Ah yes, we developers, who built the software for you, and are famously known with being very open with our knowledge and sharing materials, books, advice and even OSS software, gatekept software.
Rohan Paul@rohanpaul_ai

Software used to be gated by roughly 20 million professional developers up until last year. Good ideas still needed engineers, co-founders, time, and months of app work. Now, anyone can build. ~ Wabi CEO Eugenia Kuyda

people who want addons removed from #worldofwarcraft want a game for babies they should be asking for a higher-fidelity base ui instead of asking for addons to be removed

Pam Bondi will be known as one of the great crime fighters of our time. She is a patriot who has all of our appreciation. Todd Blanche left his comfortable job at a major firm to defend President Trump against horrendous lawfare. He has shown moral courage, strength and exquisite legal talent. Todd will do a great job for the Trump/Vance Administration and us all.
Todd Blanche@DAGToddBlanche

Pam Bondi led this Department with strength and conviction and I’m grateful for her leadership and friendship. Thank you to President Trump for the trust and the opportunity to serve as Acting Attorney General. We will continue backing the blue, enforcing the law, and doing everything in our power to keep America safe.

@nsg650 in 2026, this sort of performative activism seem to do more harm than good. we are in the political crosshairs. it’s actually needed in red states, rural areas i’d do more for trans people by just walking into a church or TSC and talking to people like a normal person

@nsg650 there’s a point where real activism turns into grandstanding or pedestaling. at some point, when society accepts us, when can we as trans people stop doing activism? it seems like much of the DEI backlash is based on this reasoning, and i can’t totally disagree

Extremely underrated Hasan Piker moment was when he went on a five minute rant about how the streets should run red with the blood of landlords and like five days later everyone found out his mom owns and manages commercial real estate

@devagrawal09 that said, i wasn’t comfortable coming out until the mid-2010s, so there is some utility to it. but it has a shelf life, and i think we’ve become much more culturally accepted when can we consider ourselves simply integrated? at that point, activism feels like grandstanding

@devagrawal09 i try to interpret this stuff charitably, with best intent assumed i really would love for folks to just stop talking about us and just leave us alone. allies putting us on a pedastal just feels like it makes us a target i just want to be left alone. i don’t want to be purged

Sometimes, DHH makes good points and makes me wonder why everyone calls him crazy Sometimes, DHH drops one from the shitter like this and reminds me that he actually is crazy
DHH@dhh

We're far past the point where this "visibility" nonsense is offering any net value to anyone. Every performative post like these chip away at any goodwill saved from doing good work. Just ship code people like without the identity stickers! That's the best form of visibility.

@albertmetzz @garrytan you still have to do the engineering if you are truly serious about this. but you do it at much much higher levels of abstraction. you’re a harness engineer, a knowledge framework developer, something like that

@albertmetzz @garrytan as a result, once i have my architectural foundation solid and well-documented, (again, the agent doing the wordsmithing and typing) it becomes very easy to make changes at that point, what garry dreams of - generating code with only PO skills - is much closer

"my strength is that i've always viewed technology from a liberal arts perspective." this is the entire premise of this account. i'm no steve jobs, but there are still *very very few* ppl in technology that understand culture, & there are even less ppl in culture that understand technology. this intersection is the most powerful modern force on the planet especially with ai. it has a deep holistic & emotional impact on the minutiae to the momentous aspects of normal ppl's life.

was talking to my friend about how most ppl waste decades chasing borrowed strengths trying to look “well rounded”. the worse culprits are big co’s who institutionalize this nonsense at scale.. they literally force you to grind on your weaknesses just to climb the promo ladder. like they even have checklists & middle managers trained to sniff out gaps & make sure you’re baseline mediocre at everything before letting you through to the next level. hated every part of this, absolute trash way of living life.

@signulll this so so so so so hard i feel so lucky to have gotten college level exposure to history, the classics, philosophy, and art (mostly film) a robust liberal arts exposure should be the norm in american high schools

@kekiusHQ @Chrls_Hwrd @ThePrimeagen i like the analogy of a power tool better than a fully autonomous agent it does most of the labor for me, but it’s still a very “measure twice, cut once” sort of experience but we should be putting effort to minimize the checkpoints. context/harness/whatever eng is real

guys, i honestly do not like clowning on Gary. I don't find being the butt of a joke funny, so I imagine he does not either. But, this is what worries me about where we are going. We are actively encouraging an entire generation that the tech is there when its not, and a couple of silly mistakes made on a website isn't the end of the world, but people's data and breaches are serious. We are entering a very VERY hackable world, and I do not like it one bit.
gregorein@Gregorein

so... I audited Garry's website after he bragged about 37K LOC/day and a 72-day shipping streak. here's what 78,400 lines of AI slop code actually looks like in production. a single homepage load of garryslist.org downloads 6.42 MB across 169 requests. for a newsletter-blog-thingy. 1/9🧵
