@koomen @Spotify This has always been a problem with classical music metadata, unfortunately. (we dealt with it at Rdio too)

1/15 I've been getting a lot of questions since posting about @regentcraft's first flight:
- What is this thing?
- Why is this important?
- Havent we had seaplanes for years?

This is a *Seaglider* - its a modern take on a flying boat that is new & different in many ways!

Crazy traffic between LA and SD with the closing of I-5 for the wildfires tonight.

I'm spending 3 hours on the road, my team spent 5!

Seagliders will fix this

@josephruscio 🫡 Greetings, fellow Old

A cool thing about getting older is you get to choose whether you're stiff because you worked out or stiff because you didn't.

The problem with @Rivian Ghostbusters mode is I need it year-round.

Big asset manager to @sacca: "We don't do climate."

"Ok. Energy? Advanced manufacturing? Resilience?"

"Love it. Send it over."

We are going to make this a regular event, but until we get into a rhythm expect our first meetup to be a couple of great lightning talks and then some informal feature demos in the hallway track.

[Steve Klabnik @steveklabnik]

very excited to see this out of A\

this is our thesis at @erscio ! But we are building a git compatibility layer: https://t.co/zkm2AhXN5v

enterprise adoption of new source control is a big ask, so making a smooth bridge from the past to the future is a big part of our offer

[Eric Case @Case]

Preach.

[Kun Chen @kunchenguid]

it's insane how much we can save by leveraging our own computers

a few weeks ago i saw my github actions bill was starting to cost, so i started running all mac CI jobs with my self-hosted runners on my m4 mac mini

i just calculated - if i used one of the CI providers for all those mac CI runs, it would have been a $1500-$3000/month bill

absolutely crazy that:

- my self-hosted runners didn't even use half of my mac mini's capacity, yet the equivalent from cloud providers for just a month of usage is more expensive than buying the mac mini itself

- this is way higher than my LLM bills. computers are going to be the real expensive part of software development, not AI

As someone harassed daily by armies of Russian bots, my deepest thanks!

One of the best parts of building software is having fun with it. And the team definitely did with this Halloween update! 🎃

Now live for Rivian owners and their little ones. 👻
