insanely underrated that after 10y I can still open a rails codebase and know where everything is.

full db schema
all routes
controllers models

all the generators and migration scripts still work.

I sparred 12 full rounds yesterday on oculus quest 2.

incredibly cathartic experience, emotional man.

I quit sparring after I had a concussion 7y ago but I still train hard cause I love the sport, now I can fight again.

Thrill of the fight 2 added networked multiplayer in their latest beta, it’s really good, and most of the people playing are fighters, you can tell by their movements. Incredible.

Parenting

we need to study why counting to 5 completely disarms a kid when nothing else works.

I’ve reproduced this under extreme conditions and many negotiation strategies.

i know we all gave up on voice thanks to a decade of siri but it can be great ux

for ex: compare the cognitive load using self checkout vs ordering from a human

the latter is far easier – declarative and direct, zero eye hand coordination or ui to understand

bun will include a redis module.

jarred keeps making pragmatic & contrarian choices for a runtime.

js eco is weird, we have fat runtimes and thin frameworks

def some “software content creator” opportunities out there.

short experiments or viral apps using new apis, make all code open source and explained.

kinda like dev rel but less demo and more short experiences with viral mechanics and not stuck with one company’s apis.

Less “talking about software” like theo or prime gen and more building small, complete artifacts you can play with.

lots of ways to monetize: using sponsored apis in an app, ads, direct thru any app built, etc at worst you build distro and public good will and recognition to get any gig.

Damn shame openai couldn’t do the ico sam wanted to.

All things equal could have been one of the defining catalysts for crypto. Aligns well with their original mission and silver lining for the masses getting disrupted.

Instead they have a 300b private eval.

I’m learning python after 10y of javascript and taking some notes

my personal check list when I feel irritable.

1. Did you drink water in the last 36h?
2. Did you eat today?
3. Did you workout this week?
5. Do you need a haircut?
6. Is your beard itchy?
7. Did you write in the last 2 weeks?

works everytime.

this is precisely my biggest feud with the schooling system here

i was quite good at math throughout my studies and thought how great for me... only too late have i realized i was good at it precisely because i was always certain there's a correct solution, it's reachable (because it was designed that way) and my only job was to find it. so i did (mostly)

real life, though, consists of problems you don't even know about. if you do, the solution space is not known. if it is, you have no idea if it's within your skillset. and if it is and you know it, solving it is not even rewarding... so, exactly as you write, you have to fall back to intuition—granted, solving "easy" school problems helps you sharpen it, but the general consensus i see is "educated people are smarter, intuition is not scientific" and it pisses me off so much.
