Totally agree. Although wherever I go, I map "jk" to <ESC> since I find that so much easier to enter Normal Mode.

That's crazy. I'm thinking Hanlon's razor applies here, there is absolutely no evidence that tether is legit.

Eh you'll probably be fine without his Twitter history. A lot of his takes (such as the recent one on Marxism and the one on editors) were basic and laughable.

I have no inside info of Twitter besides being an interested bystander, but it seems like he's flat out ignored advice (and later fired the advice givers) at multiple points since taking over. I'm sure anyone left is only still ar

I'm sorry but saying "he is a smart guy" is a bit ridiculous at this point. A "smart guy" certainly may not know everything about running a social network, but he _would_ listen to the advice from those around them.

I'm hoping to keep better records as I go in 2023. Famous last words :)

I would love to have some positive XFN feedback! The farther away the better! Unfortunately I was helping out with our hiring process, and let's just say with the recent downturn that hasn't been the most important work lately :(

I feel like there are a lot more promotions to go around in bigger companies though! I've worked in smaller orgs and promotions are harder to come by, if there is even a career ladder at all that is.

I am a staff engineer at meta. I can certainly relate to Carmack's pain in getting things done on a large scale, there are I think about 9 levels between me and Zuck (so a lot of ladder climbing to reach my goal of CEO)!! But I don&#

Hey I am a engineer working in this space. To me I think there are a few factors - 1) I think the whole metaverse thing grew way beyond what Meta/Mark Zuck initially thought (said this in a recent verge interview). Also people seem to

I mean, it's not like this was some super fine print detail here though... It (we hold your money/crypto for you 1:1 isolated and separated) was basically the entire point of the product.

by roland35 4y ago
And this is what really ruins crypto to me. With no actual legal protection, no trust, "code is law", am I expected to keep up with every pull request? And of course these exchanges are completely opaque on top of that.

Still, HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO LOAN THE CUSTOMER MONEY!! If he didn't know that than why was it in the terms of service that his company wrote?

Even if it started before KYC was a law, it's not too hard to imagine that Madoff had better records than FTX which by all accounts was a s$&tshow

IntelliJ also has a "Power Save" mode if you want to disable a lot of the background stuff while on battery. The reality is, with large projects there is a lot of crunching going on in the background. Laptops tend to reduce their

I don't see title inflation being too big an issue at large companies. At my megacorp we have fairly well defined expectations at each level and managers calibrate across teams. It's basically: - junior, fresh out of school and is

Woohoo magic mystery money! How did that work out for FTX with FTT?

Coinbase is losing money the old fashioned way, just spending hundreds of millions more than they're taking in.

Having a dog also helps. My dog is old and slow now but she gets me out of the house! It's extra motivation because if I don't walk her she will pee somewhere inside!!

I have a few ongoing projects - one is a music block toy for my kids (assemble blocks together that makes a song), another is a IoT shelf which syncs inventory. Someday I'd like to also make a large scale pen plotter. Embedded software

I asked it to write a haiku about explosive diarrhea. It got the syllable count wrong a few times, but the haikus were incredible! I find the AI is especially good at combining random cultural elements into songs, poems, and stories. It

My company is breaking big leases and even in the formerly overcrowded HQ it feels at most half full (or maybe half empty??). I don't think most people come in 5 days a week even if they're RTO (return to office). I personally thi

It hasn't even been a month since FTX collapsed. That's like milliseconds in legal time!

My guess: more captchas! Let's see if our soon-to-be AI overlords can detect a crosswalk in a picture as fast as I can.

Yeah I'm sure nobody at Twitter ever cares about olalonde or me roland35 for that matter, but I'm sure if any famous person like Beyonce or Joe Rogan had a request it's going to the top of the pile!
