The only winning move is not to play. Or save yourself by answering some gibberish.

I mean, "Give us money or we'll sue you and sic our rabid user base on you" is certainly a clear statement of the value prop for advertising on Twitter, you have to give them that. No marketing BS here, no sir...
Drug discovery is critical, but so hard. And I wouldn't be working for @valence_ai if I didn't believe ML could play an outsized role in making it easier. But how do we know we're on the right path? By having a North Star to steer by. It's been a great privilege to work on this.
1/ 🚀Today, we’re excited to launch Polaris! 🚀 Polaris is a platform where the ML community working on drug discovery problems can easily share and access datasets and benchmarks. Get started with just a few lines of code: polarishub.io
Do you have something else also set to IRQ 5?

1- Refactoring is the inevitable outcome of humans designing a system. 2- Refactoring is an exercise in humans designing a system.
You Ship Too Tough. Your Design Too Different. Your Rust Is Too Bad. They’ll Kill You.
We rewrote Ruff's language server in Rust, and built it into Ruff directly. `ruff server` is now in Beta. Enable it in the VS Code extension today via the "Native Server" setting.
It's hard to imagine, but before ICQ, going online was a solitary activity. Every interaction was asynchronous: web, newsgroups, email... ICQ was the first time it felt like other people were there with you, at the same time, seeing the same things, living the same reality.
We'll Miss You: Pioneering instant messaging program ICQ is finally shutting down after nearly 30 years. trib.al/zDgzW8z
Great thread that succinctly recaps what it feels like to work with Suspense in React, at least for me. The benefits are nice, but it feels clunky that the parent needs to know about the children component's behavior.
React Suspense…. We need to talk. Or Konstantin rants about Suspense, part 1 🧵🧵🧵
I make heavy use of color bars in the file gutter indicating Git diffs, with contextual pop-up showing the diff and actions (revert, copy etc.) I missed these too much and went back to PyCharm.
If you tried Zed before but then stopped using it, what made you stop? Hit me with everything you got.
The cryptography lib in Python puts its primitives under a module literally called "hazmat", and I think that's the kind of vibe you want for them.
> SubtleCrypto [is] named subtle to warn devs that crypto algorithms have sophisticated usage requirements that must be strictly followed "subtle" should really have a scarier sounding name. DangerousCryptoPrimitives. CrudeCrypto. DoNotTouchUnlessYouKnowWhatYoureDoingCrypto
The Conda folks will tell you it's so much easier to use than pip. Then they have you pick and manually install one of four possible apps, that all have almost, but not quite, the same CLI commands, and point it at one humongous release channel that has all the packages, anyway.
I love installing anaconda because now there’s 3 diff pythons on my computer and they’re all broken
Introducing SAFE, Sequential Attachment-based Fragment Embedding, a novel molecular line notation that redefines molecular design tasks as simple autoregressive sequence generation. 🧵
Valence Labs will be co-hosting a TechBio social with @recursionpharma and @nvidia at #NeurIPS. Join us on Wed, Dec 13th. RSVP here: lu.ma/5wx660v2 Our team will also be at #NeurIPS throughout the week. See below for a summary of our papers👇
Fun fact : the JavaScript engine of the Mac version was built by a different team than the Windows version, so it behaved differently in some cases. You needed fancy user agent parsing to handle it.
How has nobody done a “History of Internet Explorer on Mac” video??
So you're going to put $300 millions worth of highly sought-after GPUs on a boat, out in international water, and brand it a sovereign nation state. If you think your "kinetic risk mitigation" can stop what's coming for you, you truly are "An Alternate Reality Corporation"...

I sincerely don't care, as long as your documentation is clear and explicit on the inputs your endpoint expects from me and the outputs it will send back my way. But so help me God, if you send me a 200 status code with an error response, I will end you.
/reservation/{id}/ If I cancel a reservation, is that a DELETE? What if it just puts the reservation in a cancelled state? Maybe it's PATCH… or PUT? Or: POST /reservation/{id}/cancel
My dude, I'm going to blow your mind... There's this framework now, for JS, that let's you build reactive components. You define how your UI should be based on state, and when the state changes, the UI updates. Check this out : backbonejs.org
If I were building a full stack app today I’d use jQuery, jQueryUI, SystemJS, and Express.
GitHub Actions won because the alternative in most orgs isn't some slick, modern purpose built SaaS. It's going to be a Jenkins pipeline.
That so many of us are using GitHub Actions instead of a purpose-built product for CI/CD tooling is a testament to how massive distribution can cause an okay-ish tool to take huge market share from much better ones.
And even that is a stretch. Cloud Spanner supports PostgreSQL in all the ways that do not matter. The one way anyone actually cares about (connecting your app to a DB using existing PG clients) requires you to deploy, run and scale an adapter service on the side.
If you want to smack @awscloud's DynamoDB, talk about how Cloud Spanner supports a PostgreSQL interaction model rather than its own bespoke API from the Great Depression. Talk about customers. Talk about anything other than "we're cheaper than the competitor we will namecheck."
