yeah guess what fucking happens when people try to use your product and it doesn’t work? especially when they need it, like on final exams week or tax day? they’ll never trust you again, and they’ll tell all their friends the same. so yeah it does matter in tech because we’re the ones making the products??

@aarondotdev Five 9s is super overrated. People in tech act like it's the end of the world when things blow up for a day

two 9s on ChatGPT availability past 90 days a company with some of the highest pay and highest talent density in the HISTORY of the software industry. is this our new normal? when I was in big tech we held our four 9s as a badge of honor. feels like those days are in the past..

@justalexoki taoki city baby

what do you think i should put on my banner

@jlaceybrand @justalexoki i do

@aarondotdev @justalexoki Do yall not implement deload weeks into your training?

this is weird but i think being sick and not working out for a week made me stronger? i'm up 2 reps? what?

how does writing someone’s name in on a ballot work if there’s more than one person with the same name?

just saw my little sister in her rave outfit and i guess it’s as good a time as any to kill myself

@zekramu honestly feel really bad for people in college rn BUT it’ll work out eventually similar to dot com crash

@aarondotdev yup few people reach out to me a week, sucks to be a new grad but generally great otherwise

fwiw, the job market is really bad for people with no experience + people that aren’t great devs, but really good for people that are good and have good experience. ymmv but i keep getting cold offer outreach

@websloprat I mean linkedin ya but not like posting

@aarondotdev does having a social media profile actually help

@wack700 @xai my man it was a single prompt about my al pastor being fully cooked or not

@aarondotdev @xai that's a long ass chat tho, no?

grok is a bit cooked rn @xai

@hopes_revenge bro the beans and grinder matter way more than the machine. get some single origin ethiopian beans from a local berkeley roaster and a baratza encore from amazon trust

my chungus morning with the expensive coffee maker Skooks influenced ( tricked ) me into purchasing . whereupon i soon realized i don’t really care what my coffee tastes like as long as it helps me withstand the onslaught of pain and boredom that assails me sharply at 9 am .

claude and i merging 4 PRs on friday afternoon without testing

something AI can't take away from me is the impulsive urge to read through the entire GNU C reference manual instead of sleeping on time

full disclosure this is someone else’s comment on one of @ThePrimeagen videos

feels like AI is 10xing too many -1x developers

@PrasoonPratham prayge

@aarondotdev Banger

@thesightsmith that’s honestly fine if you aren’t working in a large company with other devs

@aarondotdev I am a .1x developer so it has made me a ~1 developer. So now I can build things when before I couldn't. I will take it.

@loftwah 😂😭😭

@aarondotdev You rang?

@crownobyl not so sure about that. the slop gets lost in the slop

@aarondotdev it's good that they get to be worse faster makes good devs stand out much more
