Didn't send it per-se, just got tired with humanity and took a break.

This! Software engineering suggests a certain professionalism wich unfortunately is hard to find. From an accessibility point of view I am simply not able to participate in these cowboy style events for I do not have the mental capacity to do so. Ironically I have been able to work more effectively than others by focussing on quality.

Coincidentally I published some of my work earlier this week. It's an opinionated library dictating the structure of your core domain. In return it completely decouples infrastructure. This way you do not really have to touch infra at all during day to day operations, which simplifies things immensely! As the domain exists at the very core of most software projects, it greatly impacts the way everything else is designed as well.

Most modern software is way too complex for what it actually does.

Can you explain?

I spent years writing an abstraction to be able to write shorter code... Not sure whether that was worth it 😅

In my humble opinion all these fellas just seem to be running around like a beheaded chicken in search for the slightest amount self worth. Instead they started yearning for surrogates like wealth, power, status and what not.

The problem with these surrogates is that you cannot ever get enough of it. It'll never fill the gaping hole which is their sense of self.

I love spark for how it helps one curate their inbox. For me it made email slightly useful once again!

Am I the only one thinking these trust tokens are not going to prevent bots from scraping websites?

Eventually, somewhere, someone will just develop the infrastructure to work their way around this, right?
