This is a good post, thanks for sharing.

pcap mostly because we ran Linux which had no good tracing at the time.

Onavo. Monetizing outrage.

Wrapping these episodes up into small shows like this is really great. I had missed a bunch of them in the main feed. Perhaps this was @whysophiewhy.bsky.social ‘s idea. Either way, good.

Nuked twice for some reason

I haven’t seen AI taking programming jobs yet. Maybe it will. Or maybe it’ll be a tool that any effective programmer needs to use.

I love how Scott challenged the hosts about trolling. I agree with Scott. Kantian Imperative, etc.

Yes, remarkably bad.

It really is remarkable how little we pay for meat.

After that speaker the next guy brings up an interesting point about Wisconsin’s general tax exemption for all DCs.

Lots of things were contested in this video, and I hope I’m pronouncing that correctly.

I always think tick tock, Mr Wick, but Maxwell Keeper is a gem.

This is me after a few beers.

I guess all it takes is one point they disagree with and bam, instant 1 star.

Thanks for telling these stories.

Also true with sports cars. And also fine.

So many times these guys fantasize in public about spankings.

Using LLMs effectively in a software engineering job is a skill we are all still developing. Some folks have really advanced techniques with multiple LLMs, and I don’t know what else to call this other than a new type of programming.

Oh I agree. Sadly the mobile web is mostly unusable now without an AI to cut through the ads and promos and special offers and pre roll videos and whatever else that’s there instead of content.

Many programmers find LLMs to be very useful, even if they are sometimes wrong. The tool helps them do their job. Like any tool you need to learn how to use it effectively.
