Apropos of nothing, I though of this great article by @metabrew from 2008 which includes a few dozen lines of Erlang code powering a long-polling server that can handle 1M connections :-) metabrew.com/article/a-mill…
briefly looked at my mom’s facebook and it’s all AI, like every single post, and she has no idea, it’s a complete wasteland

Offering a "Free sponsored" video" to any indie game studios following me. Shoot me your pitch as a tweet (pictures help) and I'll pick one to make a video on. (might do more than one if they're awesome) bonus points for cool strategy or 4x games [Check replies for cool games]

late to the party, but I started asking chatgpt my rust questions today, instead of Google. it's so much better than googling and hoping to land on a decent stack overflow or whatever page. very impressed. great with follow up questions to steer it how I want, too.

Testing out @HeyGen_Official translation on French and German. I don’t speak either language so let me know if it sounds natural if you do. I hope if you pay you can turn off the color correction. It didn’t work on my phone so I had to upload on my pc. app.heygen.com/guest/template…

tried Fortnite for the first time recently. fun, but overwhelmed by blingy casino style kerr-chings everywhere. anything you pick up feels like winning in Vegas.
Amused by the netgear wifi router I just connected to offering up the username and password in the "unauthorized" response 🤦🏼♂️
Cut, bent, and soldered some 15mm copper pipe and installed an outside tap. No leaks! 💪 First time I used my blowtorch on something other than food.

"The amount of serendipity that will occur in your life is directly proportional to the degree to which you do something you're passionate about combined with the total number of people to whom this is effectively communicated."
"Do stuff and then blog about it" remains one of the most underrated pieces of career advice
An absolutely fantastic way to increase this is to start a blog. Almost all the cool fun stuff in my professional life for me has come from doing stuff then blogging about it. henrikkarlsson.xyz/p/search-query
My friends have named their new baby Steven. That's an interesting turn of events.
the boomer asserts physical control and dominion over their phones; to them the phone is a tool, a utility separate from oneself. to us, our phone is an extension of the self, one where our muscles have trained so long to interface with using minimal effort. our phones swipe us.
why do boomers do the “hold phone in one hand, unlock screen by swiping up dramatically with the index finger of the other hand?” seems to be a universal generational trait

Early ISIS videos wreaked havoc on me
My favorite moment from the Bay Area House Party series.
Blackthorne: You tell him that this lettering is a font I know as “Arial”. The shit-eating dogs of Microsoft made a atrocity to man and God in this plagiarism of the venerable Helvetica—a fraud and a lie, and he must know it! Mariko: Anjin is upset about the shape of the letters
I have become an instant "Claude 3 Opus" convert.
@RobertMSterling don't ask the frontend developers what their shiny Microsoft BI interface wrapper is aggregating (it's excel spreadsheets pulling in .csvs generated by a black box cobol package coded by a greybeard who passed away during COVID and left no documentation or comments inline)

apparently this is a picture of citadel’s risk center. it made me think of an alan kay talk where he discusses how big missions, like going to space, have a “mission control room” where the entire mission is managed & yet it’s rare to find businesses w their own “mission control”
The latest version of WhatsApp has capped the T in “typing…” and it is ruining human interaction for me.

I'd like to just take a second to appreciate the fact that Sega designed the Dreamcast controller buttons in a way that they can never be inserted incorrectly.
The way Nigerian twitter is blowing up at this makes me think a lot of ChatGPTisms are just colloquial language for the workforce they hired to write fine tuning data.
