I am a huge fan of @thorstenball for his newsletters. But he also randomly drops goated knowledge like this https://t.co/IrmpAAjwlQ
just makes me want to work with folks like him. I am probably not checking off all the items on the list. One day I'll get there for sure.
busy things are happening as i move to SF next week. i made a small something in my profile specifically for founders to let them know what kind of teams i'd like to work alongside.
formerly twitter, do your thing and connect me to the founders in SF who are building the next layer of the internet please?

@tanishasharmax That makes so much sense, if the model can realise if it needs to hand back the control to human in the loop, i think we could see a significant increase in positive agent actions
@atbrakhi I recently came across your work on servo and I would love to know how someone can get started on browser engine hacking. Do you have any advice for newbies like me?
A few weeks ago I noticed that Linear got slower than it used to. Especially on the new Diffs feature, that we were getting ready to release, it was pretty bad. For days I was running profiles, staring at profiles, bisecting with agents from every direction.
The pattern was clear - we accessed the DOM a ton, which blocked the main threads on style recalcs and layout for 10s or 100s of milliseconds over and over.
I shipped dozens of PRs to get rid of those layout-causing calls, using pretext and whatever tricks the agents and I could come up with. It helped, but only a bit. I was getting desperate.
