    This is basically the thing I keep coming back to with the agentic tools. It is the wrangling requirements, stamping out confusion, and steering away from a trainwreck down the lin…

    This guy is not totally wrong but he is also way off about pretty much everything even just simple basic facts. He writes "Michigan Stadium, the third‑largest sports venue on earth…

    I am convinced that there is an absurd amount of unrealized potential for spectating in eSports. But everyone seems to just deliver an experience that is more-or-less "like playing…

    Baseball is killer in-person but it's also pretty nice to just have on TV. There is nothing else like the tension of a critical at-bat. Football is actually really really weird for…

    I'm surprised that with this many comments about the relationship between testing, development, and QA there is so little mention of environment and deploy process. The usability o…

    His nine theses are basically a how-to guide for replacing democratic consensus with culture war bullshit. He clearly wants to bend the process to match his perception of the world…

    I don't know what you think "worth" means but if "the money we make from this product covers the cost of producing the product" then it is worth it. That was the case until, as you…

    I am reading what you wrote and disputing it but you don't seem to want to hear it. I am saying that denying the sale of all "ULTRA PROCESSED" foods to people receiving food assist…
