You would think it's common sense but I've received PRs that the author didn't understand and when questioned told me that the AI knows more about X than they do so they trust its judgement. A terrifying number of people seem

Tragically I don't make CEO money so I also don't have one but I presume you'd want to have at least one per mansion and another one in the office. Maybe a separate one for special occasions.

I suspect most of it is going to utilities for power, water and racking. That being said, if I was Sam Altman I'd also be stocking up on yachts, mansions and gold plated toilets while the books are still private. If there's $10bn

In my experience every other python tool has a variety of slightly to extremely painful behaviours that you have to work around or at least be aware of. Sometimes it's things like updating to Fedora 43 and every tool you installed with

I dunno if I can move to a design platform that doesn't have a silly name. It'd ruin the joy I get every day when I open it.

Oh, that one's really pretty! I actually went to check if wezterm supported shaders after seeing the preview on your site, but tragically it doesn't.

Bit disappointed that Galaxy is the only one without a preview, what does it look like?

It's pretty handy when tools like lazy.nvim display changes as a list of commit summaries and you have to make a fast value judgment on if you should allow the upgrade. Outside of that, I agree that it's silly to put it in the sum

Honestly I wouldn't worry about it. He's a wonderful writer, the problem is that he doesn't let reality get in the way of a good story. Just classify them with the rest of the fiction-non-fiction books and enjoy the journey.

I see the leaderboard is gone too. Unfortunate but entirely predictable given how the last 2 years went. That being said, I was worried he'd cancel the entire thing, so this is still good news!
