i want to start a job again but there's just nothing cool going on in the job boards i frequent. i rather continue the toil of contract work and youtube/patreon/consulting rather than do something corporate
i disagree, i'm giving my 5yo daughter a thinkpad with a fresh arch installation and a little homemade robot with a local LLM installed on it, that's all she can use to figure out how to set everything up from scratch
i'm not going to give my kids phones or laptops theyll get a portable daylight paper monitor with a pi glued to the back of it if they want to watch paw patrol, they will have to learn how to ssh to their dedicated naked basement debian server, set up the network and use yt-dlp
i wish cigarettes weren't bad for you. it's such a waste of such a cool name for a thing. and the action itself is so cool too. fuck. i can't wait for healthcare to get to the point where cigarette smoking damage to your body can be neutralized / offset by like a pill or smth
it makes me so happy seeing all the youngsters hyping up nvim, brings a tear to my eye, nvim is an artform, a way of life
i hate writing out documentation; i ship too fast. thankfully i'm figuring out how to update documentation automatically with each new feature add/change
sonnet 3.5 is like opus, that's all. no noticeable improvements over opus. that being said, that alone is big.
sometimes i dive deep into a twitter thread to the point where I go "holy fuck, this person exists and believes all this shit" and it feels so doom-ery, only going back to coding problems cleanses my mind again
until the customer has no idea they're talking to an AI, this will never be able to replace actual workers taking an order from the drive through basically it needs to pass an auditory turing-like test
McDonald's drive through is highly optimized and metrics driven, and this indicates a real failure to optimize the process with AI. On the other hand, models are improving every day. AI order taking will be back. x.com/axios/status/1…
nothing worked for putting me to sleep until I figured it out - listening to 3hr interrogation videos, uncut. i fall asleep within the first 10 minutes
@levelsio I already use melatonin 3mg and magnesium, it works but if I’m too stressed/anxious it don’t really help And I also keep waking up at 4AM, my body don’t want to get more than 7h somehow, apparently CBD helps
if you once tweeted something similar to what I just posted, you should link that tweet in the replies, that would be so hilarious haha
“Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche

i had a team member a long time ago that only knew how to push updates to git, and all their commit messages were just the word "update" and nothing else granted, he was one of the best on the team. funny how that works. sometimes i wonder if maybe he did know how to use git but… MoreLess

I still can’t fathom how saying “you should learn git if you want a job writing code” is controversial
i don't think people understand how easy it is to just make things you can literally think of some process that you do throughout the day, whether it be talking about something you're passionate about or walking outside or just dicking around on your computer, and you can find a… MoreLess
i don't think people understand how easy it is to just make things you can literally think of some process that you do throughout the day, whether it be talking about something you're passionate about or walking outside or just dicking around on your computer, and you can find a way to monetize it effectively in millions of different ways. and yet people don't do that because of some sort of limbic friction that they experience, or they're stuck because they think that their time is better spent doing non-action items such as watching another billionaire guru explain to them why they need to take five cold showers a day
i have yet to have a meeting that couldn't have been solved through a DM back-and-forth (which i can then reference afterwards to make sure i get everything word-for-word, literally) i dont see any benefits of having meetings other than the illusion of productivity
A quick call can turn into a long fall from productivity. 😆

ok but I seriously don’t know one person who will be voting for Biden (without the “he’s the lesser of two evils!” argument). even those who hate Trump with all their being - they’re not voting this election, they tell me
easiest way to see if someone is in the same plane is to tell them "you can just do things". if they argue no and give you their reasonings as to why, they're not on the same plane i literally cannot think of one thing that i "can't do" it just takes prep + plan + execute
it really feels like i'm in a double world. most people don't live in the same plane of existence as me. like, most of the people around me in ottawa. it's just wild to know what's coming down the pipe and for everyone around me to not believe me
all the people in the comments saying "bro u just have to xyz" or "it basically never breaks for me" don't understand end users at all and only think with their nerd brains, not general consumer brains my mom has been using a macbook for 10+ years. the same one. never fucked up
I used Linux for 10ish years. Up until 2023 Your whole system shouldn't break on automatic updates Your WiFi and Bluetooth should just work People aren't gonna use it until these things are fixed
it's insane to me that openai doesn't train their models to be experts in... their own openai api documentation. it should know everything about every single part of openai, but it... doesn't so disappointing
HUGE OPEN AI NEWS THIS MORNING! i heard from a top secret source (a random tweet in my for you page) that june 6, today, openai will release something big
he's the guy that theorizes that whatever you believe will happen after your death will happen (atheists will cease to exist, Christians will go to heaven/hell, Muslims will be greeted by 72 virgins... yeah, that too) - basically his argument is that your core most true beliefs c… MoreLess
he's the guy that theorizes that whatever you believe will happen after your death will happen (atheists will cease to exist, Christians will go to heaven/hell, Muslims will be greeted by 72 virgins... yeah, that too) - basically his argument is that your core most true beliefs create the next reality for you after death; you write your own story, basically and apparently his theories have a bunch of proof to back up his claims he's based but nothing world-altering has come out of him. maybe we'll read his theories in a couple hundred years like we read thoreau today

damn, i lost so much respect for all these actors, whether they meant the words they were reading from a script or not. no amount of money would make me be this cringe
2015 called and wants its cringe back.
first time i'm seeing this in chatgpt. ive been using gpt-4o for free ever since it released, havent paid subscription for it (I use API mostly anyway), but today I see this new gpt model coming soon? and they're just introducing these wording/ui changes?

ok time to make my own OBS from scratch I've had it with the global hotkeys randomly not registering after like 10 minutes
I’m pretty sure this company and all its members are all just an elaborate troll and soon they’ll release a “nah, we’re just fucking with you guys! hahaha, got ya!” blog detailing the entire process of creating this satire piece and how it speaks to Silicon Valley culture
