Moving to Mastodon -- but keeping my account for when @photomatt buys Twitter and fixes it.

wow is shutting down.

But, when I use Django, for example, and I need to enter data directly into the database, I get into issues because if it doesn't pass through the Python code, I can mess up the data. We could use custom admin commands, but sometimes, it's easier to do it directly into the db.

@zeeg We spent a lot of time fixing stuff when devs delete packages like leftPad.

I hate this sensation where you don't know if you haven't slept well or are getting sick.

yikes. but you know what, it was ranking for the question i had.

Also, I spent a lot of time learning SQL, specifically Postgres. The nerds were right. It's so much fucking easy without an ORM. But sometimes it is necessary.

Postgres is so fucking fun to work with. Adding PostgREST on top of that makes it easy to mock up an API quickly. Keep Claude (using Cody) close to check for errors and ensure the decisions are okay and this is fun again. I can contribute to more than one fun project in a day.

This is getting useful, so I'm creating a small Expo interface on top of it because my kids, as they get older, start asking the same questions. The best part? The name of the project is "Dad forgets." 😅

Oh shit, iwantmyname, my domain registrar of choice for ~10 years was bought by a multinational holding company. Time to move. Most likely to DNS Simple.

I used to shit on GraphQL but find PostgREST amazing. I hope you see the irony.

dope.

damn, yall were right. apple music has better audio quality.
