Hi, I'm the creator of interlinedlist. Also coffee drinker, guitar player, rider of bicycles, and a heavy metal connoisseur. For more about me, check out my blog at https://compositecode.blog/
When you're managing the state of your database and its respective schema, do you... 1. Setup migrations and have a folder with files, etc, that manage each state (version) of the database schema over time for history or... 2. Have a singular or set of current state of DDL for the active database state and let source control (i.e. git or whatever) manage the over time history of the database schema?
Checked out Last Call in Frelard today. It had a cool feel, decent vibe with some classic rock and metal. Great Philly cheese, even with a wiz option. Also had prominent glory hole juice 🧃 Don’t ask, I’ve no idea. Also, no idea who Brian is but I guess fuck Brian. Sorry Brian, I didn’t make the rules.
Is AI actually helping or hurting development? I had things to say. https://youtu.be/naB2peVOTv8?si=3BC1uaItsApK7Haf
I always find it painful for those of us that understand the semantic, etymologic, systemic, historical, and related first principles of things that have happened in our life time. For example the origination of "DevOps" or "Agile" and know the original coining, intent, and purpose of these terms and principles. Also the simply things like "they're", "their", and "there", "where", "were", and "we're", or the comma usage in this very statement. Not just one or two misuses of these things, but the almost gas lighting nature of entire organizations (looking at whole parts of Microsoft) trying to redefine these things into other entirely new concepts, entire parts of society just ignoring or obliviously not learning these language elements, or a confluence of all these things coming together. But even all that gas lighting and negligent use of ideas and words, the icing that makes the shit sandwich here is, when the failures of society or organizations and people to know and use these concepts and terms and words correctly, then tells you - someone who was involved or knows the concepts and word usage well - that we're somehow elitist or out of touch or don't know what we're talking about. Utterly insane and levels of hubris that I just give no care to. It is almost as bad, and annoying, and frustrating I imagine as someone writing a code library, component, application, or inventing something and then having someone else explain it back to them wrong and tell them they're wrong. Just wild madness among some to do this. It's painful, but also sometimes in that later case, hilarious to watch the person correct the confidently wrong, then mic drop with, "How do I know? Cuz I created the thing!" 🤣 The lesson, I suppose, that I'm inferring in this miniature emotive micro-rant, is don't walk through life with the hubris and confidence that the wrong have. Walk through life with humility and learn to listen, always listen, even if you are the holder of knowledge, no matter the case, and be ready to learn and also teach. With all that said, and my miniature emotive micro-rant complete - y'all have a great day and may this Monday not be like the trope Monday's often have! Cheers!
Gotta say, Nekrogoblikon is one of the most romantic bands in existence, absolute bangers!
A conflated question comes up these days. What does “reviewing a PR really entail now?” Is it AI enabled and mixed with one’s own speed reading? Do we still still expect to read every line of code commit? What’s your expectation now? I have mine, what’s yours?
I've been using several tools lately: Cursor, Claude Code (VSCode), and CoPilot (VSCode) and the differences here are stark. Cursor is solid, the planning stages, custom IDE, etc are pretty solid. Kicking off additional agents, super easy. Claude Code also super solid, provides and gets more projects going to problem and both of these keep going. If you know how to build web projects (and/or others) then they keep going and going. Then there is CoPilot. Often it won't, or can't even get a solid build on a greenfield project. The disparity is wild. Got experiences like this? Had it work seamlessly for you? Up for trading notes sometime?
Morning tunes ended up being several different bangers, I present thee: https://youtu.be/Q7KzEH3DQSY?si=Ba-8m62TcRkUkrP7 and https://youtu.be/RxwT40ZIC5Q?si=-0Jf7XpHtGcNTl98 and https://youtu.be/LQkmz8NxVSM?si=WimJp7pB7hjl74Lh
I bought this Apple watch a while back and have opted for the info heavy watch face style that has the ole' hands of the clock. Lemme tell you when it is close to the hour I have misread it and jumped so many times already. It's almost, like after going years without a watch, I've gotten bad at quickly reading a clock with hands. It's not even hard!? 😬
This week has gotten off to a wickedly grand and fast paced start. New projects, new ideas, and finally finishing up some old projects and idea. Getting https://interlinedlist.com to where it’s in a good place too! Sign up now, I’m setting up all y’all OG sign ups to free subs too!
What should be my morning tunes? What are your morning tunes?

Officially used my watch to pay my transit fare! No more Orca Card needed! 🤘🏻
Ok, I'm going to rant for a moment. If you're setting up calls and sending an AI "person" to talk to me on the phone there are very few ways you don't get black listed/blocking/refusing business by me immediately. EVERYBODY else should start doing this too, it is unacceptable. All of these are based on really basic rules of honorable human interactions: don't lie, don't deceive, and be kind, don't assume what other's are from or dealing with. 1. Do NOT have an AI call me about things and lie about it being an AI. You'll never hear form me again. This should be illegal and I'm sure it technically is if not outright. There might not be precedence but I'm betting there will be eventually. 2. Do NOT have an AI call me, even if it will admit it is an AI (at least 1 point for honesty I guess) if you could just send me an email or a basic check list of things you need to ask me. Especially in higher knowledge fields, this might work in some spaces, but I'm not going to have a verbal conversation with an AI about work I've done that has lots of nuance, specifics, details, and details it has no way to deal with. If you want to talk about it, a human should be talking to me about it. Otherwise just send an email or text message if you still want to be moderately annoying about it. 3. If you think you need to or MUST inject at AI call into a process like this, your process is likely SEVERELY broken already and you need other fixes before you start screwing it up more with a voice based AI call in the middle. Any type of *voice* interaction should be a secondary or tertiary method of interaction with other humans. Remember, when you inject an AI bot or AI audio/verbal process into the mix you're DEHUMANIZING the process, decreasing by default the customer service aspect, removing the personal human element of your service, and overall breaking at least several of the previously stated rules of interaction - if not ALL of them. Feel free to agree or disagree, but for the companies that have done this to me so far, you've lost me - likely forever. The differentiator you'll have to have to break out of the no no list is gonna have to be HUGE.
A successful day trip to Portland is finished! Good times, good trip, much success! Even picked up some new shoes!
Let’s play, where am I!
How Sound Transit should have installed bike racks in trains. This is a functionally superior way, more convenient to enter and extract one’s bike, and safer for passengers too.
After the wandering lunch on Mercer, on the way home I opted to get off at ID and rode over, then flipped around and decided to take the ferry to Bainbridge!
Nice day for a wander about. After wrapping up some project work, boarded the Link for a stop at Tat’s. Which BTW, not a lot of reasons to just go to Mercer Island except: 1. Bike around the island. It’s nice. 2. Visit Tat’s 3. Go to some of the great parks! 4. You live or work there.
It's kind of an SRV day today. Just solid, good, unquestionably top chops blues all Texas style is where it's at for me. IYKYK. Got inspired lately to really, truly, pick up the guitar and not just play but write and go back through all the gazillion songs and things I've written. Feels good, just sayin'.
