Today's Daily Double is... fifteen commits of selfish coding!

gave the whole day to my lil dictation app. no tickets, no reviews, no customers, just me n the mic. the haul:

  • lazy mic capture (mic don't wake up til it's actually needed)
  • a native mac launcher so it feels like a real app and not a script in a trench coat
  • configurable themes bc i stare at this thing all day
  • fixed a crash where the heatmap tried to paint itself before it existed
  • beat the homebrew wrapper's permissions into submission (pain in the ass)
  • an achievement system. my own app now gives ME trophies for talking to it
  • easter eggs. hidden jokes in software with a userbase of one. i will find them later and laugh

there is no coding like selfish coding
