I think this is somewhat overhyped. If you look at the video that actually exists of this character[^1], it's clearly AI slop that falls flat -- honestly kind of embarrasing for the studio to put out. This seems like more of a media st

out of curiosity, what would it look like to take feedback constructively, but not follow it? i'm asking because (in my experience) executives get hundreds of pieces of feedback and advice. they can't follow all of it, and so th

if a framework has a BDFL, and that BDFL starts getting increasingly political in a polarizing way, then surely it's fair for the community to respond to that.

How does Trigger compare to tools like Temporal or Restate? If we put aside the AI use case, it seems like the fundamental feature is durable execution, where there are a few other options in the space.

This comes after layoffs of ~10% of the company a week ago: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/phmoyer_today-we-announced-th... According to layoffs.fyi there were also layoffs in 2022 and 2023.

Hi Peter, thanks for doing this AMA! I'm an EU citizen. I got my H1B in late 2023, but ended up not moving to the US after all. When I travel to the US for short business trips (same employer as back then), should I enter using this H1

My experience with the new code search has really been the opposite -- though I don't need to sort by date. Otherwise, it's a huge improvement over their previous version.

Extremely cool! This is the first time I'm learning about Livebook's smart cells, and seeing how easily you can toggle between the UI and the underlying chain of dataframe operations in code is pretty mind-blowing.

Misleading claims about privacy isn't surprising coming from Telegram, who have consistently marketed themselves as a secure messenger comparable to Signal/WhatsApp in spite of the fact that the vast majority of messages are not e

My gut reaction to this was disappointment that Signal is working on yet another not-messaging feature a la their crypto integration... But the longer I think about it, the more positive I feel. I actually enjoyed using stories on other soc

Thank you for sharing this; this is very useful context. I wonder if it would have reduced the outcry from their initial blog post if they'd included these examples.

IIRC they discontinued them in favor of the sentero, which just straps onto your arm with velcro (but it looks like they also aren't selling that at the moment).

Thank you for this! I work for a US startup, but based in the UK (hired via an intermediary like Deel/Remote.com). At this point in time, are there any avenues to joining my colleagues in the US other than waiting for the H1B applicati

The promise of XMPP + E2EE (with OMEMO) is appealing, but I found that in practice it doesn't work. For example: you want to start an E2EE chat with your friend on the riseup.net XMPP server. You can't, because their server hasn&#

most services like this one let you use your own custom domain -- i'm working on something similar just now. there's a privacy tradeoff there, but you won't be blocked by websites.

author here —- the short answer is that this also blocks tracking pixels! i’d also say that both simplelogin and anonaddy have a lot of features and can be a bit complex, whereas i’m really focusing on simplicity & UX.
