(context: coding-trained LLM interaction, after I asked how short I can make a timeout for a tokio async test scenario):

LLM: 10ms is usually reliable unless running under heavy CI load.

Me: I'm an OG XP Programmer, "heavy CI load" is a misnomer! :-) continuous integration is a practice, not a tool.

LLM: True. CI is a discipline, not a server farm. Real XP: integrate always, test constantly, trust small, fast, deterministic tests.
Respect.

... Finally! someone respects my programming beliefs! #programming #xp #ci #llm #tokio #rust

Maria Milanović et al. (2025) Successful alien plant species exhibit functional dissimilarity from natives under varied climatic conditions but not under increased nutrient availability. Journal of Vegetation Science 36: e70032. https://doi.org/10.1111/jvs.70032

Alien and native species increasing in their abundance did not differ in their leaf traits. We found significantly lower specific leaf area (SLA) with an increase in mean annual temperature and lower leaf Potassium with mean annual precipitation. For trait–environment relationships, when compared to native species, successful aliens exhibited an increase in leaf Phosphorus and a decrease in leaf Potassium with an increase in mean annual precipitation. Finally, aliens' SLA decreased in plots with higher mean annual temperatures.

Stream is BACK, BABY!

Internet is down, power loss in centcomm, stream is down, repeat, stream is- [STATIC] #xp

Mfw Discord is essentially once again trying the Steam route, except this time they might succeed, just not as a game retailer, but as... everything else?

It's basically what Facebook was for millennials back in the early 2000's. Everyone used it, until they didn't. #xp

how long has it been since i've just walked around in circles gleefully cooking up fresh ideas for, not so much content, but... writing. storytelling.

anime and manga panels i sure as hell can't draw, but the storyboards i certainly *can* write.

more than i can ever have time for.

feels good
