Indeed, it appears that he's now deleted his social profiles. Good on him! That is exactly the right thing to do at this point to follow through, so kudos to him. TFA was published…

100%. I get it -- I'm _also_ burned out on social media, AI, screens, the treadmill of the tech industry, etc. But you can just stop doing those specific things. Delete your social…

> He is not fucking around for clicks in any shallow sense. He is undeniably "fucking around for clicks." When you don't want clicks, you don't cross-post to YouTube, BlueSky, Link…

> His BlueSky is professional. It's plainly not. https://bsky.app/profile/chadwhitacre.com/post/3mmvzmugfqk2g "my good friend Dana could really use some help paying for major denta…

This whole thing is eye-searingly performative. Whether or not he follows through and goes dark after this, this farewell is just so ridiculous. Claims to have not used the interne…

This takes me back to my teenage juggling glory days. Truly the golden years in hindsight. I grew up in Silicon Valley in the late 80s/90s and learned to juggle, as many people did…

I would agree that the proper next step after getting comfortable with 3 balls is to learn 3 clubs, not 4 balls. It's much easier to go 3 balls -> 3 clubs than 3 balls -> 4 balls. …

And I spend a lot of my time at home on my computer. The article should have said LinkedIn is searching my house.

> The only difference is that the ratio of fructose:sucrose is slightly (~5%) higher in corn syrup. I think this is a typo? Should be "fructose:glucose"

Interesting challenge, and very impressive. But he isn't honestly accounting for the cost of the salmon, even by his own rules ("Food that I don't use needs to be factored into my …

In case others gave up, it took about 2.5 minutes to load my (midsize city) hometown from OpenStreetMap. So hang in there.

It's the robot bath from Roujin Z, but in real life https://youtu.be/X5i0JU_NsZU?t=464

Depends on the kid. Mine was a superstar sleeper from 2-6mo (8p-7a every night, predictable 90min-2h naps during the day), and then as he got older his napping took a nosedive -- s…

It sounds like you are assuming work = solo work. My day is about 25% meetings, my wife's is about 90% meetings. We can't participate in meetings with a baby in the room (let alone…

What is there to "figure out"? Someone needs to look after the kid. If you as parents are unable due to full time work, you need to hire someone else to watch the kid (nanny, dayca…

Nothing in your description sounds difficult to do in powershell. You can certainly output "many-things" from a part of the pipeline that takes "single-things" as input. Crawling f…

Unbelievable how meta the original comment is. Seems like many of the subsequent replies, too. Skim a few paragraphs and that's plenty, time to share your thoughts with the interne…

Did you read TFA? This exact phenomenon is discussed thoroughly in the post.

I usually find this author's posts pretty insightful, but this one was a miss for me. Just a rambling mishmash of ranting and humblebragging. The main point (I think? Hard to extra…

I don't have that one handy right this minute, but I just remembered that I did a different weather exploration with Mathematica about a year ago. I had a hunch that Ironman triath…

I use it for hobby tinkering, it's quite fun to play around with. Excellent documentation, best-in-class symbolic capabilities, great visualizations/charting, everything you need i…

They recently introduced a 1st-party CLI that supports Linux: https://blog.agilebits.com/2017/09/06/announcing-the-1passwo... https://app-updates.agilebits.com/product_history/CLI …

Looks nice, but seems to be mostly focused on web dev. No Scala, Java, .NET/C#/F#/Powershell, Win32, Azure... Would be great to have JVM and/or Msft ecosystem in there.
