nico is incredibly successful and brilliant but disagree with this take / soundbite

University can be what you make of it. learn from the gods/true wizards.

it's a cheat code to get a fast course on life lessons without having to make painful mistakes others have made.

"I think going to university was a big mistake.

If you want to do big things, you need to go out into the wilderness, get humbled, and go through the lows before the highs.

I wasted some amount of time in my life doing it." @nico_laqua

How do you advise young people now on the value of university today vs going straight into startups/work @paulg @nejatian @balajis @fin465 @walden_yan

Whoever is the PM @Apple in charge of macos settings, get in touch :)

it's really genuinely unusable. This option is found under Battery, "Advanced Options". Has nothing to do with the Battery.

Bad information scent.

i strongly suspect openai is secretly paying popular AI podcasters to bias themselves in their reporting towards their models and products over anthropic's. podcasters should fully disclose their sponsors

Opus 4.7, stopping 1 min into a task:

Wait! Which Option would you like?
A - This option is good and will solve your problem
B - This option is bad and won't fix anything
C - This option is just filling space

I would recommend Option A. What do you want to do?

das blinkenlights of my hard drive allowed me to connect to my computer at a visceral level :) i'm not sure how that translates to the ridiculous speeds of SSDs but i'm here for it

[Dave W Plummer @davepl1968]

Hard Drive activity indicator for the Mac: my first Swift app. Wrote it this morning because I wanted it.

It monitors disk queues at 120Hz and triggers the LED for 10ms, which seems pretty realistic.

What should I do with it? I pay the $100 Apple Developer tax, should I put it on the app store for $1 or just stick it on my GitHub and hope people can figure it out?
