Anyone's time is their own to decide how to spend it. You seem to be trying to portray some kind of malicious intent by someone who in real life is a very nice and humble guy.

Just to stymy the spread of misinformation - this is in reference to an interview from 2019 or 2020, where he said he would prioritize women/minorities for mentorship . While I personally don't agree with that notion (IMO mentors

I suppose that for this case, an underground black market of VPN providers might emerge - average individuals setting up VPN software on a cloud service provider, and then selling monthly access to people. Aside from the obvious danger of g

I exclusively use Waymo in SF, even if it costs a bit more than Uber. You'll most often get a great human Uber driver, but there's a very real possibility that the person is a bad/unsafe driver or the ride is unpleasant for a

Brought back memories to over a decade ago with Mathematica. It's quite easy to pattern match simple expressions like: ``` expr = foo[bar[k], baz[V]]; expr /. foo[x_, baz[y_]] :> {x, y} ``` But in real-world use cases, this par

Fundamentally, Postgres is storing rows in 8kb pages of tuples, where each tuple has transaction metadata like `xmin` and `xmax` which are used in MVCC. This means a transactional update is usually only updating one block of memory + any TO

The leaderboard is fascinating. Some people are clearly putting a lot of time into this, while the rest of us are trying to sneak phallic shapes past your CNN. 1. https://drawafish.com/rank.html?userId=1753510318634_cdeh6a4.

This is really interesting and I'm sure it has many useful applications - what I am most impressed by is the popovers in your dashboard, which show SDK examples. This is a brilliant UI idea (executed with great polish) and is the first

Thank you for the heads up - I made some poor React decisions when I was getting started for the sake of expediency, and now need to untangle them.

If you are searching for some insight into human nature and intellect, you may find the history of the Roman Republic (and it's transition to an empire) to have shocking parallels to modern-day events. Trump is remarkably similar to Su

For me personally, I only care about the tab autocomplete. If that's a feature I have unlimited access to, I will happily pay $20/month for 10x productivity.

These are awesome pointers. I especially agree with your first point about writing verbosely - I would do this all the time when I was teaching kids. I would copy and paste things and write all kinds of hairy logic, so they can see how usef

I taught kids how to code for several years, both in person and through a website that taught Python to ~500k kids. My eternal advice with teaching CS is to delay abstractions as long as possible . Teach them how to draw a circle on a canv

Thank you so much for sharing this. We're actively looking for alternatives to Postman right now, and would be heavily inclined toward an OSS solution.

Completely agree. Even with the basic LLMs in the $20/month Cursor plan, I can work 10x faster on TypeScript codebases than I could otherwise, while for Python that multiple feels more like 2-3x. The autocompletions are especially impr
