Having used Codeium for several weeks now with Vim, it’s a mixed bag. It can speed things up for sequential code writing, but for mass-changes, it actually slows things down. Suggestions don’t apply to other lines in visual mode and it breaks the period (.) operator.
The macOS Character Viewer 🅿 problem.
Today’s bit of fun… the macOS Character Viewer, when you use it to enter 🅿, not only enters the U+1F17F NEGATIVE SQUARED LATIN CAPITAL LETTER P codepoint, but also adds on U+FE0E VARIATION SELECTOR-15. The extra codepoint causes Safari to show that glyph as larger than the others.
Had to resort to Ctrl-V U0001f17f in Vim to get the bare codepoint.
GitHub-flavored-Markdown supports alerts. Who knew?
Hooray for Ctrl-z / bg / disown %1.
Feel so disappointed 😞 when I feel like I need to resort to monkey punching (“monkey patching” is not violent enough of a metaphor).
Apple’s Universal Links suck. They cause me to uninstall apps to get around them. You can work around them on macOS, though.

It’s always weird when you watch a movie that you’ve never seen before and realize that music that you’ve listened to a lot has samples from it.
What’s with Easter egg nog?
Can gravitational waves interfere with each other? 🪐📺
Dr. Becky is this really great blend of academic and enthusiasm.
🙄 at APIs that deprecate interfaces that you still need to use for newly added features.
Really weird hearing all the other songs by a one album wonder almost 30 years later… Extra Fancy and Kitchens of Distinction were ‘90s revelations for a geek that didn’t feel like he fit in with gay culture.
I remove all minimized code from JavaScript libraries that I use (I don’t need to deal with mobile clients), and today I am very grateful for that due to being able to debug my way through a problem that a library reported, but very unclearly.
Had problems getting a systemd service to change the slice it runs under. What finally worked was
systemctl stop …
systemctl disable …
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable …
systemctl start …
I do not understand the need for disable/enable.
