#rustlang hot take: We should rename .unwrap() to .or_panic(). (And .expect() to .or_panic_with().) "Unwrap" is a terrible name for the panicking function, especially since we also have things like .unwrap_or() and .unwrap_or_default() which never panic.

so my position is “it might be extremely bad to society as a whole and completely cook our brains but it’s already here and will only accelerate, so we might as well learn to live with it and harvest the good parts and hope the generations that grew up with it will learn to live with it”

Trump and Musk share a commonality of somehow being both quite clever and extremely dumb which I (and others) have found confusing. I have a model that has been working. I think they’re both clever guys with extremely narrow worldviews.

but capitalism demands it. I can't delete capitalism. am i the problem? doesn't matter - I've tried and failed to change myself, so i either stay miserable, or the world fucking burns, I guess

Sure, feel things around. Find a middle ground. Learn the tips and tricks. Or just rewire myself to stop caring. But I'd honest to god rather give the fuck up than put myself through an experience akin to grinding sandpaper against my eyes

And now, I'm buried into uselessness by the cognitive and social burden of fruitlessly trying to figure out what problems are worth mentioning and what isn't. I'm feeling like I have to come with a corporate slideshow with numbers, charts, statistics, and research papers to justify anything.

I'm close to thinking I just fundamentally can't work on a team. I don't _want_ to think that, but I've hit repeated friction in the past caring about things that others apparently don't, for better or worse

one of my favorite things about discord chat is that the specific flavor and behavior of your mic environment, voice suppression, echo and stuff becomes a part of your personality

Pro tip: In public spaces, be sure to ask "dumb" questions even if you know the answer. It's not for you, it's for everybody else.

📚 As promised, a quick writeup on how syncing state - even if it’s between server and client state - can be avoided if we’d just derive state instead:

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

Windows Notepad, the native simple text editor, now has formatting options and a Copilot button.

@robpalmer.bsky.social makes a good point - `--strict`-by-default isn't the only thing to expect in TypeScript 6.0. We're trying to adopt better defaults and simplify for the future. Check out the current plans on our milestone: github.com/microsoft/Ty...

i always just feel like progressivism is just "how do we make the world better" and (American) conservatism is just "how do we do everything except that"
