== Commodore Programmer's Reference Guide ==

Does that title tickle your brain? I translate handwritten notes I take while learning an API or framework into cohesive guides in the voice and style of Commodore's old books, using an LLM.

Maybe you'll find them useful, too...

Use Live Rewind around me, and I’ll break your nose. I’m serious.
New Apple Watches basically have built-in AI to compete with those gadgets that record everything you hear and take notes on it.

Any of my people here software engineers looking for work?

I'd be glad to refer you to the place I'm doing horrible, scabby, demoralizing gig work for currently. It at least does pay real money, and I wish I would've found it earlier in my drought.

You don’t hate PowerPoint. You hate how unimaginative people are trained by unskilled storytellers to use it.

Rusty Lemorande of "Electric Dreams" has been kind enough to exchange emails with me this week about the movie. Really humble fellow; was surprised new audiences love the film!

Showed him @twilightpalms.bsky.social's plush.

And he didn't kill me for using the Pinecone Computer name. Thankfully! 😅

I was promised being watched over by machines of loving grace in utopia by now, reading Whole Earth Catalog on Xanadu.

“We are as gods and might as well get good at it.” We got gods. They’re just not us.

Don’t. Listen. To. Tech. Utopians.
