JD Vance went to a performance at the Kennedy Center of among other things Petrushka, the ballet by Stravinsky. Petrushka is a story about Russian puppets. The jokes just write themselves.

I remember the early days a couple years ago when it kept trying to write Ruby in an elixir file. I’m (sadly) not working in .ex at the moment β€” is that better now?

Anyone got a rec for a book or other media telling the stories of ordinary people who resisted fascist governments in the past? I want something grounded/historical and not polemic. Asking for a friend, but serious question.

I finally axed it a month ago. I miss what is was 10 years ago, but it’s become a cancer again.

Aeropress is the GOAT. But having to figure out how to make coffee before one has *had* the coffee is one of nature’s cruelest jokes.

I’m currently somewhere heavily car-oriented and the ironic thing is how bad it is at making driving pleasant. I feel like I have spent half my life waiting for lights to change. I like cars and driving, but when it’s the only option it’s bad for everyone, including drivers.

Anything with a budget under $100k mark (probably more like $250k or more, now) was effectively impossible if it wasn't also doable self-service. AI tools effectively erase this gap, but the scope of greenfield ideas that are now possible is vast.

This is, if your problem is too hard for off-the-shelf tools with maybe a little customization, but isn't an economic opportunity in the tens of millions at minimum, you can't afford the dev team you need to make it happen.

Here's why I'm not worried about the fate of programmers any time soon: One thing I took away from my years running a dev shop is what I call the "missing middle". 🧡

I like BlueSky well enough, but I have never really liked the Twitter format. What I really want is Facebook ca. 2010 β€” catch up with old friends, share baby photos, and give away electronics.

Young man and woman at the next table over seemed like they were on a coffee date, but no, he's wingmanning her tinder by helping her screen out douchebags. I'm here for it.

I was today years old when I realized that telling your kids to leave milk and cookies for Santa is just a way for the grownups to get more than their share of the cookies.
