devoidfury··on Maximizing the value of your Claude Code sessions
I like the handoff flow so much I built it into my agent as a native tool; and going to add it as a auto compaction strategy as well.
devoidfury··on Why We Procrastinate
I do this.

Every year or two, I get a tattoo representing an idea or a defining point in my life. There are a few that aren't in line with the current me, but they're a permanent visual reminder of who used to live in this skin, so I love them just as much. Sort of real-life version tagging.

devoidfury··on Javelin Hacked?
Not a hack, just some dev humor.

devoidfury··on A spreadsheet in fewer than 30 lines of JavaScript, no library used
I've been a fan of SlickGrid for a while, it handles huge data sets relatively well. If you want excel-style functionality it'll still take a little work.

devoidfury··on E-Cigarettes Bring Smokers Back Inside, For Now
E-cigs were banned from public indoor use at the same time as smoking in my area. They used the reasoning that, for some of the e-cigs, it was hard to distinguish them from actual cigarettes as they look similar, and would cause confusion.
devoidfury··on Why Bad Jobs-or No Jobs-Happen to Good Workers
Same here.

The issue with most people is that "you don't know what you don't know", coupled with the fact that most still have the idea that college/on the job training will suffice, while many companies are no longer providing training.

It takes a specific mentality to take the time to learn a craft with little to no immediate benefit in sight--you see this in other fields too, but they're not the norm.

The question is, do we try to change our culture to generate more self-starters, or do we change the institutions that need skilled labor?
