Crazy... I actually hashed out a plan to begin bulding a successor to github earlier this week and this blog post describes EXACTLY what I was thinking about with atproto+git.

Good validation imho.

haha, I was playing Final Fantasy V during computer class in HS.

ZSNES was a core part of my childhood. I downloaded it back when it was still fresh back in the late nineties / early aughts and used to emulate all matter of favorite games and homebrew translation projects for Star Ocean and Tales of Phantasia.

Heh, my eighty year old neighbor uses DeepSeek. Everytime we catch up she tells me about all the new uses she has for it.

Hey! Long time since I've seen you toomuchtodo, how are things going these days?

In a good headspace now, right after the first year was feeling lost on where to go next.

Glad to hear. I had a similar experience, people act like "being in transition" where you are unsure what is next is solveable in a month, maybe three months. After that first year I still felt so unsure what I was supposed to do.

DOGE will be an interesting case study in the years to come to say the least. A friend was contacted by them in an attempt to recruit him to help rebuild the nations aviation systems from the ground up as a 1099 contractor reporting directly to Sean Duffy. The recruiter advertised it as a side hustle on evenings and weekends paying an abmysal hourly wage. When my friend pointed out that the comp was far below what he makes, the recruiter countered with the prestige that will come with having worked for DOGE.

Oh wow this is a trip down memory lane. My parents bought me a computer advertised in the classified ad as “includes over 100 games” and that really meant it came with a book over 100+ games in basic. I’d stay up copying the book to play the games in it. Fun times.

I enjoy his technical and tech culture essays, ones like this are a waste of time and mental energy. I won’t read it because I know it provides zero value.

SNES also had a similar service called StellaView that was only available in Japan. They had live farro and timed legend of Zelda 1 completions iirc.

I used to play some of the roms of these games. The one of Legend of Zelda was pretty slick, redone with A Link to the Past graphics.

As a tourist, the cost was well worth it. Used buses and rail to get everywhere, booked one DB train from Berlin to Bamberg but otherwise travelled all over Germany during my time there.

Just had to remember to cancel.

A lot of folks configure their editor to render |> as a rotated triangle.

Isn’t this the guy who joined Twitter as an intern to “fix” search?

We reset them every time a religious figure comes along anyway.

Gave me a flashback to my middle school days when I used a hex editor to modify my saved game files.

Shut down the stupid blockchain miners that are taxing the grid for no good reason beyond transferring wealth upward.

You should read that dudes Twitter account. It really can be something else sometimes.

Ignore the doomsayers, they purposefully want us to pause progress in the name of “everything is wrong.”

It’s been that way for centuries. There’s always things “getting worse outside your bubble” but there’s also a lot going well.

Never apologize for saying this is the kind of content you come to hacker news for, it is EXACTLY the content that should be here.

People can go to Twitter or something if they want to doomscroll.

But on Twitter they said lord Elon CRUSHED the earnings call.

You and me both, buddy. You and me both.

Elon fans are the absolute worst.

Pretty sure the parent is referring to the Twitter CEO.

paulg's concern about Palestinians is not anti-Semitic despite how much people try to spin it that way.

Get out of here with your facts. I want to live in a world where I can believe an individual will get hard time for acquiring too many IP addresses.

I actually preferred all the independent co-working spaces before wework. They had their own unique character while wework was always a filing cabinet for office workers with no special character to them.

Yeah I read it as the latter myself.

Spreadsheet as a database is a common pattern.

Sorry I pulled my hand out at “left-pad”.

Never say “* exists” as an excuse. When zapier came out Yahoo Pipes existed.

I used to do this all the time back in the day, used to love it.

So drink lots of Red Bull eh??
