The question really is, how outrageous is it

Did you get me one or?

my code is always perfect

it’s the computer, text editor, language and browsers that are wrong

If you don’t put proper guardrails on your AI, this is what happens

I’ve felt this way about him for years. His “genius” is all just bravado and arrogance.

This record goes so hard

Meta to end diversity programs ahead of Trump inauguration

Just wow. Looks like Zuck really is head-deep inside Trump’s a** now. He really is just another spineless billionaire. Shouldn’t have expected more of him. And won’t ever again.

The Halo Effect and Stick To Your Guns records dropped today. Stoked. Let’s go!

AI, in its current state, is essentially a rehashed version of QnA if we’re completely honest with ourselves.

It’s so sad to see what’s happening with all these skate shoe brands just selling out and pushing out all the skaters who helped grow and keep them relevant.

I get they might have been losing money, but damn. People buy shoes to support the rider, or at least they used to…

Saaaaame

*roll. Urgh.

Yeah I think at scale it’s kind of an inevitable thing that you need more of these processes and approaches to be able to confidently ship. But there’s a fine balance, and I think we’ve hit a good cadence at DDG where we ship with intention and care, but we don’t overthink or delay ourselves.

Hard relate to this. This is how we role at DDG, and it takes very specific types of people to manage it, hence hiring is tough!

Ah thanks dude! Although what I’ve written is far less popular than the selection you’ve shared haha.

A couple people are like “she’s actually barely lost any net worth” and that’s kind of the point: you can do an incredible amount of stuff and give away billions of dollars and not even notice it and 95% of rich people won’t even do that because they’re nihilist assholes

I remember getting this and absolutely loving it. Best Christmas present ever back when it first dropped.

Such a simple and minimal design, but it encouraged me to listen to songs without knowing what was coming next, so I’d typically avoid skipping them and just bask in the randomness.

If the Zoom rebrand solves anything, it should be saving us the precious minutes when people say “can you see my screeeeen?” still.

“Forgot it was still on and now I can’t turn it off without things looking weird”
