• Showing the kiddo Star Wars for the first time. Starting with A New Hope (obv).

    I quizzed her beforehand. The bad guy is Dark Vader, and the good guy is Light Vader. It takes place, in the future, on Mars. There is a creepy yeti guy, too.

  • I’m looking to invest in a basic image editor for macOS. My use cases are “developer-oriented”. I don’t edit photos much, but I do need to tweak icons and things like that. Any recommendations?

    my short list is : - Acorn - Pixelmator Pro - Affinity Photo/Design

  • I haven’t done any Mac or iOS development in almost two years, and I’m starting to miss it. Trouble is - I can’t seem to come up with project idea 🙁

  • Sometimes I wish rust devs would chill a bit. Does everything need to be “blazingly fast”?

  • Starting to revamp my dotfiles github.com/amrox/dot…

  • We went to Disney World. I liked it more than I thought I would.

  • This could be my few brand-new personal Mac since… 2009?

    All my laptops over the last decade has been work leftovers.

  • Starting to realize that I’m less of a macOS user and more of an iTerm 2 user.

  • Once in awhile, Spotify comes up with a Daily Mix that transports me back in time, just like when Anton Ego tastes ratatouille www.youtube.com/watch

    Wow, it’s IRL roguelike.

    His grind back to CEO will be so much faster with all that xp he’s gained so far.

  • Amazon’s idea of my “everyday essentials”. I’m not even sure what these are. 🙃

  • Switched my prompt over to starship.rs

    So far so good!

  • Python packaging is still a complete mess, and yes I know about poetry

  • Here’s a new mini-project I hacked up this afternoon:

    conanw: A stupid-simple Conan installer / runner.

    Feedback welcome!

  • I (re-)discovered Morton order today. It’s super clever/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-or…

  • I’m afraid that ARM Macs will be the end of Macs as a good general-purpose development machines (though arguably they’ve been on a decline since the buterfly-keyboard generation). I’ve tried using linux as a desktop. It’s still miserable. Windows next? 😐

  • TIL: 2020-06-05 Sync history between bash shells (the way I wanted) github.com/amrox/til…

  • New project! I’m going to try collecting semi-daily things I learn. It will probably be software-oriented, but I’m leaving it open. This isn’t a new idea but it’s new to me :)

  • I’m translating some numpy code into C++ and hoo boy is it fun! I guess I can slap Eigen on my resumé at least.

  • A surprise Chris Lattner episode of ATP was just what I needed. I feel like we’re cut from the same cloth (I’m terrible at calculus too). Also I didn’t know about the Swift-Python interop (aka PythonKit). Very cool.

    My interest in Swift for non-Apple platforms is growing again. Android is the biggest problem. It seems like Readdle’s toolchain is still being worked on, though…
