I’m just gonna say it: I saw a brindle tripod chihuahua

Love it when our nation’s defense contractors all spend their Friday nights subtweeting each other about killing everyone in the world

ahhhh

So what will they do? They will blindly feed your review comments straight to their agentic coding model because that's the only thing they know how to do.

By doing so the vibe coder has put the maintainer in the weird position where the maintainer is doing agentic coding through a shitty UX

People are drinking less than ever.

More people are falling into AI psychosis than ever.

Is this how you people are choosing to descend into insanity in your sobriety, society?

Let’s put down the OpenClaws and get back to our White Claws. You all can’t be trusted with cognition.

BIG FAT PSA: NVIDIA ARE DROPPING SUPPORT FOR THE NVIDIA 1000 SERIES AND LOWER WHEN 590 DRIVERS MOVE TO PRODUCTION. WE WILL -NOT- BE SUPPORTING OLDER DRIVERS. THIS MEANS NOBARA WILL NOT PROVIDE OLDER DRIVERS FOR 1000 SERIES CARDS OR LOWER WHEN THE 590 DRIVERS BECOME PRODUCTION BRANCH. I REPEAT, THOSE CARDS WILL NOT BE SUPPORTED. THIS IS SLATED TO HAPPEN VERY SOON. BETA AND NEW FEATURE BRANCHES ARE ALREADY AT 590: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/.

Honestly, spending hundreds of dollars on buying a brand new gaming rig and deliberately avoiding NVidia in the rig just to use my favorite free of cost Linux distro is telling of my character.

I just realized the Pixar hit film Soul is just a remake of the Bill Cosby hit film Ghost Dad

On one hand, LLM-assisted coding is deeply stupid.

On the other hand, it’s forcing people to catch up with the rest of us on things like

“Maybe you should have a spec”
“Maybe you should have tests”
“Maybe what matters is what customers want”
“Maybe boilerplate isn’t where the business value is”

all these people making "i've moved on from coding" posts are so fucking lame

i'm thinking about code as much if not more than ever

I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with me.

I demonstrate this ethos on airplanes. Looking forward to being your seatmate!

We work in such an unserious industry that we take sentence fragments on short form media and expand them into breathless narratives about our impending doom and treat people like Steve Yegge as authority figures.

You know your ass is getting disbarred if you acted like this in Law, yeah?

Made it 3 days! The Lock Screen crashed and the workaround is to make the Lock Screen keyboard shortcut running while locked so you can restart it.

Then Steam died, and after that apps had trouble staying open for more than 5 minutes.

But I riced the FUCK out of my dotfiles jn that time.

Every time a puppy goes to heaven an angel becomes a DJ

For the love of god, Montresor!

Tried Niri again, this time with DMS.

Lasted a whole two hours before switching back to Gnome. Longest yet!

When you speculate “things are bad and I don’t know what happens next so I guess we’re all gonna die” you’re not taking into account the worst case scenario: what if we do go on, and continue to survive in the mess that surrounds us? What if cascading generations of new life do too, forever?

just imagining this "tools make discovery" frame applied to historic scientific achievements

"Bread discovers miracle mold"
"Kite finds lightning is actually electricity"

“Did you make any New Year’s resolutions?”

Nah man I don’t use the waterfall model to plan my person life.

The only difference between ‘tropical paradise’ and ‘rural backwoods hellhole’ is the proximity to an ocean.

A post on GitHub expressing how parasitic LLM coding agents have hollowed out their business model

Honestly I think it would be so fucking funny if Tailwind pulled a left-pad and all the LLM-assisted code people are writing stopped rendering correctly.

The thing you need to understand here is that Boris is a god damn manager and shouldn’t be writing code to begin with.

LLMs are a seductive tool for the people at the top of the hierarchy because it lets them do little drive-by PRs to feel relevant. This is why CTOs push for them.

“We don’t have a contest culture”. Ok buddy, sure, but you:

- only hire “top talent”
- reward individuals, not teams
- fire low performers
- have a Wins channel where you “celebrate” individuals
- laser focus on KPIs/OKRs
- don’t hire juniors
- do RIFs vs retraining

Guess what! Contest cultures!

I wanted MOVE FAST BREAK THINGS as knuckle tattoos (no I didn’t count letters v. fingers, that’s moving fast for you) so when the tattoo artist DID run out of knuckles in true MFBT fashion the guy sitting next to me got a BREAK THINGS forehead tattoo for free.

I used to think that success as an adult would be outwardly signaled with something like a sports car but as I get older I realize it’s more having an unsuccessful sushi place in a strip mall that’s obviously being used to launder money.

My response to anything over the next two weeks

It’s happening and it’s *very* consensual

these ARE made
they should ALWAYS be made
