How do you do, fellow kids? #SpotifyWrapped
Being on call when AWS goes down is like being on a bucket brigade on the sun.
Raycast's clipboard history is actually really nice. I bind it to cmd+shift+v and it's very handy.
I wouldn't be surprised if OpenAI eventually introduces ads to Sora 2 (or ChatGPT) because it's an easy way to bring in a huge amount of revenue. But the real value is the data they're collecting along the way.
This data will be crucial not just for Sora 3, but also ChatGPT-6, and giving LLMs better world models.
Training AI models to get better at things that have objective answers is a lot easier than things which are subjective (e.g., is this video "good"?).
@hankgreen.bsky.social's take on Sora 2 misses something crucial: it's entirely about data.
It's a platform for humans to provide massive amounts of free training data to OpenAI by viewing/engaging/remixing videos.
Watching someone you admire descend into madness in realtime is an awful feeling.
All kinds of stuff! The Rails World 2025 playlist is pretty neat:

There's a lot we still reach for JS for that can be done simpler/faster with CSS or even just HTML now.
With GitHub's launch of its own CLI/TUI for AI we now have Claude Code, Codex, Cursor Agent, and Copilot CLI. The competition in this space is crazy.
Slack is fine. If you're more excited to open Discord than Slack it's probably because you use it for fun things. If you had to use it for work you'd feel the joy sucked out of it, too.
Man ChatGPT cuts deep 🥲
I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.
Thiel is the same guy who argued that monopolies are actually good for consumers. Guess I should get a refund on all those econ courses I took in college.
I've heard billionaires make some creative arguments to discourage regulation, but Peter Thiel warning that regulating AI will bring forth the Antichrist is truely something special.
Some good points here about the problems with defaulting to React. I'd go a little further and say many of these team don't need a frontend framework at all, see HTMX, Hotwire, and so on.

Oh, you want a text confirmation of the payment? Just enter your number... again...
Also, THIS TIME IT FORMATS IT FOR YOU WTF
And a $7 service fee for the privilege of paying my ticket...
Paying a traffic ticket and the website requires I add the hyphens to my phone number.
The effort required to build that validation is about the same as just formatting it on the server but that's done of my business...
It's neat that Tailwind has child selectors and all but I wonder if at this point you should just use a stylesheet.
It's been a decade and I still run into neat little things buried in Rails.
say_with_time "Reverting all service rates to nil." do
Service.update_all( :rate, nil )
end
# Output
-- Reverting all service rates to nil.
-> 0.3451s

Haha now worries, I just realized my post wasn't very clear
Also hooks are confusing and unintuitive. The principle of least surprise and all.
My argument is specific to React, I don’t really have a preference whether class components are defined with ES6 sugar or not.
The issue for me is that prior to hooks if you had a functional component you knew it was probably pure. Side effects and state were isolated to class components.
React hooks were a mistake and I don't mind saying so.
Hot take: We were better off when you needed a class component to have state and side-effects.
