@walterkirn Nice essay. Very good match between the riding of the scooter and the article's pace. Good clear moral too.

Wish you had spent a little more time on the moment of the crash and the aftermath. The pacing was very different.

@StephenMil48 Actually it rests with you all for not focusing on Congress enough.

Why did you put a Senator from South Dakota in such a crucial role?

You clearly have a blind spot here.

I am done with this shit. It is over. The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude. There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.

@walterkirn I hope you will engage with the thread and not leave it dangling.

@walterkirn Great question and great use of X. My answer: anxiety.

[Binnacle @jmbinnacle]

@14Farms @walterkirn Yes, but not all philosophy. Philosophy as understood by a child; philosophy that is emotional.

@walterkirn @Gutfeldfox Dude, bad format. No one gets much time on Gutfeld. You need to restart a podcast.

Progressives thought they were on the right side of history. When they wake up to the reality that their policies resulted in the sterilization of children, the killing of mentally ill addicts, the decimation of education, and more, they will be horrified.

An article I've been working on for a while.

The Seditious Six did not spring out of nowhere. They came from an institutional lineage that started soon after President Trump got elected. https://t.co/ThQ8CFmZpx

@DataRepublican Why is your book not available until October?

@Avatrode Please hurry and prioritize privacy!

@bot And Android users?

@JasonBud GB needs to do a better job of cleaning up after itself when running in headless mode.

[Binnacle @jmbinnacle]

@JasonBud TUI on the desktop is much better than Claude Code now.
