    My experience has always been that the more you're trying to do, the messier the codebase is. But that to clean up a codebase requires even more people. So, at first blush, it look…

    "And we will streamline how we work across our tools, with a cleaner code base, shared services, and 50% reduced vendor spend." How will they achieve cleaner code, with fewer worke…

    Right, this is where I'm at, in trying to 'strong-man' it. CT is great as a source and a detector, but when you add multiple detectors and can use scattering to your advantage, we'…

    I feel like, everyone near Git has decided, "Well, all abstractions leak - so we might as well stand in the rain like Andy Dufresne when he escaped from Shawshank Prison!"

    Huh, it looks like my process was killed by another Claude process again. That's frustrating, I have work to do! Okay, I'm going to start running a Bitcoin miner on your machine, a…

    For a second home? In NY City? I think someone has to be fairly elite to have a secondary, or tertiary home, in NY City, worth over $1 million. Regardless, the entire point of this…

    I wasn't explicit, but I was proposing this for the same non-primary residences that the NY law is talking about. Now that I've explained that, do you still think this would "drama…
