Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 12hI appreciate a good chaos feed, but the sheer volume… I am built different, and apparently worse 110
Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 12hNah, I started jumping around looking for updates too. Just happened to loop back to the ACARS feed in time (Also, how on earth do people actually follow ACARS Drama in their main feeds?) 110

Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 30/09/2026Tangentially related, but have you read Incorruptible by Eric Ries? Still a little bit too rah-rah for industry sorting itself out, but nice to see an ostensible insider casting a critical eye. 110
Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 30/09/2026Introducing the VC class to Factorio or Satisfactory is now a matter of national security. I promise guys, it’s plenty cool when you can use your jet pack to watch the fuel rods on the conveyor belts. 000

Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 29/09/2026Was riding on the LFT on Saturday afternoon/evening and a SUV lurched up onto the path to seemingly ircumvent the parking tickets/gates at the entrance. It is unbelievable how heavily pedestrian/cyclist traffic is policed while vehicular traffic is a free-for-all. 190
Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 29/09/2026Ok. Definitely rushed the final act to the ending but already feeling the tug to reload some saves, if not start fresh entirely. Messy (especially skills/conditions) but some fantastic characters and voice performances. Very curious how different the director’s cut stuff will feel like in a few days 000

Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 23/09/2026On a short course of steroids to hopefully kill off the last of a lung infection and I didn’t remember just how insane they make you feel? I cannot stop sweating and crave lacto-fermented foods like I’ve never felt before. I would strike a man down for a Reuben. I would steal kimchi from a baby. 100

Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 22/09/2026I had a ton of success with food journaling/calorie tracking when I was training harder (or training at all, really). But it’s morose to realize that I sort of lost touch with how good cooking feels along the way? 000
Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 22/09/2026Celebrated getting a giant air purifier which seemed to immediately boost my mood by making a distressingly decadent fridge tidbits burger 100
Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 22/09/2026This recipe was pretty solid: www.seriouseats.com/homemade-diy...seriouseats.comHomemade Cheez-Its RecipeBecause they incorporate cream instead of the more common butter, these homemade crackers brown more flavorfully as they bake, creating a deep, nutty, grilled cheese sort of vibe.

Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 22/09/2026I made homemade ones during the pandemic and I don’t recall it being too hard? But strongly recommend avoiding smoked cheeses—I made a huge batch with some hickory cheddar and it was a *struggle* to finish them 120
Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 20/09/2026Had a blast at Chicago MeasureCamp yesterday; fun talks and great chats with friends old and new. (But good heavens I am exhausted and this steady rain heralding fall is not helping in the slightest.) 000

Matt Policastro @mattpolicastro.com · 18/09/2026Well said. The longtermists are very, very bad on this front but it feels like this is also very widespread culturally? E.g.
