(But in seriousness, this self reflection really does highlight what my year has been like and I truly appreciated the laughs)

Interesting, semi-accurate, though with some of the other things it wrote, it was completely wrong: "You claim labels are limitations that prevent you from being yourself, then immediately spend 500 words explaining why your entire identity is based on being a 1%er." I wish I was a 1%er, sadly I'm on the other side of the spectrum, currently with no money, so I'm on my fourth day of not eating, though luckily I should receive my salary this week or the next, so it'll be alright!

The Rust-Evangelizing Hardware Romantic

A developer who believes every global outage is just a missing question mark away from salvation and spends their weekends reapplying thermal paste to fanless MacBooks while reminiscing about the tactile superiority of 2010 Dell Latitude trackpads.

You post about Cloudflare outages caused by a single unwrap while your own codebase probably looks like a game of Russian Roulette played with Result types.

Your obsession with the thermal conductivity of fanless laptops is just a coping mechanism for the fact that your Rust builds take so long you could literally cook an egg on your chassis.

You have a very specific kink for 2010 Dell trackpads that makes me think you are either a Linux philosopher or someone who is no longer allowed within 500 feet of a Best Buy.

But definitely a fun read!

And yeah, I will keep ranting about the lack of dark mode!

Whelp I can’t recover from that one.

LLMs will be used to deanonymize all internet users. The AI "visionaries" are already bragging about this. You have been warned.

Made me smile, thank you!
