The website cbc.ca has good journalism. But today I learned that non-Canadians can read unlimited articles for free?! (please don’t tell anyone! it's socialism to get the news and hockey scores for free)

Canadian English has long struggled as a clumsy mash-up of receding empires. As prime minister I will make Canadian English the best English in the world.

Every era invents a new reason why the old rules don’t apply. Then the old rules apply anyway. Tulips. Railroads. Radio. Dot-com. Housing. JPEGs. AI. Different costumes // same brain. The most expensive sentence in history is: “This time is different.” www.joanwestenberg.com/the-loop-ev...

Metro reaches 1.0! It's the proudest work of my career and I strongly feel this is how dependency injection in Kotlin should be. Thank you to everyone that's contributed and helped this project get to where it's at. Metro wouldn't be where it is without you. www.zacsweers.dev/metro-is-sta...

I’m running for Toronto City Council in Ward 11 University–Rosedale.

My big takeaway rereading that post is: * Not all test shaped code is fit for automated test suites * This includes flaky tests * Test shaped code is frequently invaluable! People defend flaky tests for a reason * Behind every flaky test is a reproducible test begging to be found

My most oversimplified political belief that I keep coming back to is that you have to solve for good outcomes _and for vibes_. You ignore the vibes at your peril — and that imperils the good outcomes too

Playing lots of Botswana with the family. The game pieces and illustrations are extremely nice. Quick to learn, fast to play, and fun. My 8-year-old daughter’s strategy ‘maximize giraffes’ even got her the win last night. boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/39...

Did you enjoy reading Project Hail Mary? Want more? Delta-V is a fun space adventure. I recommend it.

This is the single best article on color spaces I have seen around. Well written, well informed and illustrated with interactive visualizations. Truly brilliant work by Eric Portis! ericportis.com/posts/2024/o...

I do think there is something to the idea that the intransigence of the pro/anti-AI public debate is more due to power imbalance than it is about the tools themselves. It's less about AI and its outputs than it is about being forced to use AI and forced to consume AI generated content.

egg nog at Easter Christmas should be absolutely furious at this blatant theft of its seasonal beverage Christmas should get an injunction against Easter to immediately halt this If they let this go, next year we’re all gonna have to decorate our homes with Easter lights

It’s important to annualize the costs while you’re there. That $4000 for high speed rail is probably amortized over decades, not $4000/year.

The KotlinConf schedule is stacked this year! kotlinconf.com/schedule/

The news should use per capita for dollar amounts.

Normalize saying "I would not have done it that way. I like your solution, it's much better" in pull requests/design debates.

Metro is so good! If you haven't tried yet, I strongly suggest you to!! I wish IntelliJ allowed non-bundled K2 compiler plugins to contribute their FIR checkers to the IDE so we could see diagnostics in real-time. Perhaps a Metro IntelliJ plugin could bridge the gap until then

Metro 0.13.0 adds top-level contribution providers, Circuit code gen, and a new @DefaultBinding annotation. This also removes most deprecated APIs as Metro prepares to go stable (!!). If you have runtime API feedback, now is the time! github.com/ZacSweers/me...

Two factions on Bluesky one wants the AI bubble to pop because AI is bad the other wants the AI bubble to pop so they can run AI with cheaper compute

My latest:

KotlinPoet 2.3.0 supports typealias declarations inside types, has new convenience API for adding annotations and ships with a healthy dose of bug fixes. Time for a version bump! 🤜🤛 github.com/square/kotli...
