Currently thinking of how to create a Jira template detailed enough to use as a prompt for Cursor. Then just need a script to set off an agent and create a PR, one button to accept, and then run the CI/CD pipeline. Should get me closer to the Homer dream. #cursorail

Listening to Springsteen’s Born To Run and it’s dreadful. It’s like a poorly written Meatloaf country-inspired album.

Business idea: selective burglars. You get given 50 stickers to stick on items you love but aren’t critical to everyday life and then the ‘break’ in and take anything of no practical use (including clothing) and sell it and split the money 50/50 with you. You can appeal items for a fee and have…

Maybe it was the whole primitive, hateful idea of the feminine as dark, blind, weak, and evil that I saw shaking itself to pieces, imploding, crumbling into wreckage on a desert ground. And I rejoiced to see it fall. I still do.

In the latter months of his own long sickness the Master Herbal had taught him much of the healer's lore, and the first lesson and the last of all that lore was this: Heal the wound and cure the illness, but let the dying spirit go.

Agile is a weird thing. I can’t think of anything in IT that is so popular and enthusiastically promoted by people who evidently have little or no idea of what it is or how it should be implemented. The closest analog seems to be conservative Christians.

What a precipitous drop in reputation the US has undergone.
Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

“Why are men afraid of women?”
“If your strength is only the other's weakness, you live in fear,” Ged said.
“Yes; but women seem to fear their own strength, to be afraid of themselves.”
