  • I modelled the room and all the furniture in all the possible layouts I could think of using SweetHome3D and this was just the layout I found comfiest 😄. I especially wanted the sort of floating desk thing because I mess with things a lot so it just makes it much easier than when it’s up against a wall. It also gives me more space to work with things since I can walk around the other side of the desk. The TV is in a weird state right now admittedly. I plan to put it on a swivel mount but I really use it so little that I haven’t bothered buying a mount yet

    Idk what part to explain but I can break down my setup:

    Computers

    Desktop:

    CPU: Ryzen 3700x

    GPU: RTX 3070Ti

    RAM: 24GB DDR5? I cant quite remember

    OS: Linux Mint/Windows 11/Hackintosh (broken) tri-boot. Mint because I’m too lazy these days for Arch

    CASE: Hollowed out modded Mac G5 Chassis

    Main day-to-day Computer

    MODEL: 14” MacBook Pro M3 Pro 18GB RAM

    Work Laptop (mounted under desk for storage, swapped out with personal laptop during the week)

    MODEL: 16” MacBook Pro M1 Pro

    That screen in the corner of the second photo

    MODEL: Mac Mini 2014

    PURPOSE: Proxmox Backup Server for my servers in the basement

    There’s also an HDMI over CAT5e/6 receiver and an HDMI switch connected to one of my servers in the basement but it’s not really used right now. Trying to figure out how to setup a KVM switch that can switch between my basement servers but haven’t put too much time into it yet

    Displays:

    Main MODEL: Asus <something> 4K 160hz

    Secondary MODEL: Cheap Amazon 4K 60hz

    I switch between the laptops and the desktop with a DisplayPort KVM switch. The laptops get plugged into a powered USB C/Thunderbolt dock that one display is connected to (for some reason my M3 pro doesn’t like my second monitor though so it’s always just black)

    Random Stuff:

    • Greg Sestero signed Big Shark by Tommy Wiseau poster
    • 2012 Macbook Pro Retina (got me through school along with a Thinkpad I sold o7)
    • Bong collection from back when I smoked
    • Model trains
    • Cool beer cans
    • Stupid amount of old laptops and computers piled up in various locations
    • IBM 5151 Display (the corresponding computer is in my closet)

    I also have a cheap 3D printer

    Let me know if you have any questions!










  • I guess it’s less the response itself but the response objects in the codebase. The main code base I work on is fully typed Python/FastAPI but we depend on an API from another team that was, up until recently, untyped entirely. The responses were just dictionaries that were dynamically generated randomly in 10 layer deep functions. There was absolutely no way to tell what they would actually return, let alone what types they would be. It’s like, if you see a function that’s just called get_big_fat_entity_findings() with no typing, how would you handle that without spending an hour reading through the code line by line? Typing is important for any project that’s bigger than a quick script



  • It never made sense to me that “fish don’t feel pain”. Like, even as a kid I didn’t understand why they wouldn’t. Who would be okay with a metal hook through their mouth? Even if they didn’t feel the same kind of pain we do (I’m sure they do), there’s got to be some part of their body screaming that things aren’t okay. Add on top of that the sudden inability to breathe and it really is just torture.

    I like the idea of fishing (like relaxing on a boat with a goal) but I couldn’t do it
