In the Bay Area, even tsunamis get cancelled.

I find it vaguely comforting they found Xanax in al-Assad’s palace. Like oh good even the homicidal maniacs are on the edge

Rust has a history of dropping features like garbage collection, OOP, and pure functions. So, keep that in mind the next time you get upset that Scala 3 dropped experimental support for macros. #rust #scala https://youtu.be/rNROsljsI6U

The promise of @atproto.com will be realized when alternative apps will appear that will have different moderation.

Why couldn’t have Biden just pardon his son for all time, since his birthday into infinity?

Still very sparse and random here. X is much better for now.

Some people would call it hoarding. While others will see an upcoming ten days in the UK.

There was once a man in Nantucket Who threw up in an S3 bucket 🪣 With the tables corrupted And his job interrupted He just shrugged with an audible “fuck it.”

A reminder that a Data Lake is just an S3 bucket choke full of CSV files

The beautiful gifts of the season include the ability to ignore Kara Swisher.

I think I know how to do polls! I’ll give you options as replies. You’ll like the reply you chose as your answer. Let’s practice on @susanpotter.bsky.social’s question: what would you choose between sticky and slimy?

TIL “EFJ”, another thing nobody has heard about before they left X.

10 judges appointed by 6 presidents rejected 23 motions brought by 87 claimants. At the same time, 5 judges appointed by 3 presidents granted 56 motions by 123 claimants. How many judges appointed by how many presidents does it take to change the constitution?

Why does this place still feel very parochial, provincial, and kinda stale, even though the cesspool of X is vibrant and cosmopolitan? Like New York with rats and energy? And this is what, San Francisco with the kindergarten curfew?

Especially the one in the new Murakami novel.

Love the iconic OG reference!

One billionaire builds electric cars, reusable rockets, tunnels. Another sells some kind of prescription, er, solutions? Guess which one is celebrated on which social media site.

Говорят, Барух Спиноза Был фанат витаминоза. Бормотал себе по нос, «Нахуй авитаминоз!»

A long time ago, I entertained an idea to be surrounded by beautiful women. And now, with my wife and our three daughters, as they are growing up, I find myself in the presence of beautiful, smart and strong women all the time. Feeling blessed and giving thanks!🙏

One of very few surprising positive outcomes of the “Russian Hoax” is “The Americans.” Which, just like the 2016/20/24 elections, is by Americans, with Americans, about Americans, and for Americans.

@chrisalbon.com OK when we follow each other the world is whole again and this place makes some sense!

Hmm #DataBS is an unfortunate choice of a hashtag for databases.
