Remember when Github was announcing each new hire on their blog and it felt like they were hiring EVERYONE!

I wonder what it was like to stop that. The pain of managing the first hire that didn't get the announcement.

I started playing with the new Claude voice mode. I told it I needed info on doing AI evals. It heard "doing AI evils". 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Coursera added support for dark mode. This is so welcome! Thank you! Thank you!

What really puzzles me is why the default is light mode and not system mode.

I noticed this in lots of apps. Defaulting to light instead of respecting the system choice.

You either die an agent, or you see yourself live long enough to become an OpenClaw-clone.

Someone decided to use one of my email addresses as the from in a lot of spam, and I'm getting all the responses.

So many email servers still don't check for SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and so many check and send an email back with the failure, to the from address. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

Inspiration is for amateurs, the pros go to work.

I started a Pytorch project without using Lightning because I was just doing a small experiment... well, the experiment grew and I found myself writing a lot of code that I thought should exist somewhere already. It did... in Lightning. Now I'm converting the project.

I think big companies either hire junior engineers or get taken over by the startups they co-found using the AI tools big companies think mean junior engineers are not needed anymore.
Never give up!
Never surrender!
