I try to learn everything. Views hopefully my own. Nerd (PL, Rust, security, AI, systems, …). Leftist. Covid conscious. AuDHD (probably). YIMBY. Free Palestine.
As much as I dislike xitter, folks like @amasad.bsky.social and others have been posting migration guides there and it does seem like it’s having some effect. Which I’m glad to see.
(Happy to share the links here!)

Is this also kinda bimodal? The top engineers seem to be able to nab fully remote positions while others get forced back into the office

Thanks for sharing, this resonated a lot with me. I was a huge hater, still am in some forms but I’ve come around. It’s hard to find reasoned discourse about AI (too many people with vested interests in either direction) and this was a breath of fresh air. Hoping to see better discourse.

Isn’t part of the problem that we only have 2 parties?

I did this in a work context before (when I felt I did nothing and it bummed me out); will definitely have to try it out in this context, thank you! This is fascinating to me — do you have any links handy that explain the science? (Can look them up so no worries)

Why should I as a reader read your stuff?
It’s a disservice and thus I refuse to write with AI.
Also, in a similar vein - I think and gather my thoughts by writing them out. If I’m not thinking, then who am I?

I really liked this - thank you for sharing. I do use AI in a number of places but as I mentioned in a past post - writing is sacred to me. I don’t get people who outsource their writing to AI…
Use it for feedback/critiques? Sure.
Use it for writing? Nah. If you can’t be bothered to write it..

I felt this one in my bones - it’s so so true

Looks like I finally need to read it.
My thought reading the excerpt was that it’s either fully true or the author has mental illness and made the whole thing up; because I cannot fathom an in between.
(And I’ve been leaning towards it being true)

I first read the headline only and misread it as “used” and figured it was a fair complaint …
Who the hell complains about an *unused* tampon?
(My prior employer used to have pads and tampons in the men’s rooms and I appreciated it, and their recent removal sucked)

I unfortunately can’t see the full thread anymore (due to the block) but the (imo valid) critique is: why focus on Obama and not [insert many other active politicians too]?

I’ve just skimmed this convo and the perspective here seems off, sorry - but even with the argument as written - why focus on Obama specifically (or Black people in general) while excusing all the people that *did* vote for fascism? Or the non black people that didn’t vote against?

This is ghoulish. I mean, at least pretend to care about the innocent?!

I used to work for a company that had DoD grants and this will be devastating. Also for university science funding given the trickle down.
