Serious late 90s bogan vibes!

This decision has more to do with their VC funding than AI. Mythos provided a nice excuse.

Cal.com just threw away their major differentiator in a market dominated by calendly. Giving some former interns the job of running the project was th icing on the cake. Let’s check in on them in 12 months.

LinkedIn in ad for investing in “devil resources”, but the AI generated image marker obscures the d. Renaming the company to evil resources.

Sometimes LinkedIn ads are so bad they’re good. The AI generated image marker is perfectly placed for a mining company.

Sometimes it is a coincidence rather than a pattern. In tech it can be hard to tell sometimes.

This is the same company that rebadged Kimi 2.5 as their own. They have form.

List of fire incidents in Canberra Bin fire, Gowrie, 6 minutes ago Car fire, Kambah, 11 hours ago Car fire, Garran, 21 hours ago Car fire, Campbell, 1 day ago

How can you tell it is school holidays in Canberra?

Good book. I “read” it last year through audible. TL;DR: Dorsey is a dick. Elon is a bigger dick. A bunch of the leadership didn’t know how to lead. Lots of anecdotes to back all this up.

Java itself is excellent at increasing cognitive load.

Just pop around there for dinner once a week. You'd be helping Janet out. I'm sure she wouldn't mind.

Feeling like getting a 64GB M4 MBP was the right thing to do. Things are only going to get better.

This is a bit of a novel idea, but how about employers pay their staff good wages, then the workers get to decide how they spend their money? Some may buy tokens. Others might opt for groceries, and save a bit towards a holiday. The really smart ones will engage in insider trading on polymarket.

Someone think of the car! If DXC paid proper wages they may not be able to afford to put their logo on Ferrari’s F1 cars.

@quinnypig.com new mascot?

It’s easier to compare options on my 49” monitor than on my phone.

Taco Tuesday has become every day of the week.

You make a good point. Let’s take this up offline.

Hey vibe coders over at LinkedIn, I see you 👀

You? Nah, that’s me!

Photo of former Iraqi Foreign Minister, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, during the 2003 invasion. He was nicknamed "Baghdad Bob" after this surreal and absurdly optimistic press conferences. In this shot, he’s denying U.S. troop presence in Baghdad while they were visible in the background.

While reading the world news today, I kept thinking of this image.

Is it just me or do a lot more @github.com API endpoints now require authentication? These days it feels like almost everything required auth. I’d check the history but the commit messages aren’t very informative and the UI refuses to render the diffs. github.com/github/rest-...

At this point getting groceries delivered is way more civilised. Supermarkets are running a mass experiment on how much bullshit customers will tolerate. They keep one upping each other and getting away with it because of the cosy duopoly.

Back in 2010 Coles removed the entrance gates to make their stores more welcoming. During COVID the gates returned. A few years ago Coles started locking customers in the store. Woolies followed suit. Maybe if they weren’t price gouging people wouldn’t nick so much stuff www.afr.com/companies/ho...

Woolworths shoppers concerned new anti-theft gates may trap them and hit their children At one store trialling the gates, a customer said ‘if you wanted to enter without hitting your child, you’d have to go in backwards’

Australian supermarkets are making record profits as they become increasingly customer hostile spaces. Aisles clogged with restocking cages. AI powered self checkouts that don’t know their arse from your elbow. Now Woolies want to change the entrance gates to this www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I use environment variable for each session. It’s annoying but it works.

Laid off Aussie workers chasing $40,000 payouts warned over 'embarrassing' trend A growing number of laid off Aussie workers are turning to AI tools to generate workplace claims and 'embarrassing themselves'.

I learned about this at the 1Password booth at ReInvent. Such a cool feature. I keep forgetting to use it. Old methods die slowly :(

Nice! I’m using a micro desktop because I was being cheap. I’ll take your advice and add another aws account to my org. Care to share the code?

You make MCPs sound like Jira. Does that mean skills and CLIs are linear?

Oh god no! They can have Open AI. I hope Amazon buy Anthropic. It would be a better outcome.
