turbopuffer crossed $100M run-rate in March. 19mo after $1M. Profitable & <$1M raised. Cursor・Anthropic・Notion・Cognition・Harvey・Bridgewater・Ramp・Linear・Legora・Superhuman・Atlassian・Granola We’d be nowhere without them. We work like hell to exceed their expectations.

@JesseKazam Agreed. And the 20% XP bonus for Unheard also feels cringe and desperate.

This is unbelievably cringe. I bet they would make wayyyy more money just opening this up to EVERYONE and letting people buy the cosmetics they want instead of trying to convince a few more people to buy unheard. Asking people to spend more money to gain the ability to spend more money on cosmetics is crazy.

@wbuxtonofficial @tomcorvid It’s actually a misunderstanding that fossil fuels are running out. Proven reserves still give us around 50 years of oil at current rates, and that figure hasn’t shrunk over time because we keep discovering more.

11 years of building and shipping at @Shopify. Incredibly grateful to work at such an amazing company with such incredible people. As energized and excited today as I was day one. Props to my son and wife for the cute hand drawn card.

@flyosity I’ve always thought that Shopify’s hiring at the time was sometimes too rigid. A lot of good talent slipped through the cracks.

Shopify did all this hype in hiring and then just laysoff a handful of folk. Wild.

@flyosity I’m curious: when was this? When I was at Shopify I would’ve jumped at the opportunity of hiring you. I left in 2021 though.

@rileyj_s bunch of years ago I got to final round interview with Shopify but they didn't like how I designed a hypothetical one-button alarm clock in a live Figma exercise

@_one334 I can imagine. And I also only supercharge a handful of times per year. Home charging at $0.039 per kWh is the real game changer. Also, my amounts are in Canadian Dollar. So that’s even cheaper than USD 😬

@nilo California supercharging is significantly more expensive.

Out of curiosity I plugged my home electricity rates in the Tesla app. I have a “ultra-low overnight” plan from my provider, which targets EV owners. I can’t believe how little I spent on driving that car. (I drive ~12,000km per year, and use very little Superchargers)

@AdamWhitcroft Absolutely, the E30 is the GOAT BMW. But they were doing so well until the generation of the F80 M3. It's sad how much they've fallen off design wise.

@AirwingMarine Yep, have loaded into Customs late a few times now since the changes. Usually 1-3 minutes after the raid start.

Is anyone in Tarkov loading into raids late where your loading in later than your actual que time. An example would be loading into factory at 17 minutes, but you were only in que for 1.5 minutes. This would mean Tarkov is queuing people into raids that have already started. If you have, clips would go a long way....

@tobi I was literally thinking yesterday that with the advent of vibecoding there must be better, more intuitive, open source telemetry software coming soon. Good stuff.

Turns out, you can vibecode your own motorsport telemetry tools instead of waiting for mac ports

@_one334 Oh wow, did you import the E87 116i? I always loved that generation of BMW.

@nilo You've got a good list. Here are mine in reverse chronological order. E90 328i 6spd E87 116i, bare chassis restoration and N52 swap (in progress) 6spd of course 2007 Honda Civic with 475k km and a 5spd :) No turbos yet. I actually think all 3 are equally good first cars.

In between I owned these: A 2013 BMW 118d M-Sport (F20): only owned it for 9 months before I decided to move continents. A 2017 Ford Focus RS: great daily you can also take to the track. A 2019 Audi RS 3 LMS TCR: when track cars weren’t good enough anymore. Not street legal.
