first dungeons and dragons sessions as a dungeon master was a great success. Dragons of Stormwreck Isles is such a great campaign to start with.

everyone was new to the game and everyone said yes to a second session :)

truly grateful to those who beta test apps. i send out a TestFlight a bit about for Campaign Codex. someone has been giving me phenomenal feedback. it’s so motivating.

built a cli tool awhile back that does a query cost analysis ($$) with @clickhouse.com by looking at the system table and doing some simple maths with your infra cost.

curious if people care about their dollar cost per query vs. cpu cost etc

this 100% describes my feeling too. i get excited about a project and coding. then i realize claude is going to code everything (probably lets be real) and the joy goes away. dont get me wrong i like seeing a product come to life but it also sucks at the same time?? idk

is elixir all that it’s cracked up to be? hard to get over not having types and im not a fan of the gradual typing that’s being introduced

ive been in a couple software engineering communities and so far my favorites are:

1. clojure: everyone is very kind and willing to help. lots of senior engineers in the space
2. swift/ios: lots and lots of builder here which is awesome. indie dev is alive. everyone is willing to answer questions.

the future is typed

long live typed languages

the only language i get a similar feeling with is c# and even though syntax is similar i think its due to ecosystem and the DevEx around those languages.

IntelliJ, Rider, Visual Studio....all of it just feels so so solid to work in. feels like a super power.

as much as i love other languages (esp those that focus more on FP) i always come back to java.

something about it being my first language and it feeling like home just "feels right". does anyone else feel this way with their first language?
