Hahaha, that comment blew up more than I thought it would!

How will this work exactly? Will they be allowed to have others trade on their behalf?

I’ve been a Firefox user forever and it’s the best! I would be really sad if it were donezo :(

Is there a vaccine I can take that will give me autism? I don’t want to pay taxes.

How is it? I’ve always had positive experiences with jetbrains products.

This!! They’re all working around the limitations 💯%

I think they named it Cursor because after your vibe code generated slop gets written, you start cursing your entire way through trying to fix the issues it created

Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 13/04/2025
Hopefully the copilot folks come up with a better workflow than Cursor. They seem to be concerned with the programmer DX, which is great!

Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 13/04/2025
the developer doesn’t get to understand why those decisions were made. There are pros and cons to this, but I’d rather manually walk through the problem with copilot than have the LLM make decisions for me that I regret. 2/2

Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 13/04/2025
The writing/editing of code was never the roadblock for efficiency when writing code. It’s always been about how fast you can problem solve. Instead of truly understanding the options available for the problem you’re trying to solve, Cursor chooses for you and 1/2

Wait, footprint of which setup? Blazor app inside of a browser tab? Blazor web assembly?

Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
What is the foot print like? Loads of memory? 1GB? 😅

Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
Interesting. You can just put a web view in it and load up a Blazor app right?

I have. I’m trying to remember why I was hesitant with it. I’ll take another look

I’m having the toughest time picking a desktop framework to use for a trading app I want to build. I want it to be cross platform (mobile, web too), performant, and have access to great graphing libs. The best ones I’ve found are on .NET, but I’m looking at rust too. Anyone have recommendations?

If you were ever wondering what stock market manipulation looks like, look at what just happened with Trump’s recent pause on tariff announcement and look at the price of the stock market before and after.
030
Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 09/04/2025
Well the market just flew upwards because Trump just announced a 90 day pause on tariffs for all countries besides China. This might end up being a man made “v shape recovery”. I wonder how many of his billionaire buddies knew he was going to do this.

Anyway with these AI coding experiments I’ve been doing, it’s good to know my skepticism isn’t simply just being old and cranky for the sake of being old and cranky: my instincts (that they’re being oversold by people who have incentives to do so) is still correct

They’re not that different, but I do like what OpenAI decided to instead of using websockets, which was server sent events. Under the hood, SSE does work similar to websockets, but disabling writes keeps your REST api relevant and you reserve real time data for incoming events.

Lance Carlson @lancecarlson.bsky.social · 06/04/2025
This is the way.

We still have a lot of room to fall in the stock market and we have no signs that we won’t continue going down for the foreseeable future. (Nothing has changed). Prepare accordingly. I won’t be selling, but I won’t be buying yet either.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
Full of people down 5th avenue, view from 39th Street.

Can a president be impeached for making the stock market crash?

Last night it dropped hard again. Is this the only president that actively tries to ruin the stock market?

It went down even more today 😅
