Maybe 2022 will be the year I try write down some of my thoughts on various things that might potentially be useful to someone else.

@glenathan @bcantrill The Oxide and Friends episode on this goes into more detail on some of the concerns around the alternative options, including postgres. Would definitely recommend. (It wasn't just about upgrades)

@chhopsky The PagerDuty / OpsGenie TTS voice would also be low-key triggering😭😭😭

[Lisa Adams @real_lisa_adams]

Help me, I have developed empathy for my GPT & now start all prompts with "I am really sorry to bother you again, I hope you are well".

[Patrick McKenzie @patio11]

A random thing that will probably help someone out eventually:

Should you ever have the occasion to e.g. sell a company or have your startup equity become liquid, call your bank (or chat up a new bank) *in advance*, and ask "If I were to bring in new money, what's your offer?"

@IanColdwater Honestly, devastating news. I'm sorry for your loss. ❤️

lol some MAGA account just exposed the ginger-bearded guy whining about welfare queens and high taxes as a conservative industry plant, astroturfed into existence by all the Daily Wire freaks and some right-wing social media promoter. Dan Bongino then confirms it

[alana. @alanaauston]

um? I assumed those commercials used water because they couldn’t show blood but it’s really because no one…thought to test actual blood?

[Gritty is the Way @Gritty20202]

Just a reminder that there are better options than bailouts.

[David R. MacIver @DRMacIver]

The modern condition is mostly trying to do things on your own that people have historically achieved with a large support network and wondering why you're tired all the time.

[Richard D. Bartlett @RichDecibels]

generally I recommend a path of self compassion but if you ever have the impulse to write something and then you think "oh someone else had already written about this" do me a favour and tell that voice to fuck right off

[Brianna Wu @BriannaWu]

The strongest argument I’ve ever seen for communism is letting landlords on TikTok.

The person who was once the most powerful man in the world, and who is trying to be so again, announced he plans to enact a transgender genocide if he does so. Check you trans friends, and know that we need you to not just be caring, but stand and fight alongside us.

@_nyancrimew Like why would it be bad to be a tenderqueer... I don't understand them

[bailey? 🏳️‍🌈 🇿🇦 @bailey_nyaa]

@FemboyWulf @_nyancrimew @i2talics Don't mind the shitposts! Learning any programming language is a great start, and a lot of learnings are easy to transfer across languages.

[bailey? 🏳️‍🌈 🇿🇦 @bailey_nyaa]

@egecavusoglu_ @rakyll I think having documentation helps with onboarding and firefighting too, and I'm pretty sure most folks would consider it part of owning a mature important service. Documentation also takes many forms. The more knowledge you can link people to, not having to explain, the better.

Google Calendar, but it shows the cost of the meeting

@grenlith @leftpaddotpy There is some info from the Perl Foundation's comments on the rename - https://t.co/i4mZslsEJM but the initial source for the tea was https://t.co/yBmtJRmYnz

[bailey? 🏳️‍🌈 🇿🇦 @bailey_nyaa]

@shs96c I find it surprising that they didn't have some sort of test coverage or something for it, but I can also understand why it was potentially such a consistent reliable thing that it slipped through.

[Sam Handrick @MDSVeritas]

There's something in God of War Ragnarok which is the most special to me. I got to pitch it and the team made it into everything I could have hoped.

I had hoped to wait for some time to talk about it but want to share it now, just in case.

It's the Ballad of Jari and Somr.
