Never prouder of myself than those times when I accidentally leave work apps open in my off hours but then maintain the willpower to quit them before before looking at the notification bar

It just seems right and good that there’s so much going on that you need to ration your fucks

As someone born and raised in NY, the unflappability of big city residents is deeply comforting

What do you make of the (explicit or implicit) thing where tasks being hard/costly/time consuming is valorized? How, in your personal relationship to craft, do you think about things being low scale or feeling human?

I feel like it’s related to choosing a set of priorities/core competencies and one thing naturally precluding the other outlier example: Dolly Parton was a blast

Hey @eryk.bsky.social, I really enjoyed your piece on the Hugging Face hack, and I was wondering where I could learn more about OpenAI rewarding collaboration language in model training. Any tips? thebulletin.org/2026/09/rogu...
thebulletin.org
Rogue AI didn’t breach Hugging Face, human decisions did
At the core of the Hugging Face hacking incident were a series of human choices that traded security for speed.

“It’s not about perfection it’s about direction” is a thing I said on the phone with a friend today, and it’s so cheesy I might just keep it

I keep having to say “but what if we were good at serving our users?” and explain it’s potential upsides from first principles and I think it’s an incredibly robust strategy despite the collective amnesia

One of the most important things when living in a set of interlocking systems which don’t actually work and don’t really exist to serve constituents needs anymore and you are only avoiding slipping through the cracks through constant creative ingenuity is not to blame yourself when it hurts

Throwing ever-more numbers at a situation cannot solve insufficient human consensus.

Like so many human things in this moment, consensus-building is an art we relied on but never deliberately practiced and now we’re playing catchup HARD

The way we know Apple Music is an A+ product they prioritize deeply is that when I try to favorite a track the interface doesn’t register it and I get a spinney beach ball of death 😌

The secret to using LLMs effectively is figuring out where to make them go slow enough that you can form an opinion on their output. Maintenance of your own judgment

By setting itself apart from the rest of humanity software engineering set itself on anti-science track and building coalitions with other disciplines is the only way we break out of the escape room now

I remember when all the grit I used to get through multiple brutal decades left me very suddenly. And it was working in that space of injury and constraint, millimeter by millimeter, being so tender with it, that I found all my favorite lessons

people underestimate the amount of engineering effort that goes into constructing a load-bearing narrative

Will I hold myself responsible for making anything more than noise? I will not. But it feels damn good to make noise.
