what's something u always assumed was mandatory in life, until u met someone who just didn't do it ??

Danish theoretical physicist Niels Bohr's personal diary, examined after his death, contains this entry about his meeting with Anandamayi Ma: “Met an Indian holy woman today. She asked me to explain quantum superposition. I did the observer effect, wave-particle duality, and the measurement problem. When I finished, she smiled and said, "So, your science has finally discovered what we've known for 5,000 years. Consciousness collapses possibility into actuality. The observer creates the observed. You are the universe observing itself." Then she laughed. I couldn't speak. How did an uneducated village woman articulate in 30 seconds, what took me 30 years to understand?

My wife just asked me if I'm "done working" because her sister wants to FaceTime. I said, "Yeah, the upgrade finished. Everything's stable now." I haven't looked at a single work system all day. I've been playing Elden Ring for 4 hours. But I made sure to leave my laptop open on my desk with a terminal window visible. Just black screen with green text scrolling. Looks very official. It's actually just running ping google on repeat. But to anyone who glances in, it looks like I'm monitoring something critical. We got on FaceTime with her sister. She asked what I was working on today. I said, "Just some backend infrastructure maintenance. Nothing exciting." She said, "You work too hard." I nodded solemnly. "Someone's gotta keep the lights on." My wife squeezed my hand. She thinks I'm dedicated. The truth? I haven't done a single work-related thing since Thursday afternoon. But the appearance of work is more important than the work itself. And the best part about IT? Nobody actually knows what you're doing, so they just assume you're doing something important. Legacy building isn't about what you accomplish. It's about what people think you accomplish.

Competent people either want total authority, or for other highly competent people to have total authority. Any situation where that falls apart will make them absolutely freak out.

@Lovandfear Yep, and it still hits hard, especially when you are young...

After you get married, you’re going to meet ‘better’ people than your spouse. You’re going to meet more good-looking people; kinder and more romantic people; more intelligent and funny people. You will meet people who have in abundance what your partner lacks. The mushy and romanticized idea that your partner will be everything to you, and will satisfy all your needs and wants is idolatry. Contentment in marriage is a virtue not often spoken about. You must wake up every day appreciating everything your partner is to you, everything they have, their beauty and the things that made you marry them because if you focus on everything they don’t do well, you’ll always meet better people. Protect your heart! See their best part, and always remember that your commitment to marry is more of a duty than it is of mushy feelings. You have to stay committed even on the days you feel your spouse is no longer the best fit for you… -Buchi

@mitsuhiko Always tell vscode Copilot is pretty good for 10$/mo. Reached the limit only once running claude sonnet in agent mode non-stop for a month, found that mode too chaotic and switched back to simple “Ask” mode. Fully satisfied for 2 years at that point…

If you are using the Sonnet or Opus 4.5 for coding, but you are not using Claude Code, I would be curious what you use instead and why (eg: amp, Cursor, …)

People are scared to form a taste. Taste requires confidence. Confidence doesn’t come with liquidity.

@F1stzz @Stalker2News ok, so I wasn't aware that Honta's face model was a unique one as you say...

The New Storyline coming Tomorrow is around 5 hours long. In the picture, you can see one of the new (and my favourite) characters from the add-on. I won't reveal his name, but his story is very cool. Thanks to GSC for allowing this *le exclusive* look.

In 2025, you cannot take a photo on your iPhone without removing 5 layers of AI-edited post-processing, but on the other hand you can use the touchpad on your mac to weigh cocaine. You win some, you lose some.

@KevinNaughtonJr Walks. Showers. Drives. Massage chairs. Naps. Anything to divert your conscious mind and let your subconscious clear out the cruft that has been blinding you. It doesn’t work every time, but the hit rate is really good.

False. The change only seems radical because the new tools offer a potentially significant productivity boost. (Perhaps 20% when the dust settles.) This is not new. We’ve seen similar boosts many times over the last eight decades. The shifts from binary to assembler to G1 compilers (eg Fortran) to G2 (eg C) to G3 (VMs like Java) to G4 (eg Python). Radical change was predicted for each. FUD over programming jobs was rampant. Yet two things remained constant: * The ever increasing demand for programmers. * The principles of software engineering.
