@LyalinDotCom Cheers, I am on 28y being paid for coding work. Corporate type 14y and now 14y in our small stable startup. We finally seem to be narrowing down product market fit lol 😆 Also recently realised there's 10y left, what does that look like me?

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv Way early but this may be great starting point to show that we've created a societal system that balances economics so that someone benefits from u being sick and is thus motivated to be an expert at being the person one seeks out when sick... hmm my phrasing needs work tho :)

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@mbateman Tacit knowledge upgrade! Can u put it in words yet? Maaybe, but that will take some work of a different kind to produce. I think of it as collapsing an n dimentional state into a 1 dimentional line if words, doing that is a non trivial exercise

@a_fellow_of I've had to move back to consensus a bit when buying stuff. There's a reason why that restaurant is fully booked. Why everyone buys that car. I used to not rate the economies of scale that winners get. But everything else i feel more convinced of past 50. Darn howd I get so old🤣

the top right corner of vscode is starting to resemble an iq test

So next month is going to be a zero bug fix month?
Prob not, some lower priority ones in the queue left. But going to zero until an even better model comes out?

Skepticism of corporate marketing and AI boosterism is always warranted, but I think the folks who accused Anthropic of overrating Mythos should check out this post by Mozilla developers indicating that the Firefox team fixed more security bugs in April using Mythos than in the past 15 months combined.

@xuenay Noo 8 or 16 is where its at. Some multiple of 2 for binary, hex and oct compatability, then everything is groovy. We would probs still mess some things up tho. Look at what happened with time's units

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv Would be interesting to try the parenting approach. Now I'm keen to try something difficult so I can see 💪

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv It helped me power thru uncertainty. Each one of those steps could have turn into another yak shaving element, also made me care less if it was perfect

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv Maybe our 3x girls were less demanding than other kids. But i do not recall bribing them ever. We could not afford to, 3 of them at similar age they outnumbered us and we could not afford a single mistake or our lives would regress to a previous level of suffering

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv The word Bribery feels wrong to me. Negotiation is a thing; but good faith negotiation. If u keep your word the negotiation becomes easier over time. Bribery means going outside the system. This has negative consequences for the system of negotiation. Does that make sense?

@moultano @shebringsjoy We did this, they're now 14 and twins at 13 and doing amazing. Top if their classes esp wrt reading and math. Slowly recently started branching out to other uses for their devices and are only now starting to get interested in pc games and then mostly narrative or building based

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@webdevMason Only realised how worried the specialist gynecologist was at the relief on his face when both were outside. The amount of work with twins do NOT scale linearly. If u know someone with twins, give them a hug and offer to help

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@c4talyst Ooh nice. Do u use opencode with it? We recently started spending real amts of money on codex and claude. At some stage I wonder if local hosting becomes worthwhile. Many many factors tho

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@Malcolm_Ocean The leg positions on both trio bases are not something i'd like my gymnast kids to try tho :)

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv Hmm be more mindfull of how u hold ideas. Lift framing and saftey makes my issues worse. I'm already too carefull of getting hurt. I think I need to be more carefree and exploratory rather than weighed down by all the connections and possible outcomes.

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@visakanv I noticed that when I'm out running and think about an emotionally taxing work thing that I automatically drop to walking, like the willpower to keep running is being used elsewhere

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@uberstuber Obviously age appropriately adjusting as they grow older

[Caspar Lessing @casparlessing]

@uberstuber Moms job to provide safety; which pushes towards quokka. Dad's job to push the boundaries, be the chaos monkey; teaches not to trust like a quokka. Or something like that is my excuse for playing the role :) Best thing ever when they also start playing infinite games back at u.
