Four interviews, four separate topics: ChatGPT hallucination, Django&#39;s 20th birthday, Soundslice and my latest EP.<br/><br/><a href="https://holovaty.com/writing/podcasts-sept-2025/">https://holovaty.com/writing/podcasts-sept-2025/</a> 2025-09-09T15:47:52Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsgrarw2wq6rhs9egffg9gd72cvjp7r4kelsu66gxmdqd2mz95qz9szyz68upf3glntstuuq3csf3yv9kca8nkaqzsjttazf64kff5267vl2k0e6fu In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrs79u7xhnpw7m6sqzx3wfgkm6sp0xwpjum0rq7xmzzve5zdd2l3g443e5c'>nevent1q…3e5c</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hi, I&#39;m pretty sure I&#39;m the person who insisted on that style for Django.<br/><br/>I continue to believe &#34;past tense&#34; is the best way to do it. Commit messages are used for many purposes, but the *most common* (at least, speaking for my own experience) is looking at history. In which case reading things in the past tense is much more natural, easier to understand. 2025-03-05T19:45:56Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsf7v9q0nnx2ux7a35w6gtrxvteckf63kgpepmd3slk9tw9rfy98fszyz68upf3glntstuuq3csf3yv9kca8nkaqzsjttazf64kff5267vl2fku2xw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstgu6sph3jlshzz3d2zklqynlk4vgec6wwrpe6k63tk6zqpme2ypqurkkx7'>nevent1q…kkx7</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hey, thanks for giving it a listen! All of that (harmonic surprises, bright vibe) was fully intentional, so it&#39;s gratifying to hear this. Much appreciated. 2025-02-11T14:58:14Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrctsej9c3d5m6stspm75n7xpah30mfxnntv3vmm65jr2qptpm84czyz68upf3glntstuuq3csf3yv9kca8nkaqzsjttazf64kff5267vl2z7urqt My new EP is out today!
