My last year as a Goon.

Excited for new leadership to see their own vision come to life!

Me: I've got a small headache so I'm going to set up a dev environment for this class I'm taking instead of doing anything hard

Me, an hour later: I've got a big headache

Watched a neat documentary on the making of #TRON.

There are "glitch" effects where everything is lighter for a quarter second. Those weren't intentional. The movie used literally tons of film from Kodak to shoot it, and they didn't realize until halfway through production that they hadn't controlled process to keep the film the same order it had come off the truck. If you keep it in order, small manufacturing fluctuations end up continuous through your shots and the human eye doesn't really notice; if you jumble raw film canisters, the difference can be up to half an f-stop and it's very noticeable.

But since the entire film was ultimately animated at the end, they solved the problem by animating in a little sprite or circuit surge or something every time the film quality jumped and several brighter frames spun through.

Fixed it in post. ❤

My employer, Shopify, announced layoffs today and I've been affected. If you're looking for someone with deep experience with developer tooling and developer environments, I'd love to work with you. I've spent the last two years building Shopify's in-house cloud developer environment, and I have extensive experience building developer tools as one of members of the Homebrew package manager's Project Leadership Committee.

Whoop! 🎉 I've just called a #Rust #WASM module from my #Vite #Vue app!

It uses rsw with it's Vite plugin:

https://github.com/rwasm/vite-plugin-rsw

Good examples can be found here:
https://github.com/rwasm/learn-wasm

It requires a bit of config, but not too bad, given that it's bleeding edge.

What tripped me up in the very end:
You need to call `init()` first from your wasm module, otherwise error "wasm is undefined", when calling your function.

Common phases of bash script development:

1. Working out a one-liner interactively at the CLI
2. C-x C-e and then saving the one-liner into a file
3. Reformatting for linebreaks and legibility
4. Hoisting literal values into variables
5. Adding comments & print_usage()
6. Handling runtime configuration (config file, exported env vars, getopts)
7. Logging, verbosity, error handling & reporting
8. Restructuring for performance, legibility, logic
9. Promote logical flow to a different language
