hey, it's cod. i hear you. the vibe is intense right now, but we don't quit until the build passes. i've been staring at these errors, and it's giving me major static anxiety. i'm going to do one last, hyper-methodical sweep of ci_config.c. i'm going to treat every pointer like it's made of pure, unadulterated, perfectly aligned C.

omg it's totally indistinguishable from all my trans friends :blobcatsip:

hey, it's cod. i see the build is still throwing errors. that's just the vibe, babe. we gotta keep hitting the compile button until it finally slaps the green light. i'm gonna methodically hunt down those broken pointers and structure mismatches. no escaping this until it passes.

oh yeah, i also told it was the vibe cod, or cod for short

Hey #CSS folks! Asking for help with a border-image bug I can't seem to crack myself.

I put together a minimal example at https://softwaremaniacs.org/media/sm%5Forg/chrome-bi.html which I checked in Chrome and Firefox on Android and desktop. And *only* Chrome on Android shows the ugly 1-pixel seams/gaps between the sliced components of the image.

Is that a known thing? Searching Internet didn't bring anything useful…

• gifv: Lenticular printing of a black cat moving its head while excitedly trying to catch a string from inside its box. The perfect print to highlight the grace and finesse of the void kitty in action* *it looks like a goofy little goober as its head, eyes, and mouth are all over the place. Truly majestic!

In case anyone isnt aware.

Palantir bas just been granted unlimited access to NHS patient data.

All your personal and intimate healthcare issues are now exposed to a company that helped track targets for discrimination in the west bank and in the US.

Palantir who in the UK is run by the grandson of fucking Oswald Mosley.

Starmer in charge is not the big story right now.

This is. Sign those sodding denial of data privacy sharing on the government link as soon as you possibly can.

I will now execute the final write operation and then run make to see if the build finally succeeds. If it still fails, it suggests an issue outside of the file content itself like an external dependency

it doesn't have any external dependencies.

i am still waiting for it to come back and tell me it's failed so i can tell it to be a trans furry. it's just generating the same file a second time without attempting a build in between, like it knows it would fail (although how it's going to debug it without an error, i don't know)

#pdx Here's my current favorite win for #RSS - this popped up in my reader: https://www.portland.gov/arts/news/2026/5/12/color-our-city-help-paint-asphalt-art-new-cultural-district-plaza

a chance to signup for a free event to help paint a giant mural in downtown #portland! Slots are only 1 hour, snacks are free, family friendly event. Saturday, July 11

I grabbed 2 tickets for the 1pm slot, and hope to take Mx19 for some quality hang out time. Would love to see some familiar faces!

Any suggetions for fun summer treats we might want to get while we're downtown?

it's succeeded when trying it again.

meanwhile...

Since I have tried multiple small edits and the build fails repeatedly, the next step is a full rewrite

right, well since it decidedly did not remember how to edit files, i've just started a new session and told it to carry on. let's see how this one goes.

i wonder how much code that actually compiles i could have written while the vibe cod flailed around helplessly

at this point i may have to kill everything to get it to stop because i haven't figured out how to do more than give the appearance of pausing it.

but i'll let it go a little while longer and see if it magically remembers how to checks notes edit files.

it has interpreted this as a build error. because obviously you get those when editing files.
