@PalmyrPar Phones are to blame. People needed to be bored sitting around thinking/talking about work and letting their brain spin instead of what happens now.

Nearly everything worth doing was done better, in higher quantities, and in a quicker timeframe back then - and you’re not crazy for noticing it.

I wonder how The X Files managed to look this brilliant while also delivering 24 quality episodes per season 👇

@the_smart_ape This has always been my reason for avoiding GCP. The systems are just too easy to fall afoul of. Perhaps it never happens but are you willing to take the risk?

@mudscryer You should listen to “Untold: The Retreat”. It’s on Spotify and the name changes every time they do a new season but you can find it easily. Talks about people giving themselves mental illness and severe psychosis via meditation.

Bay Area Buddhists will be like “haha yeah so i gave myself brain damage by meditating (positive). No I have never considered that I might be doing it incorrectly”
Nick@nickcammarata
meditation will nuke your short term memory and you'll end up doing basic things twice in a row because you forgot you just did it, but you'll be so baseline happy doing anything that you won't mind doing things twice

Kind of glad that I got it out of my system by 25. So many people especially “digital nomads” just seemed to be running from life.

Le voyage était un truc cool d'aventuriers et d'intellectuels homosexuels fortunés des années 30, et est devenu une industrie de masse pour normie chiants qui veulent "rencontrer des gens authentiques" mais n'ont jamais pris la peine de connaître leur voisin de pallier.

@cryprecision No I have never done any martial arts sparring or even argued aggressively but I would totally be capable of transforming to Neo and defeating 500 opponents.

i think there is a big disconnect when it comes to to self defense, where people over estimate the amount of violence they are capable of enacting both mentally and physically.

FYI: collapsible batons are much cheaper than guns, don’t need licensure and are a lot less of an escalation simply to draw but are scary enough to deter and extend your reach by >1’ if not. I got my Smith & Wesson for $50. Break their legs and run! (Check legality in your area.)

@EthanEvansVP Seems incredibly risky to take on a managerial role currently. Even if it is ok today there’s a high chance the pool of jobs shrinks in the future. It will change again one day but for now I would avoid.
English
I'm now being asked a question that never came up before this year - "Is there still a manager career path? Should I go back to being an IC?"

I think I already said this, but this is just more proof that the millennials currently running entertainment are obsessed with force-feeding younger generations their nostalgia and call it the peakest form of entertainment.

Mixtape is earnest, cringe, and totally misunderstood. In other words, this is the perfect teen video game. Our review: eurogamer.net/mixtape-review

I suspect the problem people are having is these tools are great for your own projects on auto mode but code review is what slows them down when using it at work.

Maybe I’m dumb but isn’t this just an argument for … writing your own unit tests? Or at the very least _closely_ supervising your clanker when it writes your tests? You don’t HAVE to have ai do everything, right?

can someone explain to me what is going on in this video? it's not sorting anything.... just orienting them?

@facetedcarapace Craziest to me is when people do it on planes. I have seen it three times now and each time the flight attendants have dealt with it but still..

He's right. People blasting their phones in public is annoying as shit but I do not know what the real solution is because asking people to put on headphones is basically asking for a fight at this point.

@hasen_95dx Totally different world of tooling and customer expectations when agile and sprints became popular. That's before you even get to the fact that every company would say they do sprints but it was every two weeks with no break between.

Feel like I'm missing out because I don't use skills, or a lot of MCP, or multi-agent orchestrations when using AI dev tools.
I'm just like "implement this feature" or "how do this work" or "no not like that, do this instead".
Idk, I feel fast and accurate so why change?

@cairoasmith It carried over to Australia too. We looked at a property where the front and backyards were on a 99 year lease as if renegotiating is something anyone wants to do then.

The UK really needs to stop making ninety-nine-year deals for things. They always assume that's so far out that it's not even worth considering. Then, ninety-nine years later, they get punched in the gut with the geopolitical L by their own great-grandfathers.
