Gave you an opportunity for a good thorough cleaning. Lord knows mine needs it.
my precious boy. my moonbeam child, my wave upon the sand. if the only thing keeping people from thinking your writing is LLM-generated is that it has em dashes in it. the problem is not the em dashes
I figured it was something like that
This is the second time I’ve quit. Maybe this time it will stick.
What is that dip in 2018?
Wrote a new blog post detailing some of the tools we use at Shopify to help in our performance work.

Heyo, I did the same thing. Deleted FB and Insta for our New Year’s resolution. It’s been honestly great so far.
3. It’s more subtle
It's pretty funny that the Hollywood representation of coding (lines of code flying past on a screen) has retroactively become a real thing
The temptation was too real. Got that credit though!
I literally couldn’t creat an account at American Airlines this morning, it kept giving me a form error, but none of the fields were empty or incorrect. It was so stupid.
I think the issue a lot of devs have with AI is that they haven’t realized that they’re project managers now. PMs don’t write the code for their projects, they herd developers who are probabilistic, idiosyncratic, who interpret requirements differently, etc.
It’s all been shifted one layer deeper.
Eww
So… my cat Phyllis peed on some clothes on the floor in my bedroom. I trusted you Phyllis, I fed you and protected you from the dog, and this is how you repay me?
I’e always been more likely to use parenthesis or commas. I was really into to type and typography, so they don’t bother me, but most people don’t use them so it’s a dead giveaway that an AI is likely involved. I have a rule to not use them.
Em dashes for everything
Very interesting, thank you.
Question, how much of this is on the devs and how much is on the networks and device manufacturers?
People who aren’t tech savvy might not realize that they’re being sold or given the modern equivalent of a Pentium II phone. At a certain point, that old horse has to be put to pasture.
I’m guilty of letting the LLM do this in my own repos.
What about always writing extraneous markdown files in your repo that you never asked for. It’s in my rules to stop it, but they easily forget.
Will this be recorded at all?
Chrome DevTools Console showing lazy loading audit results: 46 images without lazy loading detected, totaling 4.34 MB, with a list displaying the first 5 images showing their resolution (900x600) and individual file sizes ranging from 14.63 KB to 104.76 KB.
I've updated the WebPerf Snippet "Find non Lazy Loaded Images outside of the viewport" to list images without loading="lazy". Now it shows:
- Total number of images
- Total file size
- Individual details: URL, resolution & file size

I never ever knew this was a thing. Very very cool.
pseudonymized sounds like a dirty word

TL;DR
Is music a side project, or the main project, funded by your day time job?
I ask, because I work in e-commerce and honestly don’t give a lick for it. If I could, I’d be writing songs or drumming or playing guitar or doing YouTube reviews of guitar pedals all day long.
I’m at 98/100 in my remote Physical Geography course at Minnesota North college, I could quit now and get a 70% or C grade. The temptation is real.
Oh god, you like to suffer, don’t you
I was playing Nick Harrison’s “Art Official Soul” on Spotify and my wife said “how dare you bring that into my house.”
For those who don’t know, it’s 100% AI-generated covers of songs done in an old-school soul style.
I said “but does it sound good?” And her response? “I don’t care.”
Fatality.
