[] 2019 年 11 月 24 日,眾多香港市民在區議會選舉投票,多個票站持續出現長長人龍。非建制派在是次選舉中大勝,反映市民對於政府應對反送中運動的強烈不滿。

只是,在這次選舉裡行駛了公民權利的人,那時並不會想到,這會是香港最後一場相對普及、平等、有真正競爭的選舉。2025 年的政府,用盡千方百計意圖催谷假選舉的投票率,反差更為明顯。

If I shipped Loops a year ago in its very alpha state, it wouldn't be what it is today.

The delay was crucial as it allowed me to architect the backend properly, leveraging the real world usage of loops.video alpha/mvp to build a proper foundation that would become loops v1.

It's really CRUD + ffmpeg that are the real heros of this story, we just put lipstick on it and shout a bit louder 😅

RE: mastodon.social/@dansup/115599

I made a lot of new websites this year, but the one I'm most proud of is joinloops.org.

The amount of time spent iterating designs, writing copy and finding the proper icons was much longer than it took me to redesign fediDB.com

Designing the loops webUI is second, because oh dang it's complex.

i'm not sure what to take away from that experience. i'm guessing that to be productive with AI, i have to keep a lot more "instructions" around than i do (i barely have any). and maybe "skills" so that i can rely on it more. but also it seems like i need some way to feel involved with the output?

but to be clear, it wasn't that i didn't "understand" the code or anything. i understand it perfectly fine. but i guess that during normal development, there's a background index of the codebase being built in my brain. and trying to fix something with that index being cold is distinctly unpleasant

in a sense it's like i suddenly inherited a codebase and have to make a change in it. but even if i know my way around it, there were many small decisions that wouldn't quite match mine, and the feeling is uncanny enough that there's real mental resistance to tweaking it. i feel unusually lost

I don't really keep up with Twitter/X news much these days, but this was kind of funny.

"Elon Musk’s social media site X has rolled out a new feature in an effort to increase transparency—and unwittingly revealed that many of the site’s top MAGA influencers are actually foreign actors."

i switched back to writing code by hand in my hobby project for an interesting reason... it's really psychological but when the AI gets stuck (e.g. the problem is too tricky to debug without good tools and atm it requires a human, or something got too messy), i get a mental freeze digging into code

새 클러스터 구축하면서 어떻게든 해외 회선 비용을 안내려고 쌩쑈를 한 성과를 드디어 봄 (i.e 이제 셋업 끝)

얻은 것: nftables, policy-based routing에 대한 깊은 지식
잃은 것: 대략 한달동안의 주말
