On my life, I'll never get how a corp like @digitalocean.com reports $66m YTD operating income but won't pay the staff and writers of a publication they pledged to run out of the goodness of their hearts. No amount of "it's not creating sales" will cut it. investors.digitalocean.com/news/news-de...

What I wouldn't give for the @notion.com desktop app to add a split window view so I can open two tabs side-by-side. If a browser can do it, if VS Code can do it, why not this?

Idk dawg, I know this industry is big on moral flexibility and good at turning a blind eye to the political affiliations of leaders but it feels like openly calling for the extermination of an ethnic group should be a line in the sand

So, @jason.energy has talked about the agency and resources @clerk.com gave him to shoot @codetv.dev's Build Log series, but I did a double-take and checked at a map when I saw this episode because I thought "he got to shoot near the final boat scene of Miami Vice?!" www.youtube.com/watch?v=oY3W...

Be sure to use Al when making your next, I don't know, meal plan, for example. Definitely do not call your friend who loves to cook and ask her for her favorite recipes or tips or ways to save time making meals, because you will end
up talking for longer than you had hoped, hearing, perhaps, about her father's cancer diagnosis or how lonely she's been or even what she's planted in her spring garden and then lost with the early frost.

AT Proto might be my next rabbit hole. My quote won't show it, but click into @davidpierce.xyz's post below and you'll see something you might not expect if you're a recovering Twitter refugee: anchor text on a link. It blew me a way for a second. Did we get markdown in Bluesky?! No. Not quite.

People will say it's "Tech Week" here in NYC. Well, any event run by Andreessen Horowitz is illegitimate, because the NYC tech community has values, and one of its most fundamental is its humanity. They have forfeited theirs.

The corporate "invest in AI" narrative that's driving recent layoffs falls apart so quick under scrutiny. It's never been about AI replacing engineers. It's because their revenues and profits look better, and, oh, also, to look into AI. When I was at HPE, a whole department formed for just that.

My first dev job was with @tenetpartners.bsky.social, who I learned cut their entire leadership team's pay and deferred payments to senior staff to avoid layoffs before I joined. Given the immense valuations, and while I understand they don't always take a salary, why can't C-suites do this?

What software engineers build and create is not always the most glamorous, but it requires deep attention to detail to unseen things to make it work and feel good to use. I've heard it described akin to carpentry or baking, but I think this is also a great parallel. www.youtube.com/shorts/e4Plh...

The React Miami official photos are fantastic! Also, honest. If I'm going to keep up with the energy people bring to this and other confs, I need to get in better shape. I'd set out to do that last year to help my ADHD, and a layoff derailed that. T-1 year to get on point!
