Ugh. I have a bunch of money saved up but I am terrified this is going to be the great depression 2.

We have never done that. It is also extraordinarily expensive to do that.

No. That's the point. The cops take all the money and don't fix the actual problems we have. Do you think cops should be responsible for finding homeless people homes? You can't just throw them all in jail. Being poor isn&#x2

My golang wishlist: 1. A error return syntax like =? In rust. 2. Sum types 3. Pattern matching There is a lot of boilerplate but I've found libraries like Uber/fx help a TON. Also I've been doing a lot of codegen using a lib

it costs more... but only because the dairy industry is heavily subsidized. Sure we're burning down the planet and allocating massive amounts of water to feed and maintain livestock during drought conditions. BUT! The ranchers need the

when i make a mistake, i apologize and correct it. Especially one as minor as misgendering, which inevitably happens and is easily fixed with a quick: "oh, they*! My apologies!" so your assertion "i don't care" come

i see! my apologies, i did look, and I made it as far as your twitter and still didn't parse that. Please forgive my ignorance! :)

Greed is destabilizing society everywhere you look. 1. Hire more nurses to spread the load around 2. Pay existing nurses more 3. Incentivize people to get the technical training required to become a nurse. "But what about my boss'

This has already happened. The wealthy elite want people frothing at the mouth over identity / social issues so nobody notices how much money they are stealing and how much toxic sludge they are polluting our environment with. All of o

i'm just going to repeat what you said back to you, because it also applies to you. Maybe you're brainwashed to the point where everything Twitter bans falls into categories of "hate speech" or "extreme disinformati

I had the same thought. Twitter is a lot of jokes and is overall pretty chill.

The contract is broken. There is just no hope for the future. Living on the streets can feel like a better option. Everyone is getting hired on as a contractor and getting shitty health insurance and getting treated like dirt. Everything is

One thing I was thinking about today with low-code or node-based programming languages is you miss a really important organizational tool: directories and files. This is specifically in the context of Unreal Blueprints. Files let you organi

I wouldn't describe it as risky. It will inevitably collapse under it's own weight unless properly built. it's not risky, it is a time-bomb that will bury him alive.

This is a really childish article. This person is not an experienced player of games. Not to gatekeep but: trying to say you are an experienced gamer, and proving that with less than a thousand hours of the most popular and normal games of

I'm a software engineer, i make decent money. Every two weeks I pay $125 to have a cleaning lady come by and clean the house. She is self employed and very nice. It is SO NICE for my partner and I to have a week where we can just kick

This is pathetic. Why is multi-millionare Paul Graham bothering to write trite generalizations about "the left's cancel culture?" It is boring and tired no matter now pretentiously you dress it up. At lest Tucker Carlson know

I suspect the person you are responding to is also invested in a certain political narrative. People complain about progressive polices, but from what progressive candidates lol The left is powerless, we got trounced in the last election cy

We need a federal state of emergency and we need to do something about the unhoused crisis. I don't know the solution but we need to start experimenting. Right now 0.2% of the US population is homeless. They are all over many cities on

The thing about monorepos is similar to the the thing about micro-services: they require a lot of tooling and discipline and documentation that most organizations do not have. On our multi-repos I have consistently seen dozens, if not hundr

File length is a bit of a bike shed in my opinion. My main concern here would be separation of concerns and code quality. I prefer many short files and folders structured hierarchically and grouped semantically. I have no proof this is bett

My buddy works at Intel and in his onboarding they asked: where do the most workplace injuries happen? The office. Carpel tunnel is a PLAGUE for older engineers. We all have a ticking clock. So for me a pedal is about saving my hands from s

I feel like the workaholic culture defies everything we understand about modern productivity and I am surprised it is so celebrated in other cultures. I wonder if it is more about not raising quality of living TOO high, as opposed to actual

While it is true that there are a ton of great games out there, the reality is that if you enjoy multiplayer, community matters A LOT. There was an excellent game released recently called Chivalry 2. It was an extremely fun "realistic-

Lately I have been using the metaphor of "keeping the temperature low" at work to describe how I am approaching my work. You see, in the past, I would work on all cylinders constantly worried about how I was performing and trying
