Given I make maybe $10/year from Google ads on my blog, I think I'll probably just take the ads off rather than invest in a "Google certified" cookie management platform.

Published my first npm package - a CLI/pre-commit hook for sorting JSON using json-stable-stringify. Obeys .editorconfig, won't choke on JSON with comments (but will strip comments on sort). github.com/tillig/json-so…

Alright, it's happening. HashiCorp ignored our pleas to keep Terraform open, so we created a fork called OpenTF. We've submitted all the paperwork to add it to the Linux Foundation, and hopefully CNCF soon after. Join us in keeping Terraform open! opentf.org/announcement

Decided I hate default interface implementations in C#. Update to something that should be breaking, you never know because the default interface implementation "fixes it" by being a no-op. Now nothing in your implementation gets called and there's no info on WHY.

Pssst... Here's a video of the OpenTF fork running... including end-to-end encryption for state files! 🔐🔥 This is *huge*. This feature has been, uh, blocked since 2014. OpenTF makes it possible. It's experimental for now; official RFC coming soon. Share your feedback!

TFW the IT department blocks network access to your git repos as "forbidden content."

paraesthesia.com/archive/2023/1… I tried out ndepend on Mac and seeing it work cross-platform is really awesome. I'm a fan and I'm excited to see the cross-platform support grow. If you haven't tried NDepend yet and you're a dotnet dev, give it a shot.

There is almost never a good reason to ask, "Any updates?" on a GitHub issue.

🧵 The historic NYT v. OpenAI lawsuit filed this morning, as broken down by me, an IP and AI lawyer, general counsel, and longtime tech person and enthusiast. Tl;dr - It's the best case yet alleging that generative AI is copyright infringement. Thread. 👇

I wrote this Format dialog back on a rainy Thursday morning at Microsoft in late 1994, I think it was. We were porting the bajillion lines of code from the Windows95 user interface over to NT, and Format was just one of those areas where WindowsNT was different enough from
