    One of my favorite channels of all time on youtube. You get to see new places, learn amazing botany facts, local history, and experience interjected spicy opinions.

    Rust is a great tool for what they did with Bun. Why make a whole new tool when existing off the shelf tools can do the job?

    > If there are 10x and 0.1x engineers, you bet there are 10x and 0.1x doctors. This is a false equivalency, as the 10x engineer is measured differently than a great doctor. A 10x d…

    Dispatch works great, and I have reversed the setup so Claude can ssh-spawn sessions on my homelab for non-Mac dependent work
