Code that works at a point in time is mostly uninteresting. What matters is building structures to ensure code stays correct over time. That to me is the essence of engineering in software

It’s funny because it’s uh… bigger than, you know… a normal hat

Wanna see my smilin’ face illustrating a culture-war opinion piece on page 27 of the Rolling Stone

Left positive comments about the new confraflow bike lane in my neighborhood on the city FB post about it, and a bike lane hater with a motorcycle profile banner image told me to “be careful” going “the wrong way down the street”

Parker Lewis Can’t Lose, and it’s not close

Everyone’s sharing their opinions about data centers, meanwhile no-one is paying attention to the data crust

A fundamental problem with "oh it's useful for coding" is that "generating more software faster" has, if anything, negative marginal utility in itself. The world is not suffering from a software shortage. The world is suffering from a software quality crisis, which LLMs seem more likely to worsen.

“It’s wrong. All of it. The Senate needs to pass the House-approved 3 year TPS extension for Haitian refugees. Immediately.” — @repgreglandsman.bsky.social, who is tracking this stuff, says to @zeteo.com today

Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, and Linda Ronstadt singing Neil Young’s “After the Gold Rush” on Letterman in 1999, accompanied by piano, synthesizer, and glass armonica. “Look at Mother Nature on the run in the 21st Century.”

The only thing worse than living in unprecedented times is discovering the times are actually highly precedented

The most crucial part in each "AI Winter," & the thing that I genuinely think cannot come soon enough, is when we as a culture remember that we're able to disambiguate the term "AI" & we go back to actually descriptively naming the process(es) we mean. Really can't wait for that to come around again

Me: I *won* overthinking, actually, if you think about it therapist: we talked about this Me: OK, but I *did* win, right??

look, as someone who has literally attended a microbrew meetup on a pirate ship, I don’t know where anyone would get the idea that it would be a sad scene. it’s obviously a rip-roaring, jolly time

I wonder if the people losing their minds over NYC-run grocery stores know about New Hampshire state liquor stores.

It’s going to be something when US ratification of Geneva I & II and signing the ICC treaty becomes a condition of peace talks

Our age of bronzer is ending

*standing up on the plane* Wonder was the grace of the country. Any action could be justified by that: the wonder it was rooted in. Period followed period, and finally the wonder was that things could be built so big. Bridges, skyscrapers, fortunes, all having a life first in the marketplace…

we are absolutely missing a critical culture right now, it's been subsumed by fandom, and reading a knowledgeable, high brow critique of a film like Emily Wilson wrote is just so *refreshing*

The racist backlash to Chris Nolan’s Odyssey is a kind of stolen valor, an attempt by the right to claim credit for achievements they had nothing to do with in order to justify racial hierarchy in the present. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
