Substack’s whole social component has had the net effect of worsening my opinion of people whose essays I prviously enjoyed, and increasing my likelihood of seeing the phrase “here’s my banger on Gramsci from 2023.” If I’m there these days, I should probably actually be outside.— toot

imgup v3A few years ago I wrote a thing called imgup. It was a super simple Sinatra app that let me upload images to SmugMug and get a snippet back for pasting into a blog. Then last year I let Claude reimagine it into a go CLI tool, which didn't work so well in the end.

Figuring out tmuxAfter zellij got a little rough with iPad/Blinkterm, I decided to go back to tmux. It felt pretty itchy at first, but I think I’ve settled on a good pattern.

Going through that whole “no, it would have been better to just invest the time in this years ago” thing with tmux. I know there is some outright insanity lurking just over the horizon. For now I’m just learning to set up the affordances that keep my brain from cramping.— toot

clickercrawlI've been playing tinycrawl a lot in idle moments, so I think it's doing what I wanted. I don't like how heavily I leaned on the AI-generated content for it, so I'm making a dungeon clicker in the tinycrawl extended universe.

I guess the test of something you made is “do you actually use it or did you just want to know you could make it?” tinycrawl is passing: It takes about 90 seconds to play a sprint game. It’s sort of a dungeon clicker, I guess.— toot
