Bluesky: Leftists dunking on Twitter and Threads
Hello everyone! I haven’t quite figured out what to do with twitter or this or mastodon, but glad to see y’all here.
Ppl be using the word empathy just to show off they know a word I think
Am I supposed to be professional or fun on this app
Do people even talk about their jobs and ideas anymore or is it just reaction-internet now?
Truly a strange feeling to have grown up with the internet being your refuge and cherished resource only to have it become utter shit and realize that maybe you don't need it and in fact can't use it the way you used to anymore
Tech people actively say shit like "what's the point of learning about history, only the future matters" and then in the next breath share deeply weird and incorrect interpretations of history.
remarkable how much worse the internet has gotten over the last 10 years. search sucks, websites clogged with intrusive ads, platforms are almost all shit or being torn up on purpose, linkrot, etc
A core tenet of good tech is that we can _reason_ about it. And a common pattern of abusers is that they act inconsistent & unreasonable. That's why it's a giant red flag that AI hype is about systems that we can't even reason about. https://www.anildash.com/2023/06/08/ai-is-unreasonable/
This is true of adults too 💀
Halli is marginalized, too, though. This isn’t a fair criticism.
that’s the good shit

if loosely, design = marketing
in a world where the barrier to creating an app or duplicate is so low, design could be the key for some businesses to really create a distinction
You should absolutely block anyone for any reason on any platform at all. You are responsible for curating your social media experience, and you are NOT obligated to be exposed to posts that rub you the wrong way. Block for any reason. Block for NO reason! It’s free to use!
What is the state of the tech hiring market these days? It's definitely cooling in many areas. But by how much? Are there more inbound applications for the same role?
If you're a hiring manager, I'd love to hear from you, and will share what others see:

“Smarmy POC” really is a trope we’re leaning into huh
There’s two extremes in tech:
1. absolutely no boundaries and “working” 16 hours a day
2. not shipping at all, for some fucking reason
Really should have yeeted my entire net worth into Nvidia, huh?
I’m confused by his tweet. Does he mean he’s going to hold them to a ‘HIGHER’ bar?
Play overcooked and try to survive your relationship
I want to be a golden retriever in the next life. Beautiful. Happy. Super dumb.
“They’ll teach twitter’s collapse in business schools”
Maybe? I guess so. Probably less informative than you’d think though. You could also show Wile E Coyote cartoons as part of OSHA training but most workers probably weren’t planning to glue firework rockets on their roller skates
I keep hitting up against the realization that I’m always going to be a start-up employee. I have literally no patience for anything but execution.
Almost 🐐
;) btw when can I see all them goats anyway
going through pre-calc makes me proud of myself but also I want to die
The biggest flag is when you say, “what’s wrong with being vain?” And there’s literally no answer.
ppl ask/tell my bf that being a bodybuilder is vain
but I dunno it looks like being a judgemental twat is worse.
I suppose because that’s all they really have to talk about to begin with.
