Me to my boss: so yeah, basically, it’s non-performant not because I’m bad at coding, but because I’m trying to save the world

This was my happy place.

Costco FTW!

Delta dropping its partnership with Lyft and then replacing it with Uber is not good for me and many others who hear from drivers that Lyft treats them better than Uber. That's not cool, @Delta.

Hachyderm FTW!

What a great interview! @gergely.pragmaticengineer.com and @mipsytipsy.bsky.social discuss observability issues that even I have encountered, and they break them down very clearly like cost, complexity and pitfalls. I highly recommend watching this to the end.

I'm an immigrant & Lawful Permanent Resident, and father of two U.S. citizens. One of the things I always admired about this country is its unambiguous birthright citizenship—a key reason why America remains more energetic and dynamic than Europe. Now in question: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Out of all social media platform feeds, LinkedIn’s feed has to be the shittiest.

This song is absolutely genius! youtube.com/watch?v=6v_R...

I don't get the appeal of Rednote. I've never joined TikTok, so maybe I don't see the point of sharing my data with a Chinese company. I'd instead share it with Meta. 🙃

That name lives in infamy and conspiracy.

Say what you want, but I don't see it! 😬

Good software engineering is about encapsulating complexity while avoiding hiding away failure modes.

Gravitational Lensing is mind-blowing!

Unlike you, I get my news from a reliable source.

I think what's going to keep me sane this year, considering, well, *points in all directions*, is remembering Hanlon's Razor (summed up by the brilliant @sketchplanations.bsky.social )- because it's also a reminder that other people are capable of being as unthinkingly idiotic as I too-often am.

Finally an answer! Thank you!

Is Kubernetes Complex? Yes. Why? Because a does a lot of things under the hood to provide flexibility in for a lot usecases. Its not that you cannot do it with Kubernetes, but you will run into so many issues and complexities and Kubernetes has already addresses.

LA. Please stay safe today. This app has been very helpful. And, get a bag ready to go in case things escalate in your area. And, FYI Planet Fitness is offering free access to their showers, wifi, and charging stations. app.watchduty.org

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.

My message to Zuck

good morning and welcome to 2025

EXCLUSIVE: 200+ Government of India websites have been hacked! From Google, they now redirect to vc66 [dot] net, a domain registered on Dec 21, 2024. Its an online money-making scam but links to malware—an attack called SERP hijacking. Search [site:*.gov.in fast cash] to see.

Sharing a longer note I posted on substack. www.vogue.in/content/how-...

Okay, I spoke too soon. The game is still fun but gets annoying way too often. It has input lag issues in performance mode, making difficult fights impossible. The lore is unclear, and I have no idea who the different characters are. (1)

I think Jason Momoa’s Lobo would outshine Aquaman!

I had been holding back on playing Black Myth: Wukong. I picked it up last night and cannot put it down! I don't know what took me so long. It's a great game!

Absolutely not.

Finally got have my post ready for Chezmoi - anshumantripathi.com/blog/managin.... This is a living post - I'll keep updating it as I explore more Chezmoi features! Also, peek at my dotfiles repo if you're curious: github.com/AnshumanTrip...

It's all funny and whatnot, but the mass of a black hole the size of a hydrogen atom would be ~ 3.6 x 10^16 kilograms. Think about it, it is the mass of a large asteroid packed into something so small we cant even see. I’m pretty sure it will kill everyone around it. So yeah…. this is false.

I noticed this once when I could easily find a coupon code when Honey said it could not find one. After that, I stopped using it. I never knew it was this bad, though.
