Cory Watilo

a quick introduction since i see a lot of new faces here after helping with @DataRepublican's site! - california refugee, now happily in tampa, florida 🌴 - silicon valley designer for 15+ years. always been an outsider ideologically, until now... - former full-time RVer - my primary mode of transportation is a golf cart - i have the greatest family in the world - hands in too many projects, but having a ton of fun. life's about the journey, not the destination. - big proponent of standing for what you believe in and pursuing the life of your dreams - biggest pet peeve is gov't waste. woke up when i got my first big boy job at 18 and started paying income tax. (we could solve so many problems if we stopped funding research to find out if monkeys are gay in south america, for example!) - former shitposter (and habitual complainer) on here, but maybe i'll turn this account into something meaningful now! - my life in photos is on IG, same handle

update: it was @Fortinet's ridiculously overly-zealous site blocking. literally blocking one of the largest airline website *literally at an airport* 🤡

American Airlines website being down must be great for business 😂

@bankof_amERICA @kawter recs pls

Looking for recs when I go to Carmel/Monterey/Big Sur👀👀👀

@yakkomajuri @LottieCoxon i don't see posthog but i do see you didn't use typecaast.com for your Claude demo wtf (which i built and @LottieCoxon helped with the logo for!) 😂

it's funny because people keep telling me the railcode website reminds them of posthog's? I certainly still carry some posthog vibes in me but the website was actually inspired by rollercoaster tycoon plus i'm not worthy of being compared to @LottieCoxon and @watilo ever

have you ever owned an RV (or considered buying one)? i've been building RV Envy – slowly over the past few years – to help people find their dream RV. i soft-launched it a couple weeks ago but it appears i'm doing something right. if you're in the market (or have bought an RV before), i'd love your feedback! rvenvy.com

pretty low for JetBlue to crank the cabin to 60 degrees and then walk down the aisle offer blankets for purchase

@billycoover @AmericanAir they're gonna need a lot more terminals for that

@watilo @AmericanAir They are trying to put Ozempic out of business

what's the worst airline and why is it @AmericanAir? the absolute worst part is how they string you along. "go to terminal C. oh wait, now go to B. JK it's gonna be D now!" don't just keep reassigning inbound planes if you don't have a plan. updates every 20 minutes and pushing back incrementally only makes for pissed off passengers. just tell it to us straight that you have no idea what you're going to do instead of making hundreds of people run around Charlotte airport for 5 hours. AA is a joke and every time I fly them I say it'll be the last time. guess the joke's on me.

@Defballmeister @AmericanAir I did find this pretty comical

@AmericanAir @watilo Fix your damn app and notification system.

@david_demand @AmericanAir yeah I'm pretty close to this tbh lol

@watilo @AmericanAir Had 9 gate changes in DFW on a flight home ~2019. Sat in ORD for 8.5 hours waiting for a crew that wasn’t booked. Actual flight was 40 minutes, but could have driven home in ~5 hours. I quit flying commercial.

i have spent nearly half my life listening to the voice of @THErealDVORAK on a nightly basis as i went to bed. literally since i was in college – around 2008 – i started listening to the No Agenda Show. i'd play the podcast in one ear with the other on my pillow with a 30-minute sleep timer and play it over several nights until the next episode came out. my outlook, my ideology, my perspective on life was partly formed by this man's words. thanks for everything, John.

it makes sense to go after markets Waymo is entering so they can't get to a monopoly. my other theories were: 1. HART outsourcing the unprofitable access bus runs via a cheaper method 2. Jane Castor subsidizing lower income areas bc "equity" 3. Waymo having some exclusive with Tampa on downtown/affluent neighborhoods for a while

@watilo hahah I want to believe no but idk Anyway they’re not ahead in the space for once, Waymo is arguably better, so they have some competition unlike SpaceX, Starlink, Tesla fsd, etc

somehow the only places in Tampa where you wouldn’t want to visit lol

@bankof_amERICA bet there was less of a bathroom line tho (there are multiple ways to interpret this and none of them are wrong)

They don’t tell you that met life is in NJ so when I bought cheap World Cup tickets I didn’t realize it was for the wrong event….

@danyay just have it check everything again

help, i'm token-rich and don't know what to do with them all 4 banked resets and i have no more projects to build right now

38 was pretty great but 39 – even hours in – is already pretty awesome. after 5 1/5 years, i left posthog and am *stoked* about what's next. the best is yet to come.

i lowkey hate how much i love this video

@bankof_amERICA +1, all that grass takes up way too much water

Prime spot for a data center

@WhiteHouse i am deceased.

@GavinNewsom it's weird how this is allowed if you're elected but considered theft if you're not

Don’t worry, we’ll be taxing trillionaires even more. Time to cough up after all that California corporate welfare!
