Each time I see a `horse` domain, particularly for entertainment, I remember to `traceroute bad.horse` and smile again.

I can spot Samsung panels from a distance because they've always got a nausea-inducing motion "enhancement". No idea if this is a setting or always on because it's such a turnoff that I'll never purchase one.

Depends on your installation method. I have CC installed on macOS with `bun install` and it self-updates. But you could have different results with, oh, npm or yarn or homebrew or nix or probably asdfvm or maybe there’s a native .pkg I don’

Ah yes, the "fuck your feelings" reductive response. But no, what I meant to get at is that DHH's ego is radioactive. RailsConf tried to open their keynote to having Maybe Perhaps Someone Else Talk Sometime and DHH's res

Quickly followed by folks talking about a warm and welcoming community. Which in fairness, is true! DHH is the counterexample. Platforming him in 2025 seems nonsensical.

GitLab CI is _excellent_. Github Actions has come a long way, but a few years back it was absolutely painful working with GA when I had GitLab CI for reference.

Just name everything Phoenix. (The joke here is: look up how many _major_ software projects have been named Phoenix at some point. It's a lot.)

Similarly to DeepSeek, this—more than dealing with different APIs and routing—is the problem OpenRouter actually solves for me.

I'm glad this was reposted, and would love it to be kept up. This thread has brought me a lot of clients over the years, some of whom I'm now happy to consider friends. I do sometimes crosspost to seeking work/who's hiri

I really appreciate public vulnerability. And I want to offer some contrast—not as a rebuttal, but just as a reminder that there’s lots of different ways to navigate this strange field. The _majority_ of the paid code delivery I’ve done for

Lots of judgment all over this thread. I vote more of us listen to anecdotes like this one here, from someone whose long and successful relationship is based on wanting the best for someone else--who they recognize as human and fallible--ev

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. We’d probably find a fair amount of disagreement in our points of view, but I appreciate your engaging in good faith.

This is a little bit tangential, but _dear lord_ do I miss that old Internet. There was plenty wrong and, despite being a refuge for outcasts, many of us (myself included) were blinded by privilege, but that sense of being in a grow safe sp

It's not a poem that _I_ wrote. That would be silly. You don't have to share _my_ feelings. It's inscribed on a plaque at the base of the Statue of Liberty and is taught in civics classes as a representation of American value

Pragmatically: if you want to enforce the legality of a state-affirmed migration path, it has to be viable. Without a militarized border (which is impractical based on nation size and undesirable for fiscal and moral reasons) and a militari

I like the idea of AirgapOS; "just turn off the network" has always felt a little dissatisfying. That said, if you're already in the GnuPG ecosystem, https://incenp.org/notes/2015/using-an-offline-gn

Which is great if you are fully abled! But for folks for whom sight isn't as strong, additional aids (different colors, different sized banknotes for different denominations) are super helpful.

If by “world models” they mean more contemporary versions of the systems thinking driven software that begat “Limits To Growth” and most of Donella Meadows’ career you can sign me right the fuck up today.

I recall a factoid from growing up in southern New England: that Connecticut had more forestland in my youth than it had a hundred years earlier, because so much agricultural land had been abandoned to nature. Presumably farmers wanted soil
