Really cool. The animations within a frame work well.

Reminds me of the 2009 History Channel series Life After People

Software engineering is always light on case studies though, for instance test driven development, or static vs. dynamic typing, people have been debating these for quite a long time.

"Go out and talk to people" isn't valid advice. It's never been, but in 2025 finally even the mainstream is slowly admitting that this doesn't work.

Why doesn't it work?

He might not have but some industry insiders, for instance YC are releasing videos like this:

"Vibe Coding Is The Future" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IACHfKmZMr8

Could call them "stacked intervals" like "stacking thirds" to make a triad

It reminds me of how media folks always explain to us that people want celebrity gossip and reality shows rather than substantive programming. Do they really or are they just responding to what's popular/promoted?

I hope they go with "Ludicrous" like in Spaceballs.

Don't many medications dehydrate you though? And Americans are on a lot of medications.

it has been absolute garbage for 10+ years

The 15 year olds of today are going to say the same thing in 10 years though. I don't think it really was that great when we were 15, we only think it was.

I know the thing to do is say "oh it was good when x and y were still on there"

And almost always that golden period was when you were 15 years old

This still happens all the time.

People win the lottery all the time too

Long Island is a very dense with overhead power lines, but then again look at Tokyo.

Are you sure we're talking about the same Lex?

Does other people vaping near you in an enclosed space have a meaningful physiological effect or otherwise?

Yeah it makes his "blood boil"

I cringe whenever I hear the "it's SEO that ruined the search results" excuse for Google's incompetence/negligence.

Could you also call it mob rule?

I don't think it's idiotic at all. Volunteering is a great activity to meet people.

I think too many people think friendship is what happens between people that are the same

This is so true. Just think, why is it that as children we often become friends with the kid who lives next door or across the street? Is it that we magically have the same tastes? Or is it just that we see them all the time?

If you don't waste that time scrolling Instagram, Reddit, etc.

How much of this is due to theft? If you ask someone on the right I'm sure they'd say a lot, and someone on the left would say hardly at all.

Is that what you'd call "scare quotes"?

Under "Great Moments in Hacker History" they mention Masters of Destruction (MOD). Do they mean Masters of Deception?

My cat said the same thing.

Using an Uber once a week on the way back grocery shopping is still a lot cheaper than owning a car.

Yes, but a huge reason for that is that they're so rare that there are way more people that want to live there than the supply, so they fetch a premium.

NYC just charging not insanely low property tax, especially on these billionaire condos would be a good start.

Actually Hitler's father Alois Schicklgruber changed his name to Alois Hitler.

We paid for this. In the late 90s we purposely reduced the number of doctors graduating from medical school.
