- How do we notify the HBO person their integration test passed?
- I've decided to become a full-time individual contributor at HashiCorp and will no longer be an exec. This is something we've planned for years and I'm so happy HashiCorp is in a place to allow it to happen. Do what you love, not what others expect! ❤️
- I've developed a lot of plugin systems, and the OpenAI ChatGPT plugin interface might be the damn craziest and most impressive approach I've ever seen in computing in my entire life.
- This is going to be ironic coming from me but the best software engineers I've ever worked with and that you can ever hire are the ones with no online presence, no GitHub activity, and spent the last 10 years of their life working at the most boring company you can ever imagine.
- This is funny but I'm also so sorry to trigger this during a talk. This is making me wonder if I can reliably detect when the display is being mirrored and delay update notices... Thanks for using Ghostty, though!
- I can understand engineers who use Linux. I can understand engineers who use macOS. I really don’t understand engineers who use Windows (except windows app developers). By understand I mean I can see the value system they operate under. It just seems bad for non-Windows dev work
- Replying to @mitchellhI have a single friend in his late 30s right now. Mega-millionaire. Doing whatever he wants. He's happy! He always asks me "where are you going next" and I always respond "nowhere, I just want to be home with my kid." And he looks at me like I'm CRAZY. He tries to empathize, but
- I actually did crack my screen once but it was on purpose. Many years ago, my iPhone stopped charging. I took it to the Apple Store, they said they could repair it for free but I would be without a phone for 5 days. At that time in my life, I was in an airplane or anotherI’ve never cracked a phone screen (no case), I’ve never lost my keys, I’ve never misplaced AirPods, and my wallet is always exactly where it should be. I have a ton of flaws but you can’t take this achievement away from me. 😂
- Replying to @mitchellhFor those who aren't aware: you write an OpenAPI manifest for your API, use human language descriptions for everything, and that's it. You let the model figure out how to auth, chain calls, process data in between, format it for viewing, etc. There's absolutely zero glue code.
- Oh my god. I've been "debugging" why this file says "modified 2 years ago" on GitHub when it the last commit was Mar. 2020 thinking it was some Git metadata issue and I realized that Mar 2020 is now basically "2 years ago". Oh god.
- Ghostty on Reddit, there's a lesson in this. 🤣 "r/macOS": Neat, nice app. iTerm is nice too. I love choice. "r/linux": arguments about what "native" means, angry they have to click one link to learn what it is, disappointed that another terminal exists, 50-comment discussion
