Rum infused cold brew from 787 in East Village 🔥 🧊 Not a fan of the bag… and it was pricey… but very good bean juice

This inspired me to look more into the term “nerd snipe,” which I’ve known/used for a while despite never actually having read the xkcd. It did not disappoint.

I grew up thinking media was the rational voice: “This public announcement/story regarding person X or company Y is hyperbole. They’re exaggerating for attention. The truth is more tame — let us explain.” Now it’s somehow flipped.

+1 to paying for Snipd I was an early adopter so feel some loyalty, plus got a great annual membership discount. Love being able to capture moments from episodes I want to remember. And having transcripts / autogenerated chapters is huge (tbf there are prob other players that also do this)

friends of /books what’s the best strategy for determining which translation of a non-English book to read? Thinking Russian lit, classic Greek philosophy, etc.

Devin demo from Cognition is interesting (AI moving from copilot => pilot). Curious if this scales to “real” development or if it’s more for hackathons & side projects. Also makes me wonder if the future of infra is designing for use by agents rather than people https://www.cognition-labs.com/introducing-devin

devs didn’t design the language well, way too verbose and sacrifices efficiency for syntactic sugar

I hope so! But authoritarian regimes also probably have more “alignable” values (legible societies with quantifiable metrics that go up and to the right, with limited regard for the human consequences)
