You can find me browsing the lego aisle.
I help folks build chips for Amazon, and used make computer deliver packages for Amazon.
All opinions are my own.

@geerlingguy @microcenter I'll be there !!! Excited MC is finally here

For all the flaws of amazon writing process, at least it forced a person to think at least once. Now it feels like I'm in kindergarten reading picture books with all this AI. No one can digest words anymore and want pictures everywhere.

@typesfast Are those railings for the robots more efficient/cheaper? Amazon is known for their kiva system but we do optimize for retiting existing warehouse as well so the system is built support cement floors.

@qbking77 Such a good phone, folks should bring back that soft touch metal. Sad that the bootloop issue soured the experience of using it for a long time.

Installing the mini iso of nixos was a tedious part of getting a new node up. Gave kiro a ssh conn to the boot iso, context of the install guide, finished it up no issues . Idk what it means to learn a tool/platform anymore. Is everything just context management now?

@chamath Started in 2019, they did see this coming, and this was before the accelerated compute demands

@verge I know the verge has daily free stories, they should make it default that all open source articles should be free, ain't that the fair way to make what they're reporting on better.

@texasrunnerDFW @ErnestWongBWM HEB is the best! That's well run store.

@thdxr amazon is good example of this, even with Kuiper, but it does come with a responsibility of running for-profit business, if an experiment fails, is not profitable how do responsibly unwind it and the people involved in it. I don't think amazon has been the best at that.

@xdadevelopers This article doesn't get what it means to maintain, and distribute a distro. Pkgs can have rules can config that can contradict each other, like a logrotate rule can negate a different pkg's one. Immutable distro provide a way for the maintainer to release with confidence as well

@tsoding Who is Bryan Cantrill?

@melbourneandrew @chamath I see, the collaborative approach to defining a spec/requirement, can be combo-ed with any IDE. The Zed editor did start out with an emphasis on multiplayer editing. Would be interesting if a standard like a2a(https://t.co/J3kyonPlrP) is adopted for planning mechanisms as well.

@quantam_lock @GreenAnole2 @jimcramer I work for amzn, so I forgo the notion of the caring my palm information is with amzn, when they already know my ssn. It was such cool technology, and of the actual "IoT" solutions that was actually useful in a convenience and privacy perspective. Sad to see it go.

@Only1Tommo96 I was young when this squad was around, I always blamed the attack for not getting the goals we needed, but we were not a cohesive unit at the back then. I think Giroud would shine in this squad with his aerial threat, and his hold up play.

@saradietschy I'm moving to Austin this weekend, I experienced the 2022 freeze, that took down power due to tree tipping over from the freeze, I hope that doesn't happen again.

[Vasudevan Perumal @Vasu_perumal]

@damianplayer Ain't this what kiro from AWS does? The whole spec driven development concept.

[Vasudevan Perumal @Vasu_perumal]

@JoePostingg We had a network outage watchdog similar to the one in the trailer, on kiosks in a warehouse. It's hilarious how many people try to reboot only to see it again. Wanna see how that plays out in the show.

@NotionHQ product feedback. It's Sunday, when I tag a reminder to remind me on Tuesday, default to the next Tuesday, I shouldn't required to type 'next tuesday'. When would anyone want to set a reminder in the past?

@FarandPaulJr I guess that's what the Grand Seiko dials do best.
