Please welcome to the stand Courts of Contempt—Hell Gate and @typeinvestigations.org new interactive investigation into the machinations of New York's broken judicial system. Secret recordings. Fixed judicial conventions. Sketchy donations. Get ready to dive in. hellgatenyc.com/welcome-to-t...

An update on our availability: ersc.io/blog/ersc-av...

The "S" in AI stands for "Steve"

uh, @steveklabnik.com

@ersc.io is moving with intent y'all. We hear you and are excited to show you what we've been working on soon!

Hotels should provide a map to all the light switches in the room

If I had to drop @jj-vcs.dev I honestly don't know what I would do with myself. The megamerge workflow is so incredibly powerful for me that my brain short circuits trying to do anything else isaaccorbrey.com/notes/jujuts...

amazing

It's cold brew season

The last 5 years have convinced me that aliens visiting Earth wouldn’t be a big news story 2 months later.

we are doing austinsystems.org TONIGHT in beautiful ATX, and it is being sponsored by my work @ersc.io. you can either be there or you can be square, it's your choice 🫵🏻

This is how all my nightmares begin now

I spent an hour today arguing to delay a feature launch, only to realize my fear was a one-way door that existed pre-agents, but now the cleanup project from this category of mistake is much easier. Never ceases to amaze me how radically the assumptions have changed.

@krazam.bsky.social in East Village showing off their new sketch show which drops tomorrow.

"All in all, however, this was definitely an impressive success story. I think Claude Shannon’s spirit is probably proud to know that his name is now being associated with such advances. Hats off to Claude!" cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/paper...

I still believe code review is necessary for many reasons, but I don't think I'll be putting code in front of a human without running it through an LLM ever again. It would be inconsiderate to the reviewer not too.

ben in two hours: > issuing correction on a previous post of mine, regarding former executive teams. you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them"

I'm increasingly certain that unhinged analogies are just a side effect of being CEO.

yeah who's building this??!?!?!?

$ jj describe -m "Hello, world!"

On the bright side, Gateways are a nice improvement.

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

I showed Gas Town to my business partner Rich and he said “oh it's SOAP/WSDL for agents” and I am still processing that.

The #tokioconf speakers and talks just got posted: www.tokioconf.com Ticket sales are open! Since it is our first conference, it is hard to estimate how many people will come. We're starting conservative, only 200 tickets right now.

We're actively looking to grow our team at @ersc.io again! If you are interested or know someone who might be, I'd love to chat. We are looking for distributed storage folk as well as frontend/UX.

For Rust people interested in async code at TokioConf, I'll see y'all in April!

Increasingly a fan of "electric bike" as a LLM analogy, it's a powerful force multiplier. I'm also suspicious of people who only ride electric bikes.

Pluribus ending🤌

> in fact, volunteering that an LLM has been used to generate work product is to implicitly distance oneself from the responsibility for the content — and serves as to erode the trust that is essential for teamwork. The whole RFD is great, but I particularly related with this line.

At the risk of starting the flame war to end all flame wars... Modern LLMs (GPT-5.1, Claude 4.5, Gemini 3) produce excellent code and can be a significant productivity boost to software engineers who take the time to learn how to effectively apply them - especially if used with coding agent tools

I swapped all our k8s Ingress for Gateway and while a change from the familiar, it seems like a nice improvement.

In Rust, we don't say: "you forgot to run fmt with +nightly" instead we say: Warning: can't set `imports_granularity = Item`, unstable features are only available in nightly channel. and I think that's beautiful

Samply is such a nice straightforward sampling profiler. So glad to add this to my toolkit. github.com/mstange/samply

Ahh, this is why our mailing list subscribers started going up. Excited to have Steve join us 😄

A programmer can have a function painted any color that they want so long as it is async.

i think React shies away a bit too much from acknowledging its FP heritage. it's partially because you don't want to alienate people, and FP with its terminology is often alienating but like.. i think it makes sense to acknowledge React is still fundamentally FP. that's why it's weird and wonderful

Why does every AI conversation break down? Next Tuesday at 12pm ET, @steveklabnik.com and Richard Feldman are exploring why the AI discourse keeps breaking down and what better conversations might look like. Join us 🧵

I wrote some typst today so I was no longer mangling some lawyer approved .docx files and I found it quite pleasant.

jj v0.34 is out, including Gerrit upload support! github.com/jj-vcs/jj/re...

@ersc.io is heading to #jjcon & #gitmerge this weekend! Please say hi if you see me!

"whats heroku. is that a vape"

I finally put Slay the Spire on my phone for this upcoming flight and I already know I've made a mistake.

EXCLU: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will announce today he is cancelling a televised town hall with WABC News planned for Sept. 25 in the wake of the network suspending comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show last week. www.amny.com/news/mamdani...

NYCer goes to another country and laments how no one else knows how to walk, it's certainly not us who is the problem.

One pretty foolproof way to know your government is fascist is when your government tries to punish you for calling it fascist.

FYI, I got an obvious phishing attempt in my inbox from `[email protected]` that was masquerading as a security breach notification. It made it past gmail's spam filters. The link goes to the `github.rustfoundation.dev` domain.
