Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

I swear we are losing braincells to capitalism by the minute. Self-reflection and self-criticism are becoming increasingly scarce.

The Science Finally Catches Up: New Research Confirms ADHD as an Evolutionary Advantage, Not a Disease
For over three decades, I’ve been saying what the medical establishment didn’t want to hear: ADHD isn’t a disease, disorder, or defect.

There's an old russian parable: "God offered a man to wish for anything, but his neighbour will get twice as much. The man said - oh Lord, please take my eye". Let that sink in before you think you understand ruzzists.

And at a certain point, like. I am going to have to look at my kids and be like, we probably could have a bigger house, I could take more time off, I could take a vacation, I could retire one day, if I just decided to scam a bunch of people. But I'm not going to

Everyone seems to laugh about the GenAI generated maps, but just try and extrapolate the quality of maps to the quality of text answers (and even more so - code) that GenAI produces.

On Palm Sunday, russian missiles struck the city center of Sumy. Local authorities report numerous dead and injured. This is despicable. Witkoff should be proud of the “peace” his negotiations enable.

Remember kids: giving someone you committed to protect 30 years ago $350B to defend themselves is bad, but starting a tariff war with the world and wiping $2,5T from your own market in a single day is how you make your country great again.

Remote work is organisations' Great Filter. Those who embrace it will get the most engaged and empathetic employees that will reach unbeliveable heights. Those who reject it will eventually turn into snake pits full of people micromanaging and interruptimg others, decline and go out of business.

Losing you s**t over spending 0.25% (more like 0.08% if you live in reality) of GDP to help someone you committed helping in 1994 while inflation eats 2.9.% of it every year and people protesting your product wipe eight times the amount from your stonks is peak egg-price-driven politics.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

I've chosen to avoid this wave of AI altogether. I'm not interested in becoming one with the machine. If they are willing to spend time and money training artificial intelligence, why wouldn't I do the same for the real thing.

Remember kids - pair programming is controversial: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme....
But only if you do it with another human. Pair programming with GenAI LLM for $200/mo is good.
