As an occasional Windows user, my relationship with this software is one where Windows tries to trick me and I need to constantly be on guard.
AI coding tools are safe and useful because version control give you branches, diffs (review), and reverts. Why don't our other tools have the same guardrails and affordances? Would it be crazy to stick everything in git?
Cafes should allow me to start a tab and order more coffee and snacks to my table
I don't remember needing much time to adjust between the two, and in my opinion, the moonlander's thumb key placement is more ergonomic for the way that I have the keyboard positioned
I’ve been using ZSA’s Ergodox and Moonlander keyboards for a long time now and they’re both great! They also have an ultra-thin keyboard called the Voyager and though the build quality is fantastic, I just couldn’t adjust to how few keys there are… if you’re ever in NYC, I’d gladly give you mine!

You’ve really got to check, like, 12 misspellings before you’re safe though

Ooh, now you've got me wondering what it would feel like to walk around in a VR environment that just had the depth buffer rendered to each eye. Really wish I had a headset to try this!
Claude wrote this short about what it would do if it had the power to do something about Grok. Just thought it was an interesting generation.
Getting real tired of the "blue states are lawless hellholes" rhetoric.
If you have a choice on where to live and you'd like to avoid being assaulted to death, you could do worse than just checking how they voted in 2024.

If you did this to me, I’d have to cope by going outside to look at other fast things, like horses

While I was eating dinner, Claude updated a ~7 year out-of-date project of mine to the latest OxCaml + Jane Street libraries.

Get this cow a prongler, stat!
I use PBT quite a bit, but I’m always worried that the generator isn’t going to come up with some example I have in my head, so I end up running the property on a bunch of handcrafted inputs anyways
Every time that a pilot tells me the wind speed and direction at the destination airport, I assume that he’s looking for input on how to land the plane
