Modern data libraries like pola.rs is so cool! What would be 100s of lines of code in a regular imperative language condense down to just a few lines of terse joins and aggregates.

How is EE still in business? They have not been able to make a functional website for at least the last 8 years.

You are once again very wrong if you think black people in the US are the only people facing discrimination and abuse. It’s naive of you to completely dismiss the concerns of a disabled white woman elsewhere in this thread just because she is white. Why does it feel like you have barely seen the 🌍?

Bryan this is an incredibly dumb take. You can very well consider someone calling for ethnic clensing to be as bad as the people doing it. You don’t have to wait for someone to do actual damage on the street before calling it out. Read the room and show some empathy.

I wonder if Google Cocs' shitty APIs and mediocrea integration with LLMs will be the nail in the coffin that kills it for engineering teams.

to me

Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

I'm a bit puzzled at the state k8s clients. The 2 largest (by GH 🌟s) Python clients are pretty disappointing when you read the code. The Ruby client was last updated ~5y ago. The JS client has badges in README.md that links to 404 pages. Are people really not writing anything other than Go?

Besides the effects on the tech industry, right now there are H-1B holders—people—who built a life in the US. If they are traveling, they have 17 hours to get back to the US, or the life they built will be shattered and taken from them. Can you imagine constantly living with this uncertainty?
