If you are using Cursor, this is a pretty cool collection of rules (read: prompts) that you can add to your projects and try to make it generate better code or match certain styles better:

26 years ago Fernanda Montenegro was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance in CENTRAL STATION. Today, her daughter, Fernanda Torres won the Golden Globe for Best Actress for I’M STILL HERE. Both movies directed by Walter Salles. What an incredible full circle moment.

I’ve been getting some sporadic packet drop warnings from my router and it all makes sense now, probably me turning the wrong switch off and then back on…
I just had 10h of internet downtime because I did not realize a switch, on the other side of the house, turned off the outlet used by the landline modem 🫠

I'm making a similar shift now. It's time.
Today was my last post on Twitter. I'll be using this account going forward while I contemplate the value of social media in my daily life.

I had some genuine fun managing dozens of k8s clusters and everything that comes with it, but wow I’m so much happier doing other stuff now

........ tell everyone you know to get their election news from bluesky

i can guarantee that none of our team members will be sitting with a presidential candidate and giving them direct access to control what you see online
Elon Musk plans to spend election night with Donald Trump, giving the former president direct access to the person controlling X, a key information platform, on what could be a chaotic evening.
Musk to Spend Election Night With Trump at Mar-a-Lago
Elon Musk has spent $119 million on a super PAC supporting Donald Trump and held events on his behalf. But his ownership of X is especially valuable.

this weekend I’m moving out of a studio into a bigger place, and I’m so excited about the tiniest little things like being able to have a Christmas tree or a dresser

among all of the Google things that got shutdown, I'm very happy Blogger lives on. I just had some great fun looking at a couple of websites I "built" in 2011-2012 as a kid :)

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #39,016!

Wow I thought it would be way higher!

@anatel.gov.br the first ministry. They are responsible for all Brazilian DNS, satellites, etc.
@mincomunicacoes.bsky.social Ministry of Communications are disappointing us. Where is your domain? 😂

mais uma vez avisando

NÃO CONFIEM EM CONTAS COM "REAL" E "OFICIAL", não existe selo verificado no Bluesky mas existe a verificação via site/domínio

trocar o .bsky.social por um domínio é o único jeito de garantir a identidade de uma conta oficial

@lulaoficial.bsky.social troca aí por favor
