The difference between young adulthood and adulthood is having 10x more money but feeling a pang of anxiety when you see a pack of toilet paper being 4.19 instead of 3.69 last month.

Some people talk and explain things more to LLMs than people and wonder why people don’t understand them as well.

A dev messaged me saying I need to write about this awesome workflow they now use w a tool called Gerrit (open source) called "stacking" (also referred to as patch-based approach.)
This workflow is SO good. Did a deepdive on it about a year back:

At some point we'll need "psychotherapy" for LLMs, especially ones that have long term memory and at some point stop working.
You won't want a blank slate and start over, but you still want it to work again.

Thinking about people who grew up with digital-mediated social/media/anything (Gen-Z / Alpha), I'm wondering if it's better or worse for them?
I recall a study (can't find it now) finding that no social media use is also correlated with higher anxiety in teenagers. It's a U-curve.

With digital media, I can't feel empathy; I can't understand the other person.
It's completely different for me interacting with the same person on the phone vs in person.
Isn't it ironic, that I work on the web and that's causing this internal disharmony in me?

Back to the good old days of the early 2000s?
it’s like if RSS was signed typed JSON and we had a common contract for aggregating RSS, and that’s how all apps worked

In case you missed it: Bluesky runs on-prem. They migrated off of AWS months back.
So yeah, they DO need to put orders in for servers! (Good luck to the dev team!)

I have forgotten HTML after a decade of JS-focused frontends. TIL (again) that removing elements that start requests, e.g. forms, will cause those requests to be cancelled 🙈

Programming computers via code or LLM is hard?
Have you tried programming humans?
Shallow and short-lived stacks; tiny and easily corruptible working memory; low bandwidth inputs…

The business does assign value to your work, in the most generic way possible, they tend to believe thousands of other people could do the same job, which is why the pay range isn't very wide. I tend to value myself, and my work, more than HR does, which requires me to prove it.
Not that I disagree with you, but one thing that’s always gave me pause is: shouldn’t the business already *know* the value of your work? They’re the ones assigning it, after all, aren’t they?
