@aviflombaum I agree!

@EyalToledano @usehamster @TaskmasterAI I'd like to get in on this

we've unlocked for ai task management what reasoning unlocked for LLMs the plan quality is orders of magnitude better than anything i've ever seen before. it's in a completely different league and i'm in shock tbh parsing prds now auto-generates the perfect breakdown of tasks and subtasks. not too shallow (ai decides how to build), not too deep (over engineered), but exactly right for execution it just keeps expanding until the scope is fully covered. no manual tweaking. it's reasoning applied to task generation orchestrate with taskmaster using any AI IDE or bg agent dm if you wanna try it!

@aviflombaum I told my mom to buy Bitcoin when it was $17k but she bought Bitcoin Cash instead “because it was cheaper”.

Me to my parents after buying $BTC at $120,000

@aviflombaum @RaghavMadhukar @_nicolealonso Those were good times

@RaghavMadhukar @_nicolealonso That’s just off the top of my head. Here’s a bonus one: Break into gramercy park. It’s just a small fence. Simple step ladder will do.

as someone who hated NYC for a while after moving here, one of the things I've grown to love immensely is the access to top-notch experiences any night of the week: - concerts - live tv tapings - comedy shows - broadway shows - world-class restaurants

@chrismunns Dooooo iiiiiiiitttt! 😂

I can’t tweet certain things because people at certain companies would come for me and try to end my professional career(they’ve tried)… but damn if I could say the things I wish I could say…..

@aviflombaum For someone like me who has no experience with RoR it's hard to make the mental jump that a stack that has been around for two decades and currently has a fraction of the usage in the market is an obviously better choice. Not being a hater! Just sharing my own hesitation.

@aviflombaum There must be some sort of valid reason as to why we got here? Like, there's no debating that fullstack JS/TS has massively broader adoption currently than RoR right?

I've been helping a friend with his company's code/app. It's fullstack JS/TS. It's multiple repos/apps to create the final user experience, both the webgui and their partner API. I think their team is great and their code and architecture is probably representative, for the most part, of most products built in fullstack JS/TS. I can work on it, it took a bit to get setup locally and somethings are TS and others just JS, some are express and others Next, but I can handle the context switching. So like yes it works. I would never recommend they rebuild from scratch. That being said, I feel for them because I just cannot understand why you would choose this architecture. It is so needlessly complex. It just is. Full stop. I've seen massive @rails monoliths and I've seen SOA @rails / @rubylangorg applications. I've seen the good ones, the bad ones, the legacy ones. All of them are easier to understand and work with than this stack. I promise. Not even by a little. By a lot. By a huge amount of a lot. The amount of yakshaving problems they have to deal with (like logging, error handling, database migrations, security - like basic stuff), in addition to the just like package/version mismatches between the different codebases is insane. And this problem will only compound as they add more to it. I just don't understand how we got here. Just why? I also imagine that most devs are working in this environment and just think "this is how it is." Sort of like how most devs working in Java, PHP, etc (I was one of them btw) before @rails and @rubylangorg thought "well, I guess this is my job." It is not. There are just so many better patterns/stacks/architecture/frameworks to use. Not just @rails. But this obsession with end to end JS/TS and Next/React is absurd. ABSURD.

@daltonc Congrats to you and Bryan! Cool to hear you’re both going strong together

Looks like Trump and Elon are fucking this up pretty massively.

@daltonc Twitter

If you think of Instacart as a do-over of Webvan, what other companies are ripe for a do-over?

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.) To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

@ersadwork @alignui Any plans for a kanban board?

Templates section is cooking 👀 w / @alignui

@ersadwork amazing work on @alignui. Any plans for a kanban board design to be included at some point?

@srcasm Try the Landmark Forum :)

I talk to my therapist weekly or every other week for 45 minutes but is there room for a therapy day? Do people do that? Sometimes 45 minutes isn’t enough time to unpack it all and just lean into the feelings.

The one thing I still don’t understand with this OpenAI craziness is… why doesn’t @sama believe in capital letters?

@aviflombaum @SaraJChipps Would always be down for some idea bouncing.

I'm looking for a collaborator on some of my projects, if not more. I'd like to not work alone and think I work better with a person to bounce things off. If you're a designer or a developer and are interested in building some indie stuff, for profit and for fun, get in touch.

Is this thing still on?

@Hythacg I want the book too! I’ve always wanted to do something similar but for gargoyles and similar details.

After a year of traveling the USA to document historic skyscrapers through high-res drone photography, here are my favorite Art Deco Buildings🧵

@callmehouck Threads. Looking forward to the threads that get added after today's fiasco!
