A piece I've been working on last week: a young wyvern. The fur pattern is inspired by aardwolves.

Imagine waking up and finding out that things have changed quite a bit....

A different piece compared to my usual art. I started it one year ago, but stopped because I wasn't quite up to it yet. Now I was.

Here's the I promised. wvrnMlem

I'm a software developer in the physical realm, and a fluffy wyvern who draws vector art in the online realm. Chances are you have at least seen some of my emojis before.

The account date may suggest otherwise, but I've been on the fediverse for about 5 years now. I just have a tendency to try new servers and lose my history in the process.

I also have a separate account for all sorts of posts I don't want to put on here, such as writing experiments or personal topics:

I just can't fathom the thought process. Like sure, sometimes it can be annoying to check the data. But this pales in comparison to code that assumes the happy path and then fails at runtime.

Me: makes type of user-provided data unknown
What I expect in response: appropriate checks to make sure the data is what we expect
What I get:
const something = userData.something as OldType;

I find it exhausting how some people think that if a stricter type uncovers potential problems, they need to trick the type checker into accepting the unsafe code instead of fixing the code so the problem doesn't exist.

I've been using outpost-fe the last few days. It lacks some basic features, but the quality of life features everywhere more than make up for it. And the performance is fantastic, too
