Way too long to write here :) I've lived a couple of lives that have led me to become a CTO and a farmer on a quinta. I'm here for the tech and science community and for kind people with interesting minds. Resist fascism!

“Ideas are nothing; execution is everything.” Really? Without ideas, 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 are you executing, exactly? Better: • Ideas are the start • Strategy is how to win • Execution is actually winning

Kristi Noem thinks her lie about Sen. Padilla not identifying himself is a real own when, in fact, her supposed inability to recognize a US Senator--who is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship & Border Safety--makes her goons' thuggery even more disgraceful.

You don’t need Kubernetes. You don’t need microservices. You don’t need 6 layers of abstraction. What most teams need is a monolith, basic CI, and a reminder that users don’t care about your infra.

If Americans overcome the current administration, they'll need to confront the fact that preexisting laws & norms paved the way for authoritarianism and that their checks and balances are easily bypassed by a shameless enough admin. They'd need to rethink their whole institutional framework.

I see more and more each year a kind of learned helplessness in developers who are being pigeonholed into narrower and narrower roles. Arrested developers, you might say.

"They didn't realize they were tackling a Senator for asking questions, they thought they were tackling a journalist for asking questions" oh, ok then

We've had exactly one GDP reading since Trump became President and it showed the economy contracting.

Same here.

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

“Only voters in Sweden have stronger anti-Trump views than Australians, who believe the president is unable to understand complex problems, not qualified to hold his job, and is unlikely to deal with major issues such as the wars in Ukraine and Gaza.”

President Trump on Russia, WWII and paradoxes: And now everybody hates Russia and they love Germany and Japan. His quote and my notes below. "Now, in all fairness to him [Putin], he lost 51 million people and he did fight. Russia fought. Sort of interesting, isn't it?

My message on the protests in LA and the deployment of troops (4700):

we’re going to think about this girl’s smile all day (and yes… she’s found her forever home 🥰)

Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

Helen Chu is the hero who revealed that—contra daily briefings from the White House—COVID was spreading widely in the community in the US by late February 2020..

BALDWIN: What is the authority that the administration is using to deploy active duty Marines to California neighborhoods? HEGSETH: The president has constitutional authority BALDWIN: Cite the provision of the Constitution HEGSETH: I'd have to pull up the specific provision

So, if true, Cursor alone adds one billion(!) lines of code per day(!). How can anyone deduct from this numbers that expertise in coding will be of less demand in the future? Like, robots build cars but you will still need a repair shop. officechai.com/ai/cursor-is...

Spend no more than ARPU/25 for CPC because: LTV ≈ ARPU × 20 months, CAC ≤ LTV/5, 1% CPC rate. Not obvious from that summary, but the article explains, and shows you how to input your own numbers:

Rewording my earlier post. RFK Jr will be testifying before Congress. I am interested in what experts and others think would be the best way to leverage this time and opportunity for the public good. If you were behind the dais for this hearing, what would you do? What do you want to see asked?

Hey! Lookie what PUNCH (@punch-mission.bsky.social) just saw! Two different solar storms crossing the entire inner solar system! NASA's site doesn't thumbnail well, so click the link for the movie and other images. ☀️🔭🛰️🧪 science.nasa.gov/blogs/punch/...

I decided to respond to Glyph's LLM criticism. lucumr.pocoo.org/2025/6/10/ge...

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Los Angeles a “city of criminals” and not a city of immigrants. But like its name, Los Angeles is a city of angels. We protect and look out for one another, especially the most vulnerable.

This tiny device can shrink dangerous blood clots. It’s called the ‘milli-spinner’ and its invention was partly an accident…

Tbh it's pretty clear when you see it in this country, too. And this is only like 5% of the list of symptoms we've seen so far

I was told @outseta.com was "dead" when Stripe launched Stripe Billing. When Webflow launched memberships. When Circle launched paywalls. When vibe coding took off. The reality? Each only accelerated our growth. Big competitors drive awareness, expand the market—and pay for it.

"An incompetent warning shot or the act of a coward, either way it needs to be properly investigated... how is it okay for your police force to be firing at unarmed Australian journalists?" Karl Stefanovic, an anchor for the Australian broadcast channel that @laurentomasi.bsky.social works for.

One of the less convincing parts of Hobbes’ political philosophy is the claim that the absolute sovereign would treat the people well as their prosperity is in the sovereign’s interests. Assumes that the sovereign takes a long term view rather than will grab everything while the chance is there.

I honestly can't remember a point in my lifetime where there was this much evil on display from this many people. 2020 wasn't like this, the first Trump term wasn't like this, 2016 wasn't like this. The GFC wasn't like this, the Bush years weren't like this. 2025 is a moral and cultural low point.

The "woke mind virus" is real -- it affects extremely online right-wingers and causes them to believe that pronouns represent an existential threat to Western civilization I don't think I've ever seen the terms "woke" or "wokeness" mentioned outside of some absolutely demented far-right fever dream

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

Damn, my own bot poached my image before I was able to post it 😆
