It's crazy the things you find out when you go digging, what do you mean GitHub pull requests are just issues with code?

I've gotta say, Google updating Chrome to get rid of adblockers has just shown the wretched hive of villainy the internet has become. Any game wiki has 4 ads playing at the same time, some just straight up attempt to crash Chrome out from the sheer number of adverts. Bonkers.

This site still hasn't fixed the loophole with redirecting Twitterbot? If you check for the Twitterbot User-Agent and 301 it somewhere else you can spoof any website to look like any other in DMs... replaces the URL with the spoofed one too, @elonmusk . This links to a dev site

After telling me it can speak to me in multiple accents, Google Gemini offered to talk to me in a New York accent. So I tried a new convo and asked it to use one, but why does it sound like Dirk Gently in an awful disguise?

They are clearly not bots because Elon fixed that problem. Obviously people just love it when you complain about APIs..

The Shopify API hole goes deeper and deeper, apparently OAuth only grants a 24 hour access code with no refresh token, their docs say nothing and every question asked by their community has gone unanswered. Is there some secret illuminati docs I haven't seen?!

The addition of the AddMe feature to Googles AI photo editing tools makes me think pictures are no longer snapshots of moments in time, just snapshots of moments that almost happened. Just leave my eyes half closed like a drunken vagabond, that's how awkward I looked there

Shopify's API docs REALLY don't want you to use PHP. There's a whole Shopify PHP library, but entire sections of their docs are locked to Remix with 0 other explanations. I feel like I'm missing something haha

How's my automated @GoogleUK domain transfer process to @squarespace going? Great, looks like I might have to legally change my name though

The entire @HotelChocolat ordering process has so little polish it makes me think I've accidentally purchased from a phishing site

For #genuary Day 10: Hexagonal As @cgpgrey would tell you, hexagons are the bestagons! Today I adapted my lightning code to instead cascade down a hexagonal grid. #genuary10

For #genuary Day 9: ASCII Rather than going for something like ASCII art, I had tumbling black and white on the brain thanks to @adnarimnavi 's awesome marble clock, so instead a series of tumblers that make the binary equivalent of each letter #genuary9
