someone please explain to me why my local AMC hasn't even posted showtimes for tomorrow evening 😤😤😤😤

@caseynewton.bsky.social casey PLEASE tell me the new pod has better audio than these TikTok clips

Been thinking about this a lot lately: when the term "vibe coding" was coined it had a very specific definition. However, I'm now seeing the term used to describe any AI-assisted development. Is there a more appropriate term for AI-assisted coding where you're not judging the written code at all?

just replaced the bag in my bagged vacuum for the first time and OH MY GOD the boomers were right bagged vacuums are so much better

I saw Primetime last night! Great performances, but very disorienting, especially in the first third. I also feel like every Merritt Weaver performance is an AU of Zoey from Nurse Jackie. dstaley.com/movies/2026-09-25...

still thinking about the minneapolis retail store employee who asked me to spell minneapolis while giving them my address.

Just had the privilege of invoking Minnesota's Digital Fair Repair Act with a company that refused to provide a replacement part, but would accept the entire unit for service. It's literally a two-inch water intake filter. I'm not shipped an entire bidet back and forth just to have that installed.

i don't want to go to sleep i want to continue playing the 2002 real-time strategy game Warcraft® III

So excited to start reading this! I loved Sea of Tranquility and the blurb for this one gives me the same vibes.

here's everything I ate and drank at this year's Minnesota State Fair! dstaley.com/posts/minnes...

73 and sunny minneapolis might be the most beautiful city in the entire world

inspired by the incredible Lynn Fisher and her concert archive, I decided to comb through nearly two decades worth of movie ticket confirmation emails to build a list of every movie I've seen in theaters. here's the most recent one (which was very good!) dstaley.com/movies/2026-...

Shoutout to Ambrosia Software for releasing essentially a keygen for all their software after the company shut down! Love that I can still use some of these apps and games.

my new project

Inspired by similar policies from @ethanmarcotte.com, @tylersticka.com, @danny.is, and more, I've added an AI statement to my website. Basically, if you see my name, you can be assured that whatever nonsense follows was the result of my hands on a keyboard. dstaley.com/ai

the couch that puts you to sleep

wasn't paying attention and bought a $23 deodorant that I regret to inform you all is actually quite nice

from here on out I kindly request that all photos of me be taken with New Nintendo 3DS XL. Thank you for your attention to this matter 🙇

I know it doesn't look like much, but this is a Genius playlist generated on an iPod containing songs released in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Considering Apple stopped updating Genius data over a decade ago I think this is pretty exciting!

really getting my money's worth out of my a-list subscription this weekend with tickets to Your Name (which I haven't seen), The End of Oak Street, and La La Land!

you ever write a nice little function and spend the next several hours just admiring how nice it is? love me a good lil function

if you still use an iPod and know what this means, I am cooking up something exciting for you. Stay tuned!

will always be funny to me when artists say the name of the suburb the venue is in instead of the major metro area because why was Hilary Duff like "how are you doing Shakopee?!"

they've been in my house less than twenty four hours but I cannot stop thinking about Jongga Korean-Inspired Pickles

One year ago today, I moved to Minneapolis. Here are twelve things that I've loved about living in the Twin Cities! dstaley.com/posts/one-ye...

great lake vibes

Had an INCREDIBLE time seeing @zeemachine.bsky.social live last night! What an amazing performance 😍

heartbreaking to learn davis schneider uses chandler bats. my heart belongs to marucci (or victus if it comes to that)

it's honestly a little wild that in this, the two thousandth and twenty sixth year of our lord, there's no access to Apple Health data on macOS

entering my cycling era

my position on the matter

my $WORK pr upgrading to typescript 6 is now at 108 changed files and +4,274 -5,176 😭

Well this is interesting: UPS delivered my package to the wrong address (a street over it looks like). Ten minutes later, they correctly delivered it to my house. I wonder how the driver was notified the delivery location was wrong?

I have a Lenovo Yoga C630, which has a Snapdragon 850 CPU. Recently a Windows 11 update causes it to boot loop, and there's no way to get a mainline Linux distro running on it. So I'm putting Windows 10 back on it. The recovery image has Windows 10 1803, so it has a lot of updating to do 😵‍💫

I really wish you could sign into YouTube on desktop the same way you can on a smart TV, just by scanning a QR code. Would be nice to be able to quickly sign in on my work computer where I don't have access to my passkey for my Google account.

I find it weirdly rewarding to port stuff to new operating systems, CPU architectures, and library versions. Things like making sure an old audio processing library compiles on Apple silicon, removing bad path separator assumptions, and updating ancient .NET Framework libraries for modern .NET.

This terrible coffee in the tire shop waiting room is calling out to me like the green goblin mask.

woohoo! managed to grab a steam controller. gonna use it as my excuse to finally put linux on my gaming pc.

gonna get up close and personal with the #FFXIVFanFest development panel to see the changes to the combat system 🧐
