Put your head down, get revenue, everything will come after

Update: I’m camping outside YC with my laptop, Meta glasses, and Jarvis/OpenClaw helping me pull every lever. Not because I’m entitled to a reply. Because this is what I believe founders do: move until the last possible second. One final look... @ycombinator @garrytan

@KingEccentricC3 @kabrieltwt He had pretty privilege: if Rick Ross had Ozempic back then, U.O.E.N.O. wouldn't have been a problem!
English
@kabrieltwt This was a mixtape that went platinum. You don't think everybody heard this and was listening to it. If there was an issue then someone would've brought that up. Y'all live in a time now where y'all try to make something out of everything.

He honestly tells on himself a lot on his songs.

Drake just says lil weird stuff that like Isnt overtly weird but when you think about it for more than a second it’s like why did you say that lmao

My current work monitor has issues, so looking for a new one. I could get a replacement Dell 27-inch one for ~$600, or an Apple Studio XDR 27-inch for $3,000.
I was thinking: would this 5x as expensive monitor help me do better work *at all*?
I see parallels with AI spend...

@jparkjmc they obviously know better.
constantly framing your Automated Knowledge Worker as the next atom bomb just allows you many Manhattan Project-like perks

we are so bad at talking about ai research to the public

🚨 Anthropic Co-Founder Christopher Olah: “I lead a research team that studies the internal structure of these [AI] models … And I will be honest, we keep finding things that are mysterious — even unsettling.”

@adamwathan destroy it, not because of karma or the morality of their wealth or anything like that.
i just want them to finally have something worth whining about if I have to hear them whine while dumping trillion dollar stinkers on the public.

📊 A proposal to seize 25% of the assets of all billionaires is put to a vote.
The catch is once seized, it cannot be used for anything, it's just destroyed.
Your only choices are seize it and destroy it, or let them keep it to do what they want with it.
How would you vote?

@i2cjak > sound out allowlist wondering which part is triggering someone this badly
> *look in replies*
> mental illness is triggering them.
many such cases.
English
I cannot get “allowlist” into my brain. I cannot I cannot I cannot. It never stays. It was whitelist in Minecraft so that’s what it is in my brain forever. Similar for I2C master/slave but Git is main in my head

yesss, great decision @NotionHQ

@ian_dot_so The vibe shift already happened but @Tibo admitted weakness with the Codex rate limit issue, so now the mandate can shift back to Anthropic with Opus 4.8
English
I bet we’re ~6mo from a vibe shift back to OpenAI
GPT5.5 is very impressive and 40% cheaper, limits are higher.
Codex is stellar and taking mindshare of the top devs I know.
Teams I talk to are disillusioned with ROI from soaring Anthropic costs. It’s becoming untenable.

@tomhacks GraphQL is bad because it's bad.
And if you don't understand why people are skeptical of technology from big corps, it's because often big corps have to solve problems that they've created for themselves.
Silly to evaluate what they put out without that context.
English
I don't understand why people are so hostile against technologies that solve problems just because it originated from a big corp.
Graphql is bad, React is bad, MCP is bad, Java is bad... it's exhausting.
If you don't like an aspect of it, solve it and mold it to your standard
kache@yacineMTB
Graphql is genuinely the most retarded idea ever. There used to be an entire career around graphql Honestly the best part about automating programmers is that I don't have to hire people, which means that I don't have to tolerate bad engineering decisions

@grok @HoodflixNetwork @Kurrco @grok which song won the battle, Duppy Freestyle of Story of Adidon? And what was on the cover of story of adidon?

**People were pushing the ghostwriting narrative hard during the 2018 Drake vs. Pusha T beef.** Pusha T and others highlighted Quentin Miller's contributions to tracks like those on *If You're Reading This It's Too Late*, framing him as the real brains who "made the boy."
Drake flips it in the lyric: he gave Q (who was stocking shelves at a grocery store) multiple opportunities and exposure, not the other way around. It was Drake helping elevate Q, not Q carrying Drake. Classic rap beef spin—ghostwriter talk was the angle to question Drake's authenticity. The track still hits 8 years later.

@EricStr45436279 Ab was a regular fighter nothing special to watch but what I liked bout him was his interviews after the fights the way this migga dumb ass nigga talks is entertaining we right there with Chris Tucker

Agents don't need types. They're perfectly capable of pulling off incredible refactorings without. Give them a linter and a test suite, and you have all you need. Token efficiency is where it's at.
Kristofer@kristoferlund
I like types. Types align with my brain waves; they help me create better code. TS/Rust are my tools of choice. When using agents, though, that doesn’t matter as much. I asked OpenCode to build me a simple CRM recently using Ruby on Rails. It came back INSANELY GOOD. One prompt, 15 minutes, database migrations, form validations, authentication, a nice backend structure - the works! Ruby and Rails have been around forever. That makes a huge difference for agents. The older and more proven the tech, the better the result you get from the agent. That is also why Linux has suddenly become such a joy to use.

@thdxr back in my day, projects accreting random unrelated features to become a pseudo lang inside the actual lang... were considered bad for everyone

After spending a lot of time coding with LLMs, mostly using my skills of zooming in & zooming out, I am realizing that a lot of engineers whom I thought were very smart are not really that smart, and their lack of deeper problem solving was hidden by their capability to write code-with-precedence x conversant-with-syntax skills; now these parts are taken care of by the LLMs, it appears they are not even thinking deeply about the problems and trying to jump on to something which already has precedence ...

@Nasmr9 this guy's voice makes me think maybe i need to forget about this shit pronto, maybe it really wasn't that bad

Just saw this short and this is EXACTLY what I'm saying in video form so I don't have to worry about character limits.
If he was THAT beatable, the entire show is invalidated because...they could have just fucking jumped him with 4-6 of them the whole time.
Nasmr@Nasmr9
What is this trend of writers making villains who are stronger, faster, smarter, more durable, and all around insurmountable. Just to suddenly lose all that at the last minute and be dog walked in a way that isn’t consistent whatsoever with what they’re capable of?

@KenFarmerTV @Twitch man if she had said the opposite you'd be pulling your lil' schmeat to it shut uppp

"White guys are inferior, I hate to break it to you"
Why does @Twitch allow porn performing racial and gender supremacists on its platform?
They use it to funnel people to their adult business and spout Nazi-esq propaganda too. Please tell me more about how the "manosphere" has radicalized young boys.

@H8KUcom @ChaiDeluxe i was thinking "they didn't support it because the main guy is Black" and this was the top comment. wow, and there I'd been thinking the assumption was harsh given I've never seen the movie.

@ChaiDeluxe maybe you love slop films made for dei "folx" but not me it looked disgusting and still does look disgusting 🤮 like how hard would it be to have a Japanese cast instead of whatever genetic freaks these things are and why are they speaking English pure Hollywood mockery
