NASA failed to predict the real splashdown risk.

APOLLONIA!! NO!!

It's not yet 8am and there's some dude behind me at this diner who just keeps saying "podcast" and "AI" over and over 😵‍💫 - Not enough coffee in the world ...

Every function, tenderly named. Every variable, chosen with intention. Our loops are closed the old way — with care, with patience, with a light touch of the keyboard that no model can replicate.

"I don't know what they did differently, but I can just… feel it in the API."

Remember artisanal software development?

My cat, scowling

Your dick knew you would face disappointments, loss, setbacks. It’s put in you a fire that cannot be put out. A determination to overcome what’s trying to hold you back. A strength to rise up when every voice is telling you to settle.

"The -3 point penalty hit with all the subtlety of a Randy Johnson fastball to the ribcage, and just like that, a matchday that had been quietly going rather nicely for Jerry turned into a tale of hubris and heartbreak."

Testing a baseball game I'm building and I just got roasted by an AI agent.

I'm not trying to be weird, but ...

I never learned to make corned beef until years after I moved to the US.

My cat supports all of my policy positions.

There's no way she'd cuddle up to me at night if she didn't.

If you don't, I promise to read whatever you write about it in the future!

I'm guessing you have something you wrote already to point me at.

Also, laughing a bit at the phrase about reading papers. I had a HR dispute years ago where their defense was "nobody reads these contracts" - Hell yes I do, that's why I'm being a pain in your ass right now.

Technically you're correct, which is the best form of correct. 20 years ago, I luckily avoided a different but similar trap while my (IMO) intelligent/ responsible friends did not.

Do you have an opinion on whether government regulations (or other policy) should play a role?

Half of your online identity seems to be dunking on people who misunderstand your area of expertise, but now you're picking this fight?

The emperor has no shoes?

What an absolute state.

Congratulations on your win.
