It’s easy to take the pedantic side and decry this as a foolish ruling but I counter that anyone that’s been on a flight knows that not every “window” seat has a window. It’s unfortunate that the common parlance doesn’t match reality but that’s how it is 🤷♂️

This has been my experience in San Francisco over the past 15 years. The techbro types, who see technology as a way to get rich, often share the same worldview that life is about “winning” and in this business you “win” if you are smarter than others, so therefore since they are “winning”, they are smart and deserve everything they get (or… take). But, that mentality and their behavior and the culture it creates can often influence humble, empathetic people into that toxic self-hype cycle.
I saw plenty of those today in SF
Oh sure, let me just check with Charlie Ki- oh wait
White dude in software here to echo the same sentiment. So many of my colleagues have never experienced any hardship of their own or viewpoints of people with different experiences. They don’t think about how their privilege has helped them get where they are, and how their company culture often subtly (at best!) reinforces their worldview and massages their egos. They’ve never tried to think critically about their “meritocracy” or “libertarian” beliefs and how many people are unjustly excluded from the lifestyle they enjoy.
20 years in software development for me.
Maybe I’ll regret asking, but what could “haiku-level brilliant” even mean?
Where’s that venn diagram with all these, and “you are here” in the middle?
That’s kinda silly to make a day for an internet blogger, but ok.
They should’ve put it over Charlie Kirk day, lol (though I know that is also unofficially George Floyd day)
That is a great article, thanks for the link
I have 37TB of media and another 10 in the download queue waiting for storage to be freed up. Which probably would equate to tens of thousands of torrents (or nzbs in my case). So it was absolutely worth my time
Can I get unavailable AI overviews for all my searches? Then Google has a chance to be usable again
Sounds like someone needs to go for a walk
I use it for work so it felt natural to do it at home too. If anyone has time to learn it as a hobby and doesn’t mind a challenge, I recommend it. But IMO you need to already be familiar with a lot of containerization concepts
I use k3s and argocd to keep everything synced to the configuration checked into a git repo. But I wouldn’t recommend that to someone just getting started with containers; kubernetes is a whole new beast to wrestle with.
