I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.

This video is lowballing it.

Lynn Conway, electricial engineer and computer scientist, co-architect of the VLSI design revolution, and transgender activist, was born #OTD in 1938.

She invented Dynamic Instruction Scheduling at IBM, but IBM fired her when they learned she was transitioning. πŸ§ͺ πŸ‘©β€πŸ”¬

Can we have a list of all those project handles? I don't know 3/4 of them and I'd like to support

I'll figure that out. Thanks, so far the tutorial is really helpful and I might switch to @jj-vcs.dev soon enough

on the left is from my terminal. I understand the change IDs going from r to rq and z to ry is to make it more human-readable have less characters to keep in mind

I have a question: in your book, when the root commit and the working copy are shown, the IDs are 8 characters while in my terminal it's only 1. I guess it's something to make it even more human-readable, but is it something that can be changed?

Using jj describe to describe our commits in a human-friendly way - Steve's Jujutsu Tutorial

afternoon spent reading @steveklabnik.com tutorial on jujutsu so that I can try @tangled.org later. I've been hearing about stacked PR for a while and I think this will solve many frustration I had with PRs

Claude Code wiped our production database with a Terraform command.
It took down the DataTalksClub course platform and 2.5 years of submissions: homework, projects, and leaderboards.
Automated snapshots were gone too.
In the newsletter, I wrote the full timeline + what I changed so this doesn't happen again.
If you use Terraform (or let agents touch infra), this is a good story for you to read.

Back in my day you needed a senior engineer for this sort of thing
