In the run up to the purchase every Twitter employee learned three facts: 1. The definition of Fiduciary Responsibility. 2. The role of the Delaware Court of the Chancellery. 3. Jason Calacanis is phenomenally stupid and pathetic.

Fair enough, bluesky ethos and all, but legit man what do you want out of these sneak preview screenshots if not people engaging with them?

It feels sort of reasonable to read and react to the promo piece you posted to advertise, yeah? There’s a really easy way to make sure no one reacts to the piece before it’s done again if that bothers you!

Ed man I get you get a lot of heat on social media so its easy to assume everyone is defensive and mad ai bros all the time but you’re off target on this one.

Well cool you might want to include that in your piece then instead of saying “the app and the site” if you have those numbers. Its BANANAS how hard its being pushed in the software industry and it’d be great to have a reference to how much is talk and how much is real.

Yeah this doesn’t pass the sniff test for me if its meant to include GH Copilot. SO many software companies are buying IDE plugin licenses for all their engineers, often whether the engineer actually asks for it or not.

Do not let them repeal §230 because you think it will stick it to "Big Tech". Big Tech won't notice the difference: they WANT §230 gone because it means they'll never have to worry about another competitor surviving long enough to challenge them ever again.

It feels like kicking them while they’re down, but the Bills apparently went to FOUR super bowls in a row back in the 90s. They just, uh, lost every single one of them.

If you board the plane early and don’t need an overhead bin, you are just irrationally competing to spend *more time sitting on a seat on an airplane*

Wow, I can’t believe you’d just post out that you hate bluesky users like that. Smh blocked.

I feel for anyone graduating in CS right now, it’s _rough_, but if you’ve got a few years experience there’s a very strong sense that this stuff is basically fancy autocomplete and anyone claiming “AI SWEs” are grifters. Vs artists where the impact is already visceral and obvious.

One key thing is that most software devs that use copilot or chatgpt to generate code immediately realize that it can’t replace us, actually. I use genai regularly for various menial tasks and boilerplate generation, but those are the easy parts and definitely not why they hired me vs an intern.

Dad reflexes are one of nature’s little ways of keeping children alive long enough to develop a survival instinct.

This may or may not be a bit but I can’t tell because I distinctly remember successfully peer pressuring you in to eating Pupperoni.

He’s exactly the same as 2004, which is the problem. His everybody-calm-down/the-truth-is-in-the-middle schtick was fine for post-9/11 America, but absurd and hackneyed 20 years later in the Trump era. Like if South Park was still doing the douche/turd sandwich bit now.

Huge respect to you and yours keeping the backend chugging along through it!

I love never having to hand-write cron expressions or regexes anymore but I’m not sure I’d be willing to pay what it will cost once OpenAI stops burning VC money and rainforests to give it to me for cheap!
