Same, @recursecenter seems to gather intensely curious and bright people

I wrote down my thoughts on the latest release of uv and what it means for Rye and other tools in the space. In short: you all should be looking at uv and start to rally around it. https://t.co/9M8HlDxBWL

Incidentally if anyone out there thinks “A for-profit company which legalized building housing would be valuable and I’m just crazy enough to build it” I will write you a small check.

[Recurse Center @recursecenter]

the Recurse Center is an experiment in asking:

what are technologists capable of when they take the time, are given the space, and are surrounded by a stupendous amount of grit, want, and community?

[Recurse Center @recursecenter]

... and now, a word from our take over-er, aka me aka Greg:

what is the Recurse Center..?

it is the most inspiring place I’ve ever attended. it has every single best trait from hackathons, meetups, conferences, maker labs, hacker spaces, r&d labs, art studios and writer’s room.

[Recurse Center @recursecenter]

You can build something great

Everyone who’s ever done something great has at least two things in common: they started, and they didn’t quit when things got hard. This goes for any kind of work, including programming.

all the mimetic pull in the US is to expensive cities in the US. everything is pulling toward more work, more busyness, less family time, and more anxiety

if I'm going to find a home base in the US I think I need to swim against this current. time to go anti-mimetic

[Niki “No Longer Here” Tonsky @nikitonsky]

@jlongster Same with JetBrains IDEs. They always want something for you. I call it “needy software”. When I open IDE, I don’t want to do what IDE needs. I want IDE to do what I need. I want to be in charge. God bless Sublime

[James Long @jlongster]

I was forced to use vscode for something and while I'm typing THREE boxes popped up. How is this possibly useful to people?

[Pooch @repkord]

I don't know who needs to hear this but:

ESpresso is the coffee, EXpresso is just former Presso.

[Peter Lyons @focusaurus]

@PatrickHeneise My knowledge is stale as I moved out of state in 2021 and covid probably changed everything. Sorry.

[Peter Lyons @focusaurus]

Looks like BoulderJS meetup group with over 1900 members needs an organizer. Great opportunity to serve the community and become a hub in the tech network.

[Peter Lyons @focusaurus]

@hikari_no_yume Prices at Five Guys basically doubled at the start of covid. I went in and thought they had rang up some family's order instead of mine but nope.

[Peter Lyons @focusaurus]

@Swizec Holy cow that thing is massive!
