I always forget websters definition of punishment is “violent masked unidentified government sanctioned gangs roaming the streets and violently apprehending people” That’s such a g…

These people are shuffled around the country without their lawyers being informed and are “lost” in the system for long stretches of time without representation. This means they ca…

If you mean we created an environment where people could come and find success and live their lives, and we perhaps weren’t as strict as we could’ve been in some situations… I don’…

we cannot claim to have built human level intelligence until "confidently wrong and doubling down" is the default.

If you make it your thing and keep on being good at your other thing, you’re gonna be 90% more valuable than most of your coworkers. I totally lose respect for sr engineers who can…

I think you may be looking past the point they are making. Rideshare was better, it was cheaper, it was nice. Its no longer better, cheaper, or nicer. They're doing fine for sure..…

not every company is FANG. there are tens of thousands of companies operating at sub trillion dollar valuations which absolutely positively do this. FANG (or even "big tech") is fa…

I’m also surprised at the progress but don’t quite share the “AI is doing a good job” perspective. It’s fine. Some things it’s awful at. The more you know about what you’re asking …

Its sort of crazy to think about how big tech companies have a smaller and smaller window to be a "fun" and interesting story/idea. Facebook was pretty fun for a bit, google was ob…

we have a concept called a 401k (and for non-profits a 403b). You contribute some % of your paycheck and your employer matches some amount of that (potentially with a vesting sched…

AI will never replicate this

my phone is with me, netflix has streaming data... meta has my instagram data. the data is all over, and I'm confident that its for sale across the board

yeah, i suppose that I haven't personally considered it to be "very personal", but in today's world, I am evaluating stuff pretty frequently.

People have been getting tattoos for a pretty long time. I don't really see this as stopping that? If you have tattoos its entirely possible you'll actually be more careful in the …

i say this as a tesla owner, knowing that getting rid of my tesla doesn't necessarily help anything..... and having bought my car despite Elon (certainly not because of him) a hand…

That’s fair in certain parts. I like the balance they struck (at the time at least) of not super in the weeds but not high level tutorial mode. A few things around their orm specif…

in my experience, symfony looked like a massive, old, gross, enterprisy solution... laravel got as far out of my way as it could and had absolutely unbelievable documentation. I am…

> even if DOGE and musk are discredited. The idea being that if common sense prevails and folks realize what a shit show/farce this DOGE thing is.... the underlying issues that all…

this is SUPER interesting actually. I definitely didn't realize this. I'm still probably going to use a small army of CTEs for this sort of stuff, but I'm very interested to give t…

i go back and forth on this a lot, but with fewer and fewer "in production" SQL queries in my life, number based group by is definitely my default

I appreciate that somebody somewhere may appreciate and enjoy this, but I am not that person. I love SQL. I have always loved SQL. I know why others don't, but I do and its beautif…

I believe that’s for criminal prosecution and probably has a lot of room for additional precedents to be set

Elon shit posting on twitter and donating hundreds of millions of dollars to a candidate who was elected doesn’t make elons shit posts legal precedent

Trump also said he could shoot someone in broad daylight on fifth avenue. I think that might be against some rules though. Idk maybe it can be a campaign promise!
