Scott Adams never lost the ability to surprise me with his ideas and observations. He could comment on the same event or situation everyone else was looking at and reveal a new angle or a whole new world. My brain grew every time I heard his voice.
What a loss. What a figure.
Diablo 2 had a terrible code base. It was full of bugs, thousands of them.
The Horadric Cube? One giant if-then-else statement. The post-mortem code review was 20 pages long and scathing.
It's worth Billions today.
Maybe it doesn't matter if vibe-coding produces crap code.
Unfortunately have had multiple family members with ICU stays and emergency surgeries.
The unsolicited advice I give every family going through something similar is to NEVER PAY THE 1st BILL.
This is because many billers send you and insurance a copy a few times just to see if one (or both pay).
Wait till all the bills come in. Anesthesia and labs are usually last. After you get the second or third notice, call your insurance company and ask them what you need to pay and then call the hospitals and negotiate the balance and provide dates the insurance already paid them.
Then you have to go back and do the same to insurance to prove you already met your out of pocket and now the rest is on them.
Absolutely no one is doing their job. They have no incentive to do so. You have to do it for them and be “that person”
It infuriates me that families facing tragedies have to manage all this on top of fighting for their lives and work and managing a family. It’s just cruel.
More energy today.
Soar from racing the kids up and down the street on their scooters.
Workouts have been practically nonexistent, and sleep has been a challenge since the newborn stage.
A good reminder to incorporate some exercise - get creative if you have to.
@soychotic I was dumbfounded recently when a craft coffee spot wasn't yet open (8am) in the heart of midtown NYC.
Like, are you even trying to sell coffee?
