@alex when you're preparing to deliver a 20 minute lecture on the illegitimacy of the Ukranian state and need to go print the 13th century documents regarding the eternal pole

Fell asleep to Vladimir Putin's voice ranting about Russian history for two hours.

After learning to code, I heard that Object Oriented code was bad. Convinced by the arguments, I moved into functional programming. It blew my mind. It changed the way I write code. But I was still implementing a lot of interfaces. Now more than ever. Because ideally, you can build your software like Lego blocks where pieces of it can be easily switched in and out.

Anyway, I moved back to writing TypeScript again, now with new ideas. Hyper minimalism. TSDocs on every function. Fully tested. At first I avoided using classes. But then I realized they're the best way to implement interfaces. Now everything is about interfaces. What's right is the *separation of concerns*. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Here's an example of multiple implementations, two basic ones, and a third fusing them together, all using the same interface.

Notice how the script tag is being parsed as a child of the `a` element

God I hate that people act like Apple just invented VR. The same people freaking out in excitement were acting like they were too good to use a gaming headset 6 years ago. I hate the strangehold Apple has on society and the sheeple who mindlessly consoom it.

What's worse is that Apple has "mindshare" over both the rich AND the poor! Especially the poor! They feel like they "need" it to socially compensate for not being financially well off.

Using Inkscape to design stuff. Taking a detour to Penpot to see if it's any good.

A coder dude in my computer science class in high school made this song, and I still think about it sometimes. I don't think he realized how good it is.

Watched this guy rant for 10 minutes about how the tech industry is too saturated, coding is dead, and you may as well not even try. The whole time I was wondering if I should be concerned about my future. Then at the very end he says "you know what job is rare these days? Bitcoiner." Then I knew everything is going to be okay. https://youtube.com/watch?v=l222fIkesAY

Fellas, I just received a handful of Alby invite codes. If you would like to test sending zaps with Zapple Pay I can hook you up.
