Hey everyone!
My current gig might be wrapping up soon, so itโs time for me to figure out whatโs next.
If you or someone you know could use some help with software tools or systems โ architecture, implementation, deployment, operations, data pipelines, CD, DX, etc โย maybe get in touch? Iโve been doing this a while and Iโm pretty flexible.
Iโm open to short-term or long-term, part-time or full-time. Iโm US-based (NYC area) and a US citizen.

Model collapse has entered the generated chat.
Having a minor panic attack because Iโm not sure how many syllables are in the word โsquareโ โ reality is unraveling. Square square square.
My novel #TheTerraformers is on sale as an ebook across all platforms for $1.99 in the U.S. this week!!! Check it out here: https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250228062/theterraformers
I just got a washer/dryer installed my apartment, after 5+ months of using a shared machine in the basement. I am gonna do a shit-ton of laundry this week!
At this point Iโve heard a few different podcast interviews with financial therapists, but this is the best one yet. Not surprising โ Depresh Mode is one of the best audio shows โ *trailer voice* โ In The World.

I finally started the Children of Time series by Adrian Tchaikovsky. I accidentally started with the second book, Children of Memory, but it didnโt matter. The book worked well on its own. Really good too!

@nikitonsky Zed just went FLOSS and todayโs preview release adds support for Clojure LSP so Iโm trying it out.
I noticed that I find the text rendering more pleasant than Sublime Text, which Iโve been using recently with your REPL package (thx!).
Iโm no text/font expert though, so Iโm not sure whatโs different exactly or why I prefer the text in Zed.
I think I see two main differences: the text seems a bit lighter in terms of weight, and the line spacing seems more generous, so thereโs more breathing room. But I could definitely be mistaken or missing something.
Can you tell whatโs happening here? And do you know if itโd be possible to get my Sublime setup to match what Zed is doing?

ฮฒ22 is now available! You can finally push/pull branches from within Retconโbut not without a couple of twists.
First: pull whenever. Even with changes in your workdir; even in the middle of a conflict resolution. (maybe missing upstream commits are causing the conflict?)
Second, and much cooler: Easily, safely undo a branch push. Just hit โZ, and that typo never happened. Nothing to it!
Naughty Dog just released a documentary on the making of The Last of Us Part 2.
Wow. Paris just voted to triple the parking costs for SUVs.
A huge victory in the fight against car bloat.
We drove about 5000 miles in our Tesla last year and the total electrical (1413 kW) cost for us was less than $100. For the entire year. Incredible.
Coming soon to a website near you. โHow My Apple Vision Pro Became My Primary Computerโ. The harrowing tale of a dude who bought the latest Apple device and now just won't stop talking about it. From the minds that brought you โHow My iPad Pro Became My Primary Computer" and โWhat's a Computer?โ. Rated R for aRRRgh not again.
๐ Gather round while this oldie tells you of a time when browsing was fun. How did surfing become doomscrolling?
The incentives to put anything on the web continue to recede more and more.

I bought an electric cargo bike to ride around with my kids. They've outgrown it, but I still ride it everywhere. Literally life-changing. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2024/01/study-finds-that-once-people-use-cargo-bikes-they-like-their-cars-much-less/ #BikeTooter #CargoBike #Bullitt
Hoboken, NJ has gone seven consecutive years without a traffic fatality. They've also seen a significant reduction in injuries, with significant injuries down 62% between 2022 and 2023. This has been achieved largely by lowering speed limits and redesigning streets.
Masterfully written. Haunting.
