Last week, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Nearly one in eight women in the United States will face this diagnosis. Every day, these women continue to raise their families, go to work, and serve their communities with strength and determination. I now join their ranks. I am grateful to have an outstanding team of doctors who detected the cancer early and are guiding my care, and I am encouraged by a very good prognosis. I am also deeply thankful for the support and encouragement of President Trump as I undergo treatment and continue serving in my role as White House Chief of Staff.

@AstraKernel Absolutely agree. If AI is going to be writing most of the code, use the strongest, most efficient, and safest language. The latest models are great at writing Rust.

▶️ Don't do AI code in Python or Javascript or Go Give it a try to Rust You will have a good performance and less buggy app (Rust is known to have speed close to C) Unless you have some other reasons...
AstraKernel 💫@AstraKernel

I (and others also) feel Rust might be the best choice for Vibe coding. Rust type safety can help much and you get a better performance app. Have you tried this? If so, - With which AI model? - How was your experience?

@ThePrimeagen Praying the Lord will give you healing and the grace to deal with things as they are while you wait to recover. May you grow closer to Him through this challenging time and I know He will bring you safely through this. He is in the fire with you. You are in my prayers. Peace.

i say this with all honesty i think that i have become a wretch over this last week wallowing in despair about my throat. it was an injury that i could not face, i had no control over, and it was taking things from me, more than just my job, but who i am at my core. i couldn't talk to my kids, i couldn't speak with my wife, and i felt powerless. i certainly was angry, very angry about it all. but over the last day my heart has changed, and i accept the fact that this has happened, and maybe i will be better for it in the end. i am returning to my former self and remembering the reasons why i did what i did in the beginning. for it was the joy of the programming and talking about it, it was not for the updoots. I have often felt like Eric Liddell when he said "I believe God made me for a purpose, but He also made me fast. And when I run, I feel His pleasure." I believe the same thing, but I, much to my highschool memories, was never fast, but great at programming and i believe i feel His pleasure when i program. all of this to say that i am happy where i am at despite feeling the loss of many things and i look forward to where i am going. this was not an easy thing to accept, but i accept it more and more i would have lost heart, unless i had believed that i would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living -- Psalms 27:13

BREAKING: Reports are coming out that Senator Cassidy (R-LA) is unwilling to vote to confirm RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary. Let's send him a message... if you think that @SenBillCassidy should vote to confirm RFK Jr., leave a "👍" in the comments.

@KenDBerryMD In 2020 when the Front Line Doctors were censored from the internet in less than 24 hours when discussing alternate treatments, that woke me up. Doctors disagree on the best treatments all the time, but I had never seen such vicious push back and censorship by the "experts".

What was your wake-up moment? Was it a news story you knew was incorrect, or a health issue you fixed yourself? Was it a narrative that was obviously wrong, or something an expert you trusted said that was misleading? It seems like people are waking up at an increasing rate, although some "experts" seem to think this is bad...
Hans C Nelson 🗽@HansCNelson

Belief in the news narrative is a one way ratchet. Once you get out, there's no going back. And more people are getting out every day. They just have to lie about one really important thing to you, and then you get it.

@ThePrimeagen Agreed. Unless I am dynamically creating a function by composing or partially applying arguments, I always prefer the function syntax over the const arrow. Function hoisting allows you to put it later in the page and it is easier to recognize when scanning the code.

What do you prefer? Functional Programming: let sum = List.fold_left ( + ) 0 or imperative programming: fun sum(list: List<Int>): Int { var res = 0 for (element in list) { res += element } return res }

Robert F. Kennedy Jr
Robert F. Kennedy Jr@RobertKennedyJr·
My mom, Ethel Skakel Kennedy, passed peacefully into Heaven this morning. She was 96. She died in Boston surrounded by many of her nine surviving children and her friends. God gave her 34 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren, and the energy to give them all the attention they required. He blessed her with a rich and eventful life. Even as she declined in recent months, she never lost her sense of fun, her humor, her spark, her spunk, and her joie de vivre. She wrung joy from every moment, but for 56 years she has spoken with yearning of the day she would reunite with her beloved husband. She is with him now, with my brothers David and Michael, with her parents, her six siblings, all of whom predeceased her, and her “adopted” Kennedy siblings Jack, Kick, Joe, Teddy, Eunice, Jean, Rosemary, and Patricia. From the day she met my father, her new family observed that she was “more Kennedy than the Kennedys.” She was never more enthusiastic about the afterlife than when she considered that she would also be reunited with her many dogs, including 16 Irish setters — all conveniently named “Rusty.” The cognitive dissonance that allowed her to keep two inconsistent truths in her heart at the same time without budging made my mother a collection of irreconcilable convictions. Among these was her ironic combination of deep — nearly blind — reverence for the Catholic Church and irreverence toward its clerics. She was at once starstruck by America’s presidents, all of whom she came to know personally, and at the same time skeptical of government and toward all figures of authority. She balanced her contempt for pretension and hypocrisy with a boundless tolerance for error and mistakes in others. God also endowed her with a perpetual attitude of gratitude that fueled her taste for adventure and an irrepressible buoyancy in a life beset by a continuous parade of heartbreaking tragedies. Her sunny optimism eventually brought my shattered father back to life following the assassination of his brother and then helped her children to thrive after her husband’s assassination five years later. Among her most defining qualities were moral and physical fearlessness. She was a peerless equestrian and held the high jump record on horseback, jumping 7′9″ on a Quarter Horse. Critics named her among the best female amateur tennis players, and she was a competitive diver. But she did every sport well — from football to skiing, waterskiing and kayaking. Her disciplined stoicism and her deep faith in God enabled her to endure over ten years of pregnancy without complaint. She also suffered the murders of her husband and Uncle Jack, and the early deaths of two of her children. Various air crashes killed both of her parents, her brother, her sister-in-law, and her nephew John. She never enjoyed flying, but her worry never stopped her from boarding a plane. While giving short shrift to her own monumental suffering, she always showed intense compassion for others. My mother invented tough love, and she could be hard on her children when we didn’t live up to her expectations. But she was also intensely loyal, and we always knew that she would stand fiercely behind us when we came under attack by others. She was our role model for self-discipline, for resilience, and for self-confidence. She deeded to each of her 11 children her love of good stories, her athleticism, her competitive spirit, and the deep curiosity about the world, and the intense interest in people of all backgrounds, which caused her to pepper everyone she met — from cab drivers to presidents — with a relentless cascade of questions about their lives. She also gave us all her love of language and for good storytelling. I credit her for all my virtues. I’m grateful for her generosity in overlooking my faults.
