Got some of the N1 #Nerf toys for my son's birthday, and I was disappointed to see that these aren't the toys of my childhood. I remember battles behind couch cushions, with foam darts. These are more like real bullets, and they hurt. Maybe I'm just old but, this wasn't the fun I hoped it would be.

These pancake flat sprinter stages are a real slog. #TourdeFrance
I think they should do less of this sort of stages (Stage 3) and more punchy stuff (like Stage 2).
Everyone in the peloton knows its a sprint finish and it's like 180km with very little interest in the race other than the scenery.

Nasty crash, but not really anyone's fault. Just a victim of circumstances.
Thoughts and sympathy to Jasper Philipsen and team. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Classic corporate move to buy out Eurosport for the #TourDeFrance, charge users £30/mo to watch the race, and then kill the ad free stream.
This is why we can't have nice things, these broadcasting conglomerates are allowed to pay millions for exclusive rights, and then have to recoup their costs.

Nice take.
As someone who is/was an AI skeptic, I do think think these systems are useful, just like a text editor is useful for writing code, a tool that combined with judgement and effort. It is not a solution all by itself.
It will completely destroy a lot of developer jobs though.

Long overdue, languages should support a variety of development environments.
🥁 Last but not least, Kotlin is expanding to more development environments – starting with the official Kotlin Language Server Protocol (LSP) and a new Kotlin extension for Visual Studio Code.

In my mind, this is exactly the problem with current tech / founder / startup culture.
Airbnb already has its problem to solve, but somehow its not enough. This sort of expand our offering is such typical MBA non-sense.
Execute well. Stop trying to boil the ocean.

It is both awesome and completely insane that #sqlite is in the public domain.
The documentation is incredible. The performance? Incredible.
Oh, and just in case you need a full text search engine in your database with zero configuration, it's got that too. (FTS5)
And they give it away for free.
