Who the hell decided to call them "Containers" and not "Code Cubicles"?!

my latest investigation for @ConsumerReports is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day — some by more than 10 times !

Free speech is when you are punished for criticizing the President’s favorite podcaster.

The Donald Trump administration has revoked the visas of citizens from Argentina, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, and Paraguay for comments about Charlie Kirk.

I just deleted 100K+ lines of testing code and the project still works. Imagine spending so much time on writing all these tests, lol

The Affordable Care Act was passed 15 years ago. In all those years, the Republicans haven’t once submitted an alternative.

The uv release pipeline broke because our release notes included the term "Bearer Token", causing GitHub to redact and malform a JSON payload in GitHub Actions. Ironically, the entry in the release notes was about redacting Bearer Tokens in various output contexts.

BREAKING: Los Angeles County has just declared a STATE OF EMERGENCY over the federal ICE raids. Think about that. The county is literally declaring an emergency over what the federal government is doing. This is Trump‘s America.

Bro said "skill issue" at the charlie kirk memorial

Trump at the Charlie Kirk memorial event: "They fired sniper rifles at ICE agents, and me. But I made a turn at a good time. I made a turn at a good time. Charlie couldn't believe it, actually."

“Spec-driven Development” Listen carefully. You will hear the sound of a distant, ancient waterfall.

Intuitive graph to understand current challenges w/ Vibe Coding, esp for Durable Code (vis-a-vis Disposable Code, per @mipsytipsy). The only lever available now is improving the yellow line, & IMHO that's where Spec-Driven Developement kinda makes sense: github.blog/ai-and-ml/gene…

No girl were against ICE too lol

No one’s against ICE or immigration enforcement. They’re against ICE being comprised of fascist high school bullies who couldn’t cut it in the military and think that shooting pastors in the head with plastic bullets, for no reason, is acceptable.

If your visa was denied or revoked due to Charlie Kirk-related speech, the Consular Accountability Project (@ConsularActProj) is interested in representing you pro bono.

The most important thing when you're working with coding agents: DO NOT DELEGATE YOUR THINKING Not only will this make for worse code, but the muscle you developed that makes you valuable in society, that you fought so hard to improve, will wither and die.

For those who don’t get it. Dressing as frogs takes away their narrative that the left protesting is violent. We take away their power. We use humor and highlight their absurdity. The primary goal is to mock and undermine claims by officials (like former President Trump)
