This dude thinks he’s holding strong frame, but he’s stuck in hers.

Where’d he go wrong?

How should he have responded to “It makes me sad…” and “Why is it so difficult?”

[Mike Taylor @MikeTheGuru]

@bcherny Tried using Claude Code in a docker sandbox and it is set up to use an API key (recommended to avoid leaking key or having to use interactive login), but that costs more

@bcherny @grok how often do breakthrough ideas actually come from outside established research teams?

@ScottAdamsSays @elonmusk There are 241 days left in the fiscal year for the government. Decreasing spending by the proposed $4 billion for day is 241*4 = $964 billion, which is basically $1 trillion off the deficit. It would be significant.

@QuickBooks @Intuit Intuit came through on resolving my issue and grandfathering my merchant account pricing so I don't have to pay their new 1% transaction fee (with no cap)! Very appreciative to them for that. I do think their new 1% w/ no $10 cap to process an ACH transaction is way too high.

[Mike Taylor @MikeTheGuru]

@QuickBooks and @Intuit REALLY SCREWED ME OVER TODAY. Because of a bug on THEIR end that they are unable to fix, they want to charge me new $5,000 fee a month, after being a loyal customer for 17 years!! I feel like going nuclear on them and their ridiculous ACH fees

@SamPageDude @SenatorRomney @StateDept This kind of service is one of the best ways to grow government (if it must be grown) because it's fee-based service for those that want it, and in theory, only those who want it must pay for it. More services should be that way

[Mike Taylor @MikeTheGuru]

@GaryGensler @SECGov This is horrible. You're applying old rules to a new paradigm. Stop it. You are an agent of the past instead of a visionary of the future. Applying old securities laws to staking brings overburdensome regulation to a new technology. If I could vote you out, I would.

Hello everyone, I have successfully made a Regex which accepts valid JSON and rejects invalid JSON

[Mike Taylor @MikeTheGuru]

@AmazonHelp Yes. I'm a software engineer, so I've confirmed this is a bug in your javascript code in your checkout process where there are special delivery options

[Mike Taylor @MikeTheGuru]

@NordicTrack There's a lightning deal for NordicTrack Commercial Studio Cycle but nobody can order it because @amazon has a bug in checkout

It took me almost 9 years to learn this but let me teach you these in the next 5 minutes.

It completely changed my life as a programmer. 🧵👇

I love studying narrative & storytelling - so I spent > 20 hours digging through Twitter building an index of popular tweets

“It is always from a minority acting in ways different from what the majority would prescribe that the majority in the end learns to do better.”
—F.A. Hayek

[Mike Taylor @MikeTheGuru]

Great words from a founding father

[Paul Allen (co-founder Ancestry & SOAR AI Studio) @paulballen]

So many founders get rejected so many times before they succeed—and their innovation is finally accepted and then seems obvious, or even inevitable.

Loved this book.

Read it years ago.

And now ReadWise is resurfacing my highlights in it.
