josef (jk@mastodon.social)'s status on Sunday, 23-Jun-2024 20:13:14 JST josef i cant imagine being like, in a community of people who were fans of a specific music artist. like, whenever i like music, there's 1-5 songs by someone that have a really specific vibe or sound i love, and then 106 other songs by them that just do not. that isn't the basis for being part of a fandom. imagine joining a discord for a band and being like "okay so the 3 songs that are actually good because they have arpeggios like this and this specific kinda structure and"

josef (jk@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 12-Jun-2024 21:37:31 JST josef im sure you can do per-application cursor overrides on linux by creating some files called like cursor.override.d/10-disable-hand-cursors-vscode.conf inside a maze of directories that will stop working in 3 months when you update the window manager, or on windows by installing a 10kb exe called "Bud's Cursor Smasher" that sits in the system tray with a little icon of bud himself giving you a thumbs up and a tooltip keeping track of Number Of Cursor's Smashed

josef (jk@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 12-Jun-2024 21:37:31 JST josef i find visual studio code weirdly unusable and it's taken me years to work out why: the fucking hand cursor. all the clickable UI elements change the mouse cursor to a goddamn hand! and theres no way to switch it off. my workaround every time i encounter this issue every couple years is to close visual studio code and uninstall it

josef (jk@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 07-Jun-2024 19:25:53 JST josef ive been wracking my brains for almost two years trying to come up with a good project that would involve me needing to generate a bunch of text using an LLM. i'm fascinated by the technology, especially tweaking it and automating it. but every single damn time i try to actually apply it to anything, it becomes very apparent very fast that, in every case, the only realistic, interesting, and fun way to "generate a bunch of text" that actually fulfills my requirements is to "write it myself"
