opinion

The task here is simple: to reduce work, it's a simple investment. The choice of picking the correct bottleneck is as important as the tool itself, as this gives it use. If it's never used, it never creates value. The same goes for uptime, it's important that stability is almost perfect, as downtime undermines the utility of having the tool. Remember that making and using a tool also creates debt for future maintenance of the tool.
To adhere to this, I often choose Golang or Python as they are cheap to maintain. Golang has good stability because it is easy to code and compile checks give early error detection. A word of caution on AI generated tools: while they are cheap to make, the maintenance debt grows exponentially, as the code is often poorly understood by the team and difficult to reason about over time.

I love my custom Linux setup. I use Hyprland, which automatically arranges app windows on my screen so everything stays organized without dragging things around. I also use Quickshell, which lets me customize menus, shortcuts, and system controls to work exactly how I want. My system is based on Arch Linux or Manjaro Linux, which are versions of Linux that give you more control and customization than a typical computer setup. The result is a clean, fast, and super efficient desktop that’s hard to go back from. Git repo

Programming can be a task, but for me it's a source of joy. This is something I do as a hobby, and I don't use AI much. It's about having fun and making a fool of yourself. It's not about how good it is, in this case, I'd rather just listen to music and drink a cup of tea. I enjoy the struggle to debug, the beauty in understanding why a bug is there to begin with.

The text editor I use most is VS Code, but I love the Neovim setup as it enables me to code on a low-level system without a desktop environment being necessary. I do most of my coding on my own desktop, synced with Git to other systems, like the server that hosts this website, which I have built myself. The creation of this website is more of a fun dumb activity for me... go click on one of the movie posters and see.
