Fun fact: this is not a pest control store but rather a venue for Dimes Square-esque performances and events

Oh snap, I wasn't in today, it's a rare day where we're all sort of everywhere. If you want to arrange a time to talk to someone / do a free trial day, hit me up at [email protected]

If anyone needs space for a FarCon event, we may be able to accommodate you at Fractal Tech. We have a warehouse space in Williamsburg with a pretty big open area, an adjacent cozy lounge, a kitchen, and a roof. http://fractaltechhub.com

He might have to drop the dream of clout universities and go to a real-ass school that will challenge him like the University of Puget Sound or Knox College

There are plenty of laws citywide that aren't really enforced. This is just another to add to the pile.

Maybe it should only be used for non-friends. Like when people used to give reddit awards for helpful posts. I'll prolly never use it at all though

Any LLM will not be nearly as good as free tax prep software.

Hex bar is so superior to straight bar I find it hard to go back

For me, the interests are just a bonus, while the culture and team matter the most. I'm luckily to work in an industry I love (sports), but I just as soon would manufacture stone pavers with my current team - we have the right combination and culture to make any industry fun.

I have my Twitter set up to only display posts from people I follow and turn retweets off. It's quite nice. https://liamrosen.com/2023/04/18/modding-social-media-to-win-the-attention-war/

That was the steepest temperature drop I can remember in my time living here! Around 4:30 I was biking up the West Side Highway with friends, showing skin, heated up. We jumped on the 1 to Van Cortlandt and when we got out of the train 30 minutes later it was freezing! Easily a 15-20 degree drop.

Believe it or not, it is rehabbed! It's an active shop and houses the New York Sign Museum! I took a tour there with my design club. The owners are super knowledgeable about signage. https://nysignmuseum.org/

The thing is, I'm not seeing strange engagement-hacking behavior here like I would on Tiktok or Instagram. If I look at the top 10 ranked accounts, they're all very chill!

I'm still trying to figure out the culture of Farcaster. It seems very laid back here. Shorter posts (despite a longer character limit!), more chill. People just posting about their day. Few seem to be worried about "making every post good". For this reason, casts get a lot more replies than other platforms. It feels more conversational. Also, the vibes are strongly wholesome and positive. Almost suspiciously so. How have I not seen someone seriously disagree with someone else yet!? It reminds me a bit of Something Awful's BYOB forum circa late 2000s. On the downside (for me), there seems to be a lack of serious intellectual rigor. Take the image below: not much new is being forged here, philosophically.

Can't believe people gave up craigslist for this. Insanity. The UI is actively hostile.
