Working to decarbonize every commercial building in North America. Everything here is my opinion, not my employer's.

@sangco Saw it. The weirdest thing what a straight line it was and how evenly and closely they followed each other and how high up they seemed to be

@ashleikblue I could never be sick of you. Bring it on!

@thdxr That is simply gratuitous.

“This isn’t complicated,” says @SenWhitehouse. “Climate risk makes things uninsurable. No insurance makes things unmortgageable. No mortgages crashes the property markets. Crashed property markets trash the economy.”

@samwhoo @t3dotgg I have. For about two weeks straight, a hired gun in Belarus (probably from a competitor) targeted a non-trivial ecommerce site I owned with escalating, targeted attacks. And I can tell you neither serverless nor VPS has anything to do with real ddos attacks in the wild

The longer I run engineering teams, the deeper my conviction that the quality of your tech leads and line level product managers is absolutely critical and no amount of anything else anywhere can overcome issues you have with even one of them in your org

If you are in construction and you want to have a secure business for the next thirty years, you’d have guaranteed bookings basically forever specializing just in white-glove upgrading electrical mains to commercial buildings, including permit and project mgmt

@cremieuxrecueil When people say “there are no Republican journalists” what they are implying is “the Democrats took over media” but what I see in that graph is “people who used to identify as Republican now identify as Independent and there are the same number of Dems as always”

@TammyCamp I wish I could have met your father. He sounded amazing.

@thdxr I find regular Postgres much easier to tune because you don’t have to be as careful about how your data is partitioned

If this clown wins I am going to lose my ever loving mind

[Tim Cull @trcull]

Yes, I know that is a barely disguised racist dog whistle

Also, Trump seems to think that we have a national problem with people eating cats?

I love that Kamala punched him in the rally

I just figured it out. JD Vance thinks he’s Jack Ryan. Like, literally.

@NWSBayArea @ALERTCalifornia Just a bro cleaning his feathers. What’s the problem? :)

@thdxr This front/back obfuscation reminds me of J2EE entity beans or MSFT DCOM circa 2000. “You don’t have to know or care where your code is!” Bitch, yes you do. Networks are real.

A truer thing in software has never been said

[dax @thdxr]

you can't build a good abstraction until you are an expert at using the thing without an abstraction

“In this work, we show that a transition of the AMOC is most likely to occur around 2025-2095 (95% confidence interval)”

I intend to still be alive throughout this entire window

“When complex systems, such as the overturning circulation, undergo critical transitions… a structural change in the dynamics happens. The previously statistically stable state ceases to exist and the system moves to a different statistically stable state.” = we’re fucked

[David Wallace-Wells @dwallacewells]

“Here we provide statistical significance and data-driven estimators for the time of tipping. We estimate a collapse of the AMOC to occur around mid-century under the current scenario of future emissions.” https://t.co/YXYbPQRYuM
