Nobody knows how the whole system works One of the surprising (at least to me) consequences of the fall of Twitter is the rise of LinkedIn as a social media site. I saw some interesting posts I wanted to call attention to: First, Simon W…

Clickhouse is such a great database. Love using them. I love how easy it is to import/export to S3 buckets in any format you want.

ok but this is not madness. mad kings build romantic castles in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps and leave figuring out how to pay for it and running the govt to their ministers. this is Wilhelm II on steroids, a very stupid, vain man given the power to toy with things beyond his understanding

just a quick reminder that one of the countries we're tariffing over Greenland is home to The Only Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography Company That Matters

All EU exports to US are c. 2.6% of EU GDP, a fraction less than increase in EU defense spending US is pushing. So m/t macro impulse from stop in EU exports to US would be offset by military Keynesianism that followed from substituting for US protection/kit as service/racket.

yeah that is what I mean. I do wonder if the requirement for using AI assistance coding is that you have a experience/intuition cause the AI assistance coding puts reviewing in a bigger spotlight imo

Based on feeling I think that AI coding assistants accelerate the people who have spend lots of time coding and building large scale applications see antirez, Armin, Mitchell etc. makes me wonder how this plays out for new grads who are studying with coding assistants.

To the extent that LLMs shift the Pareto curve on time spent vs quality level of code, I'd much rather people spend the extra time improving code quality. Do the thing that's annoying to write and has many edge cases to test but has a cleaner UX. Aggressively refactor. Tackle the TODOs

Pre covid I had way more encounters in Germany where I could only pay cash in restaurants. Ever since covid I have only paying with card in restaurants. I wonder if there is some statistic about cash love pre & post covid.

In the first chart how is performance measured? From the perspective of USD or countries main index performance?

This and the discussion about how academics can now just read AI summaries of things really drives home how much these guys always confuse the product for the goal. You don't do a coloring sheet because you want to have a colored sheet at the end!!! The coloring is the point!!!

1. The short answer is – revolutions don’t work the way you think. Revolutions aren’t initiated by the poor against the rich. They are crusades launched by the top 2% against the top 1%. -- Manu Joseph

Who you got T1 or KT?

It's really not, bc private investors will tolerate vast amounts of authoritarianism/corruption (see: investment in 🇨🇳 etc. over the last 30 years) & bc baseline growth prospects in 🇪🇺/🇯🇵/etc. were far below 🇺🇸 in January 2025, & because there is nowhere else to go at scale:
