Is this faster than diskx inventory or other gui tools?

Not manually cleansing data and building apps with AI to do the parts you can't or don't want to do is a massive lift.

I can do things that were far beyond my reach — suddenly. Almost all at once.

"Now you can discover you suck at marketing and business" :D

Ironically, the text color choice on the website reflects exactly this kind of thinking.

live, laugh, cruft

Next level is to reach out directly and ask them if you can just sponsor directly with said micropayment ($20/month). SUrprisingly, most say no.

Your special kindness is not worth $20/month to even moderately successful creators.

Or, buy two Starbucks/month to set and forget

I pay YouTube Premium and get no ads there. It's totally worth it for me.

I get that they aren't performing less tracking on me, and they've labeled me as "will pay subscriptions for stuff".

But I get so much out of YouTube that's it's a no-brainer.

So obviously generated

WTF, I got this announcement from HN. Uhhh channel anyone?

Yah you get this inner platform effect where designers start unwittingly creating their own version of css using Figma and it gets really bespoke really fast.

I was making a new brand file in Figma and was about to define all the variables and aliases, paths, all that. Took one look at it and just made the 8 colors I needed and went on with the design.

This is also why i gave up on it. Don't want to install iTerm either, more blaot.

Aren't special and general relativity the grand leviathans of intellectual achievement? Pure thought unlocking the nature of existence.

TLDR: practice. If you have sufficient natural talent xor will, you will eventually go past the canon of available material and begin to transcribe your own. Then there are those who move to creation, either immediately or somewhere in the path.

Feels sloppy (is sloppy) but I think the idea is to prioritize OS unification for hardware reasons, and UX across product suite — devices can share data, apps, screens, everything.

I wonder if tube harmonics modeled by solid state settings has shaped music. Of course it has; music from that era is instrument-oriented.

The discovery of feedback tones and the resulting incorporation in the musical experience — a three hour warm bank of tubes turned up to the limit with a maxxed out savant unlocking new realms of sound.

Isn't it more of a style decision where if your team rebases, and practices clean code discipline, and excellence is a habit rather than an enforcement — the signals visibly emit in `status`.

Most committers don't really understand remotes, much less rebasing.

The second half of the post essentially describes low/high context social dynamics.

Outside of linguistucs, I've seen it applied as a concept of social group inclusion and mobility. Eg. America is a low context society — if you mess up you can move across town. Other cultures that are high context, your family will be shunned for generations with no hope of success.

Wonders if author has studied low vs high context societies

Men, asymptotic to 100% factors, women absolute 100% factors.

Wondering if this is point author is trying to make?

You lost me at, "XML is not that bad if you are already doing <x>". Verbosity is insane, attribute vs element freedom induces crowd madness. But I do love the data-visiting parts, why can't they somehow get that into Markdown.

Crabs in a bucket is probably the bandit left triangle, people competing by dragging others down.

Flaizers are the lower left quadrant, what original author refers to as "stupid" — causing harm to themselves and others with no benefit for any parties.

Yeah I know stop trying to make fetch a thing

"Why is Redis talking to MongoDB?"

lol, In the diagram, Redis is not even talking with MongoDB

I finally made the switch to vim when I was working on a really large frontend template that consisted of the same massive repeated block where a small portion of each was different based on a condition.

There was a lot of search and replace, and emacs started dogging it really hard on like the 10th condition block.

Ha, I have independently arrived at this theory, with far less structure and elegance.

Flaize = flail + lose. You're flailing and you're losing (and taking other people down with you).

"The world is full of flaizers, non-stop flaizing," encompasses laws 1 and 3.

Doesn’t emacs slow down on really long files? I mean like 8,000 lines

It’s a well made, elaborate infomercial with a science hook.

Don't take it personally; not inviting them after a few times is enough.

Then, finally you reach the last layer: a 4" x 6" notepad and pen that are always kept at your desk
