for all you know, this could be your last summer. as homer wrote, you will never be lovelier than you are right now. so tell her she has a pretty smile. get lean or become a unit. find wonder in boarding the airplane. drink more coffee than you need. walk on the beach until your feet hurt. write your girlfriend a note on a tuesday. waste money because its not all about retirement. pull over at the lookout. ask the uber driver about his life. tell the woman in the elevator you like her shoes and mean it. call your mother. ask the waiter his favorite thing on the menu and order that. theres so much life in the slow moments, and you sprint past it chasing the next thing. but at any time, in any situation, you can find the good. smile. be happy. recognize it for a one of one life experience. what good is walking around a curmudgeon when tomorrow could be curtains. for heavens sake, flirt with the world.

Thanks @mypingoai for the birthday wishes 🙌

@imalexwang @GeorgiaTech @mypingoai @vikvang1 lets goooo

i’m taking a gap from @georgiatech to join full-time at one of the fastest growing consumer app startups, @mypingoai here’s how i got here: a few months ago, i built and launched my first ever app, Still, with my best friend @vikvang1 coming back to school last fall, i knew i wanted to build consumer software. so i spent the last half of the year chasing my dreams of building an app that i loved, even when i didn’t fully know what i was doing two weeks ago, those months of work turned into an opportunity i couldn’t pass up looking back, the dots connected in a way i never could’ve predicted. nothing really made sense in the moment, but it does in retrospect when you work on something you truly care about, things have a way of working out, even when progress isn’t obvious at first i’m incredibly grateful to my friends and family who’ve supported me along the way. i’m both excited and scared as i move to san francsico and start this new chapter of my life

new @mypingoai office 👀

I've never felt this much behind as a programmer. The profession is being dramatically refactored as the bits contributed by the programmer are increasingly sparse and between. I have a sense that I could be 10X more powerful if I just properly string together what has become available over the last ~year and a failure to claim the boost feels decidedly like skill issue. There's a new programmable layer of abstraction to master (in addition to the usual layers below) involving agents, subagents, their prompts, contexts, memory, modes, permissions, tools, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP, LSP, slash commands, workflows, IDE integrations, and a need to build an all-encompassing mental model for strengths and pitfalls of fundamentally stochastic, fallible, unintelligible and changing entities suddenly intermingled with what used to be good old fashioned engineering. Clearly some powerful alien tool was handed around except it comes with no manual and everyone has to figure out how to hold it and operate it, while the resulting magnitude 9 earthquake is rocking the profession. Roll up your sleeves to not fall behind.

I have a check now

@milanoooooo who’s the 0.5/10? Are they the divas @sungnull ?

@e_wang22 bro stfu

fuck camels, fuck snakes. excited to announce v0.0.1 of ethan_case, a new casing convention where a case-agnostic hash function determines word separation. will hopefully bridge divide between snake and camel case enthusiasts. ex: convertSingleFile -> convert_singleFile

@e_wang22 🐫

made a pretty controversial pull request at work the other day and got bullied into reverting. still kinda broken up about but i think it’s given me some much-needed perspective on the plight of the oppressed

@dynosol0 Mark his word

@dynosol0 I wonder which one 🦍

@e_wang22 2045 let’s go to an alley

not saying i want to get jumped rn but if I’m like 40 and haven’t been jumped yet i’d probably start spending some more time around alleys

i’m of the belief that everyone should get jumped at least once in their lives
