Assemblers were faster at writing binary than humans were.

Compilers were faster at writing assembly than humans were.

AIs are faster at writing compiled languages then humans are.

Deal with it. There's still plenty left for you to do.

@jpthor For this, I've become a big fan of https://t.co/ZnxI7USc3O

combined with https://t.co/X3hyBWu5rI

You spend much more time in planning and architecture modes, writing artifacts that survive context compacts.

It helps prevent that last 10%.

@trashh_dev I've wrestled and defeated many demons. Haribo remains undefeated. I go back. Every time.

@joelcomm I used to be hopelessly addicted to red bulls and energy drinks in general. The diet forms are no better.

Can't believe how much i trashed my body.

Eventually switched to decaf coffee. Every now and then i'll sneak some espresso or caffeinated coffee.

@megaflexa @terra_money @StationWallet Normally I leave rude messages like yours on read, but to be clear:

- I did not join TFL until after the depeg
- No, I don't know where your life savings are
- Google where Do is

The reason to be a single-issue voter on crypto is not to 'pump your bags'. It's b/c crypto is key to reducing government power of all types. Voting for a pro-crypto candidate is the most anti-authoritarian political act you can do without risking prison.

🫡 It was an absolute honor to serve with you, sir.

We've been through alot of ups and downs together, from passionate LUNAtics to TFL employees fighting for decentralized money and bringing value to our fellow community members.

The PR has been tough, but I know in my heart that i was surrounded by (and preceded by) the best engineers and product developers in the industry who truly cared about what they were building and the people who used it.

Thank you for your kind words, and for your friendship.
If I had to do it all over again, I would do it the exact same way.

@Galactic_Mining @vladjdk gm sir. mr. vlad is no longer working on the enterprise team.

With that said, rest assured, the remaining enterprise team is hard at work on the issue and should have a migration in the coming days.

I think I just discovered the silver bullet to solving (most) React hydration error issues 👇

feels a bit illegal though 😂 and might be prone to layout shifts?
