Dryveloper

@eliana_jordan If this isn't clickbait, then I'm sad. My first mentor had me follow him and take written notes.

My mentor at my first dev job once told me: “You will never make it to Junior 2.” Why? Because I asked a question about a technology I had never used before. The next day HR and the CEO scheduled a call. I was fired for that same reason. Now imagine if I had a weak mindset. That moment could’ve convinced me I wasn’t good enough. That I should quit coding. But I didn’t. I laughed and kept going. 4 years later: • I have 3 apps making money • I code better than that mentor • I make more than I did at that job And more importantly, I learned things that job would never have taught me: Infrastructure. Security. Marketing. Finance. So in a way… they were right. I was never meant to make it to Junior 2. I was meant to be CEO and CTO of my own things.

@jessegenet There is also the Seymour Cray philosophy - wait until parts have been fully tested before using them in your project.

The average person really wants to believe this because then they can just not try hard to get good at using AI right now and not feel behind… they even get to feel smug! fun! don’t fall for it.

@jessegenet It seems like AI will become another middleman for outsourcing to a human that we could have just hired ourselves from the start? I worked at a bank where there could be 3-4 subcontracting firms getting a cut for each worker.

My @openclaw decided we should hire a human for something on @Upwork 😂

@maiab Isn't part of the challenge that adults have to lean down to the kids height constantly? Am surprised we don't have more hunchbacks 🤓

one of the big surprises I’ve had is that I’m just not physically strong enough to parent small children well

@HustleBitch_ They don't believe the airline will actually pay them the $6000 if they accept the offer. And I don't blame them.

🚨 DELTA OFFERED PASSENGERS $6,000 TO GET OFF A FLIGHT — AND NOBODY TOOK IT A woman filming at the gate says Delta started asking for volunteers because the flight was overbooked. First they offered $800. Then $1,500. Then $3,000. The number kept climbing… until it hit $6,000 per passenger just to take a later flight. And somehow not a single person stood up. How important was this flight that people turned down SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS?

@SullyBusiness @ErinDPT

Wife's physical therapy business has grown so she got a physical location instead of just offering telehealth. Please clap.

@jessegenet @openclaw KVMs are a blessing.

What does having 5 mac minis for my @openclaw life actually look like? At first I thought I'd need 5 monitors lol, but my first agent explained KVM switches to me before I added the others 🙏 🤓

@jvrsanch @martin_casado LinkedIn - the people with the green label on their profile pictures.

@martin_casado where’s the best place to find them?

Nearly every board meeting : "Hiring strong infra folks is incredibly hard right now"

a problem I have often is people just do not understand how dumb I am. like today I called to order cupcakes and they asked me what type of frosting I wanted and I said well, what do you have and they were like oh we can do anything no you do not understand I don’t know what the set of options are for frosting I don’t know what different types of frosting exist I need you to TELL ME so I can PICK ONE

@maiab Hibernating

does it matter if you have a low heart rate? I thought low heart rate was good

I legitimately wondered if this was a prank.

@DefiantLs "it gets worse" - I guess I don't understand what was wrong with the interior 🧐

Woman who got a car from her parents cries in disappointment

@FFT1776 @elonmusk "I can see that" lol Polite way of saying "it shows".

@elonmusk This might be the FUNNIEST Karen meltdown EVER😂 A full-blown ‘hand over heart’ meltdown, over a USA beanie hat! “Elon has done NOTHING ORIGINAL!!” is killing me🤣 “Elon Trunk, Trunk, Trump … ELON MUSK TRUMP!!”😭💀 Top-tier comedy.👇🏻

True

“I am not going to let it kill me,” the owner of Ari's Pantry said after the shop closed temporarily in downtown Dallas. “But it feels like the objective sometimes.” This Thanksgiving, read this small biz story about grit, patience and perseverance. dallasnews.com/food/restauran…

@JebraFaushay I learned I'm not asking Santa for enough

This pre-teen is sharing her Christmas wishlist, and it includes a mini-fridge, iPhone 17, Mary Janes ($140), Drunk Elephant Moisturizer ($72), Benefit Eyebrow Gel ($28), Lululemon leggings ($98), and more. The mother feels this is reasonable and not too much to ask. What do you say?

@JoeFalejczyk @Suzierizzo1 Egg storage depends on the source 🤓 npr.org/sections/thesa…

@Suzierizzo1 Eggs

Who can think of one? 👇👇

@maiab Maybe one of these as training wheels a few months before?

ugh sadly I have no cute go-to gift when my friends have a baby

@maiab Nitrile gloves or food safety gloves may help. I prefer the former, but they require extra caution with knives.

I think I have semi significant aversions to touching food with my hands, leading to me disliking cooking and caring for kids full time

@gunsnrosesgirl3 Knife and Fork. And napkin, if we want to be fancy.

Be honest, what’s missing here

@maiab Does she like that kind of bread? I didn't begin to appreciate grain breads until I was double-digits old.

I asked my three year old what she ate at preschool today and she said her jelly sandwich when I unpack her lunchbox
