Okay, let's have some Friday fun! 🤪

Just tried your "vibe coding" thing.
Quite miserable experience for experienced devs, but hey, I got something for ya!

Meet Flappy Duke! Put yourself in Java GC's shoes 😂

📢 New post alert: "MCP my HTTPS!"

Finally found time to share my thoughts on the MCP "protocol", why I think it is an artificial protocol that should not exist and even offer an alternative... kinda 🤓

Thanks! I do like the _result_, kinda, but the path to it was not easy (as in, the natural progression towards the result vs hitting the wall every time you take a step). Will likely post again after 6-12 months of using it (and upgrading the distro... oh my 😅)

So much this! TBF Nix itself is not an OS but I can't rely imagine _benefiting_ from Nix without NixOS, and yes, it does feel like "all or nothing" (including packages) approach. In Docker, one could/can still "apt-get install" if needed, and run it minutes after. Nix feels more like Scala

So, I finally tried Nix/NixOS... on Raspberry Pi...

I was so excited to reach my first 1k followers on the other platform, but I'm even more excited to be followed by *that* many folks again 🤯
Y'all have a weird attention to a half-retired memer 😅
(jk, I'll be back in 2025!)

Thank you @bernardolouro.bsky.social for being the one, I appreciate it 🙌☺️
