@ChaseGiunta I can relate. Two CT scans, two echograms, basically two of everything last year to hit the max out-of-pocket limit. Might have been cheaper without insurance

Agentic-first development seems to amplify ADHD symptoms because you never get into flow. Rather, you wait, wait some more, then try to get your head back into the game to validate a (sometimes overwhelming) pile of code output. Still, I prefer it

@DataRepublican My instinct tells me that corruption and blackmail are a larger variable than any of us think. DC is a center of power, occupied by people who are occupied with power

Apparently, last year was the last year I spent architecting software, writing code, and collaborating with teammates to establish consensus on such things. Now I direct agents to do that. The shift was sudden and felt oddly natural

A life well lived. Rest in peace, brother. God bless your family. Hope to see you on the other side

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

"Much of what is called 'social problems' consists of the fact that intellectuals have theories that do not fit the real world. From this, they conclude that it is the real world which is wrong and needs changing."

— Thomas Sowell

Ditto. The political spectrum I'm concerned with is totalitarianism vs liberalism, not left vs right. The "hate speech" obsession is a the totalitarian urge to crush political dissent. It does not belong in the conservative/classical liberal vocabulary

I voted for a lot of things that I'm getting. I did not vote for this. This is the most dangerous thing I've heard an official say in a long time, and that includes the previous administration.

@Renegade19711 @atensnut For those asking, Political Advertising is defined here https://t.co/gmuL6p9eh5 The new bill is scoped to social media posts that are already subject to advertising disclosure laws. With concerns about the influence of deep fakes, however, I'd expect the boundaries to be tested

What I love about TypeScript is being able to refactor hundreds of lines of front-end code or write an entire feature without firing up the browser, then having only two or three bugs to fix. But I still hate TypeScript

@ZTPetrizzo It was a definitely concern, addressed by a close eye on ballots this time around, and the deterrent of a locked and loaded RNC legal team 🤷‍♂️

@davidzweig Most of my Gen X Democrat friends are classical liberals. They believe in individual liberty and personal responsibility - ideas despised by the postmodern, deconstructionist, progressive left. This election was, in a philosophical frame, Locke vs. Hobbes

CMS comparison: Building a motorcyle

WordPress: Get a car, tear it apart, weld some parts together till it looks like a motorcycle.

Drupal: Get a car factory, retool the machines till they produce motorcyles.

Craft CMS: Get materials, build a motorcycle.
