@corsaren codex --yolo does feel more fun

honestly kind of wild how many ads i get from Anthropic telling me to turn on a setting that they call “dangerously-skip-permissions”

@NLi10 @stillreal2us the 2001 the following year threw me off

@patrickleet @stillreal2us Oh we were obsessed with naming things 2000 in the late 80s

Someone told me that Harry Potter is supposed to take place between 1991 and 1998 which is ridiculous because not once in seven books does a single character say, “Man, Shawn Michaels is having one hell of a run huh?”

@stillreal2us apparently this is wrong though my chevy silverado 1500 is not from 1500

@stillreal2us I think it’s later given he buys a nimbus 2000 in the first book, and the Malfoy gets the nimbus 2001 in the second book. So seems like 2000-2007

I’ve used @Lemonade_Inc for renters insurance since 2017 Last year I switched to in for two cars as well and was quoted $379/m I started the policy in Feb Here is what I’ve been charged: Feb - $384 March - $379 April - $427 May/june/july - $433 August - $539 Sept/oct/nov/dec - $534 December again a few days later $114 January - $692 Feb - $791 March - $786 April - $786 May - $887 According to their customer service the price increased because location services were not enabled on my phone for the app, however they were enabled the entire time. So they have overcharged me by thousands because their app doesn’t work right. I tried to speak to customer service about this but they refuse to acknowledge this. So if you need insurance most definitely don’t use Lemonade.

@DrewVento It’s not comparable cause the AI and you both speak English and can understand each other

You need to treat AI like an offshore team in India. You have to be as specific as you can be to them to make sure they don’t do stupid shit. You have to review everything to make sure it’s right. Claude is pretty much Windy Street Consulting based out of India

@justtheone_1 Stone cold, but it’s a trap. Stunner!

Who stands up for Randy to sit?

@stillreal2us So he should have been talking about stone cold

How do you feel about the billions of bees that are killed producing almond milk? Or the billions moles, insects, and and other small mammals that are ground up in tillers in the name of plant agriculture. Or that clearing acres for monocrop plant agriculture that kills the top soil, and displaces all of the animals that lived there, killing many, and then attracting many to the new food source that was created and hunting, trapping, and poisoning all the animals that then want to eat it? How do you feel that the least death per calorie is from eating large ruminants and that plant agriculture causes more death per calorie (of course some argue deaths of insects don’t matter and shouldn’t count towards this metric cause including that number in the many of billions really skews it)? What about the fact that 2/3 of the earths agricultural land is unsuitable for plant agriculture but can be used to raise livestock? What about the fact that putting cows on land restores it when managed well with regenerative practices and sequesters carbon back into the soil? The problem is not the cow, it’s the how. Cows are raised eating grass and bought by factory farms. Factory farms are unnecessary and getting rid of them would not reduce the number of cows. And the vast majority of plants livestock eat are what we consider waste products. And that’s before we even talk about nutrition and all of essential nutrients missing from a plant based diet such as the most basic things like complete proteins containing all EAAs. That said death is inevitable. There is blood on all of our hands. The best thing we can do is buy from local farmers who use regenerative agriculture practices and accept our responsibility as stewards of the land. We should be pushing back against industrial feed lots just as much as industrial monocrop plant agriculture.

I really don't want to be vegan. Because actually I have no problem with killing animals for food - it's just the way of the world. I don't even really mind torturing animals for food - as long as they're low cognition (fish, insects, etc) However - I really don't want to participate in the active (often life long) torture of high cognition animals like pigs. Chickens are pretty dumb, but I'm not down with stuffing them into small cages their whole lives to peck at each other. Not ok with dairy cow-calf separation. And the more you look into it, the more you realize that humane sources of meat, dairy, and eggs are VERY hard to come by. Buying the more expensive brand at the grocery store does not imply torture free. If you're eating bacon, an egg, cheese from a random restaurant - you are participating and enabling animal torture. These labels "vegan", "vegetarian", "pescatarian" don't work for me. A vegetarian who eats dairy and eggs still participates in torture. I would lustfully eat a steak that had a good life, or an egg from a non-factory farm. For all the daily political bullshit that happens - the torture of billions of animals is so rarely discussed.

@EncryptedEarth @mersomas Two o’s and two p’s is poop 💩

@tpschmidt_ Don’t need a NAT gateway with ipv6

AWS tries to hide pricing wherever possible, has no spend cap, and charges an absurd tax to talk to the internet via NAT Gateway. And yet, some parts of their billing setup are genuinely great! Disclaimer: Highly opinionated things below. The good things first 💪

Founders finding out building a startup is 90% sales and marketing:

A lot of people claim to understand CQRS/ES but then use aggregate events as domain events

@catalinmpit @OpenPanelDev I got work on progress for this! Oidc support, a terraform provider, and a cross plane provider!

I don’t think @OpenPanelDev gets the attention it deserves. It’s an open-source, self-hostable web and product analytics platform. You can think of it as an open-source alternative to Mixpanel, but with the simplicity of Plausible and none of the Google Analytics bs. github.com/Openpanel-dev/…

@yacineMTB @elihickox Writing backend graphql APIs ❌ Using Mutations (anti-pattern imo)❌ Graphql for queries and subscriptions to make declarative real time front ends ✅ Autogenerating graphql APIs in front of read model database with hasura ✅

Graphql is genuinely the most retarded idea ever. There used to be an entire career around graphql Honestly the best part about automating programmers is that I don't have to hire people, which means that I don't have to tolerate bad engineering decisions

@TFTC21 I was living in devil town. I didn’t know it was devil town. Oh lord, it really brings me down about the devil town. All my friends were vampires. I didn’t know they were vampires. Turns out I was a vampire myself, in the devil town. open.spotify.com/track/4eJ6pWef…

@nikitabier A friend from Canada visited Texas, so my buddy gave her a gun and a puppy and a ride in a pick up truck

Next week I’m headed to Tokyo to meet with the X Japan team. What is the most American thing I can bring them?

@the_smart_ape They steal the worlds code, the world steals theirs back. Seems fair.

@lucasmeijer Git kb with sparse checkout so old docs fade away

I'm slowly migrating from "its a good idea to have lots of .md files for plans/bugs/tasks in the repo" to "yeah lets not do that at all".
