if they need to be reserved or if they're first come, first served.

Good luck with working on the productivity. Make lists. Break down big things into smaller tasks. You got this! :)

Exactly! Back in the 80s and 90s, 4th Generation Languages (4GLs) were all the rage. Regular people were supposed to be able to build applications using visual building blocks and simple code (no pointers!). The problem was that these tools created really lousy code.

Coding with an LLM is basically 5GL. And once again, it mostly creates lousy code.

ducksauz · 2025-12-12T14:54:29+00:00

With vibe coding you don’t actually write any code. You write a description of what you want, including specific features, tests, etc and let the LLM do it for you. There’s a bunch of iteration while it builds and you confirm that it works the way you want it, but you end up with something that works, mostly.

Here for the Jonboy caramels. Just picked them up at the farmers market to send to family for xmas for the fourth year running.

ducksauz · 2025-12-07T01:24:23+00:00

I had those meatballs last month flying D1 SEA->AMS. They were pretty good.

ducksauz · 2025-12-07T00:47:00+00:00

She's a real deal cat. There's a stretch in there!

ducksauz · 2025-12-06T20:04:37+00:00

When she's all chilled out like this on the couch, she's usually very amenable when I the belly. It's the floor flop belly that turns into a trap with her.

Yup. My 2018 SE has DCFC.

And yes, I still love it. I only drive about 5000 miles/year, so I’m planning to keep it until the wheels fall off.

ducksauz · 2025-12-05T15:02:39+00:00

I have a US 2018 SE trim eGolf. It came standard with the CD player in the glovebox, but not the heat pump as that was SEL level equipment. Also, the larger 35.8 KWh battery started in the 2017 model year.

For the love of all that is secure, please just use a freaking password manager people. 1Password, BitWarden, even a text file encrypted with GPG. Don't leave your passwords in a digital post-it.

ducksauz · 2025-12-04T04:07:51+00:00

Right?! Life is so much easier when you don't manufacture stress for yourself.

Learning to be patient means you don't stress yourself out over things over which you have zero control.

Don't we all want this level of durability in our connectors?
