@tekbog interviewed a "senior python developer" yesterday
when asked about virtual environments he says "I kind of just gave up on them"

which, like, isn't a great response for a senior python developer, but also, like, I get it

@kellogh You think too highly of me. I am surrounded by so many smart folks doing wildly cool things - just trying to do some small infra things here and there :)

Had a fun crossover between real life and distributed systems failing me. Booked a hotel using Cash + Point using @IHGhotels - card charged and points removed from account but no reservation. Activity in account shows the transactions but no reservation. Computers are bad.

Dear lady at the Prague airport at 8:36 am on a Thursday chugging a beer like it's water,

You did it! You’ve closed all your rings in one week: An attempted assassination, Y2K and a presidential candidate dropout.

A new hire wrote this in their onboarding blurb:

"For the Gen Z in the team: tl;dr; just bussin fr fr no cap."

And I don't have a fucking clue what that means.

OH: "I got invited to a Soylent dinner party"

[Breland “organic LLM” Miley 🏳️‍🌈 @mindstorms6]

Few things are more upsetting to me than pulling another team's project and being unable to build it because they haven't modeled their dependencies correctly.
