Extremely well said. This lesson has never been more urgently important than now.

I've been watching Dagger with great interest, although have not moved production workloads to it (nor, admittedly, even committed an afternoon to setting up any workflows/graphs).…

Yes, the whole thing. The only thing in the entire repo I wrote was the CLAUDE.md, which was the only file at the beginning. I just fire up `claude` and say "Have fun!". The only o…

I gave Claude Code a repo to serve as its home directory during its "20% time", and give it no instructions (see the CLAUDE.md here: https://github.com/delmarcode/20-pct-time ) It …

20% time for Claude Code. Fork or follow along!

Interval trees or ordered segment sets are the "correct" answer but sometimes you can accept constraints in your domain that radically simplify– for example, with equipment availab…

Some users do, and they're right. Talk to those ones often, it's much faster than the full build/measure/learn ceremony.

Hey congrats on launching– Wanted to drop a note from someone who has been burned: avoid .xyz domains like the plague. They can revoke your control of the domain at any time if you…

Pretty nice. I'm still in the market for a good lander builder. initial feedback: - I can't figure out how to change the image in a template, close to giving up - more templates pl…

I wonder if there are any companies aggregating some sort of book of faces.

No. Many SMTP servers are set to reply with "250 ok" for any provided RCPT TO address.

Whenever people compare Tether to fractional reserve banking it ignores important details. Some important differences: - Your bank tells you it's fractional reserve, Tether tells y…

Perhaps people aren't rational all the time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias#Persistence_...

That would be lucky, not smart. If a bank took my deposit to a casino and put it all on black, they'd go to jail whether they won or lost. The risk of holding a tether should be re…

Some economists would argue that "zillions of IOUs" is basically the precursor to currency/money. Then you just need a consistent unit, and that ability to trade/transact (which is…

The difference between a cryptocurrency backed by something and a MySQL database is that in the former case, underlying value is indeed centralized, but in the latter, both underly…

Why would it change value relative to the underlying asset backing it? Counterparty risk? And what sorts of fees and taxes are you referring to?
