2 things for me in a leadership role:

1. Get code written in shorter focus blocks between meetings. Having the context of a chat retained makes it easier to pick back up

2. "one-off" manual tasks that weren't worth writing a script to automate are now worth asking Cursor/etc. to take a shot at

Ever since I first played Balatro I keep hearing its soundtrack in the background of my mind at all times. What a game.

Whether the people in VA take the seal seriously, I have no idea. I hope so

The symbolism is the headline, but I also appreciate how straightforward it is. Lots of flags are pretty much color combos or seals without clear meaning.

And as far as I can tell it's accurate en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_an...
