I met a youngster on Boca del Toro island in Panama a decade or so ago. I was about to be fired from my FAANG job so I used up years and years of vacation for one big trip before I was let go. We hung out for a few days while I was there (I

I’m near that magic number age with a few million but I also have health issues and I’m terrified all of it will be spent on treatment because of how the USA is being governed into flames by the current corrupt administration. It never ends

You can set billing alerts and write a lambda function to respond and disable resources. Of course they don’t make it easy but if you don’t learn how to use limits what do you expect? This argument amazes me. Cloud services require some deg

The first thing I did when I signed up for Claude was have it analyze my website for security holes. But it only recommended superficial changes, like the lifecycle of my JWTs. After reading this, I’m wondering if a prompt asking it to atta

There’s the problem. It wasn’t a political ad for Al Gore, it was published 8 years before he ran. It just so happened he was actually interested in improving things and leaning on smarter people for policy, but that made half the country g

And did you stick around to see what happens after they go full tabula rasa? I have: they fall so far behind they close up shop. The proper response is to move slowly and intentionally and use indicators. Like ‘design thinking’, with protot

That’s a good way to put it. I hadn’t realized how gamified it has become. I originally felt like Claude and I were a team, but it goes off the rails so much that I find myself pulling the lever with increasing febrility. Fortunately I’m ol

I’ve played around with this (the KIT-CSK-BGT60TR13C). It is a very interesting gadget and the kit doesn’t need much configuration. In an afternoon I made a car detector for my bike that detects the presence of an approaching car from behin

How dare this person take `mwm`!!! I have been using mwm (MOTIF) since 1991. Exact same configuration. It’s the perfect wm in my opinion. I’ve tried every major wm since, and I just can’t quit it. I do everything on the commandline, so I do

Intel was ~20k when I started in 1988. When we started to flirt with 100k in 1999~2004 there were so many senior people complaining what it would do to bonuses and raises and revenue… everyone started getting the executive bonus and stock o

Funny growing up in the 70s and 80s watching the Moral Majority lose their collective shit over Black Sabbath. Satanic panic was real: I had to hide my records from my dad and only play them when he wasn’t home. I still prefer Dio but ozzy
