So how do you feel about the ending thesis that now you are also this American family?

How are you commenting? I thought the internet was turned off in Iran.

Yeah the deal has also changed. Right as I was leaving the messaging started changing a lot and there was a clear top down “you all need to work harder”. They hired an ex Amazon gu…

> You’re right to call this out. This is such a nightmare. Burning down the world so I can read this shit.

So dumb. I wish these clankers had the decency to add a message saying it’s AI. People are responding genuinely to other comments. I have my own Claude account if I want to see wha…

Are you an AI?

I went down a Reddit rabbit hole, a sub called /r/noctor. Basically people, mostly doctors, complaining about the prevalence of nurse practitioners, PAs practicing independently/ou…

God I love that line. I almost wish the story ended right there.

I think that’s a little naive to how these massive dinosaurs operate. Microsoft doesn’t build anything in an afternoon, not even Minesweeper. There are probably multiple careers at…

Yeah exactly. That’s how we end up with ads in our taskbar.

Often times when this stuff comes up I think it’s Microsoft’s organizational structure that’s to blame. Namely that each team operates like their own little company in many ways. S…

Opposite for me. Much rather have an extra day where I can do anything I want with no one bugging me. Workdays are basically a wash for me anyways.

For me at least it’s not actually the price of the Uber but that I know what it will be up front. I wasn’t really taking cabs until uber was ubiquitous though so maybe that’s not t…

Well there are limits. You can’t for example protest in my living room or by breaking into the Capitol building. Trespassing can be a form of protest but it’s still illegal.

I think that is the crux of the problem actually. Same with Teams, what the buyer wants is misaligned with what the end user wants unfortunately. Most resources are put towards mak…

That’s interesting. I wonder if it has to do with size. I work at a really large company and the commissions are apparently lower but the sales jobs appear more stable. The compani…

I think it complicates matters with her being in sales. It’s a much more cutthroat area in companies the size of Cloudflare from what I’ve seen. If you don’t perform you get cut lo…

Maybe just lowering the allowed concentration of thc in products. It’s wild how strong some of the weed is now. Splitting a joint now I imagine is quite a bit different than in the…

I think there's another dynamic at play which makes you both right in some ways. My mom and both of my sisters began having kids in their teens. Despite my family always struggling…

I don’t know tbh I’d assume those people donate because they made some money off of the work done on processing and want to give some back to keep development going. I’d think if y…

Yeah it’s really bizarre. It reminds me of times when I’ve gone to a charities website and things start getting weird and eventually I realize it’s run by some religious cult. Suck…

I don’t know that seems like a good way to make sure no one knows how to maintain these things after the core contributors die. I’ve seen PR ping pong mentioned elsewhere and it’s …

Yeah it just seems like a bad strategy on the maintainers part. Seems like one of those perfect places to teach a new contributor style guides and make them more useful in the futu…

Reply all did an episode about the Foxconn stuff at a specific town. Looked it up and it’s called “Negative Mount Pleasant”. It’s been a long time since I’ve listened but I remembe…
