this is actually why i pulled the ejection handle on the ant ecosystem ~when opus 5 dropped. i’ve only recently had the patience to go back and lobotomize all the insane things that got written into markdown files and memories that were getting loaded into every context window

im exaggerating on the internet but my point is that a lot of kids in the last 15 years went into CS not because they had a deep passion for juggling pointers but because it (is/was) seen as safe and lucrative

i’ve had claude recommend restaurants and then after-the-fact asked it to recommend a specific item off the menu and it picks what i actually ordered more often than not, which is INCREDIBLY ANNOYING

for complicated path-dependency reasons i’m friends with a bunch of ex-EU SWEs who all had their eyes fall out of their sockets when they realized what CS degrees could earn in the US. all flying west like settlers of yore

“reposting” is v funny. you can have a whole relationship with someone online that’s effectively just printing out things they said and stapling them to the front of your house while otherwise never speaking to each other

also CS is a *miserable* career to pursue if you aren’t into it, maybe more so than law or medicine

What is the FMS Bridge Visual 28R approach at SFO?
I've read that SFO has a specialized FMS Bridge Visual approach to 28R that is not published but instead is custom tailored for specific operators. What exactly is this approach and how does it work?

today’s hardware pricing is so distorted that anything you aren’t running at 100% utilization until it falls apart is automatically something you’re taking a massive loss on
