GitHub feels like a product that isn't used by the people that work there. That can't POSSIBLY be true, I know. I just hit issues everyday that really make me wonder... how can this bug exist? More likely engineers aren't empowered to fix things and are bogged down by red tape.

Saw a talk this week on the trippiest thing: bacterial cultures on skin induce immune responses. At Michael Fischbach's lab, they demonstrated immunizing mice against tetanus by just dabbing an engineered version of a harmless staph culture on its head. Unlike intramuscular…

almost every single gnu tool that comes pre packaged on the systems I use, I have now replaced with fast, correct software with good defaults. du -> dust ls -> eza tar -> ouch find -> fd grep -> ripgrep cd -> zoxide bash -> nushell

Etymology is such an underrated tool for investigating ideas. The history of the words has so much more to teach than you'd guess.

Building in house and being particular about external dependencies is similar to how good restaurants do sub-recipes — excellent chefs are making their own chicken broth, their own whipped cream, rather than going store bought or ready-made.

it makes me think we have too few examples of work environments that prioritize deep focus, individual agency, async collaboration, no meetings the collective acceptance that all work must be inside a panopticon is depressing news.ycombinator.com/item?id=447755…

it’s really a miracle how humanity accomplished anything at all before we had stakeholder alignment and could properly frame the context

Today would have been my dad’s 74th birthday. This season carries gravity. Father’s Day, his birthday, and the anniversary of his passing all fall within 60 days. For me, grief has no straight path. It revisits, reshapes, and rises when I least expect it. But alongside it…

Eating crow when you’re wrong is an acquired taste, but if you learn to appreciate it you gain access to a whole new world of flavor.

It's 2025 and GitHub/GitLab/etc. code reviews still cannot detect when a block of code has been moved within a file, when displaying the diff. Google's internal tools could do this in ~2010. Why do we accept this?

Can we ban the word “cracked” it’s been cringe for at least 6 months now. Instead of saying your team is cracked just bring the fucking receipts, what have they done.

There are only four places on earth with serious research scenes: the Bay Area, London, Hangzhou, and Tokyo. The great Western and Eastern powers, and the closely related island-bound cultural neighbor who is more sophisticated and less commercial. Weird.

Calling c the "speed of light" completely misses the point. Rather, c is the "spacetime exchange rate": how many units of space you can exchange for one unit of time. In actuality, everything travels at the "speed of light", just not necessarily through space alone... (1/4)

It seems likely that there will be a RUSTSEC advisory for `humantime` being unmaintained. This is a reminder that Jiff should cover all use cases of `humantime`. Specifically, its friendly duration format was specifically designed with this in mind: docs.rs/jiff/latest/ji…

Memory safety disinformation abounds - Profiles make C++ memory safe. They don't. - Memory safety plans involve rewriting all your C++ code. Wrong. - Rust is just as unsafe because of its 'unsafe' keyword. Untrue. - Memory safety is no longer a concern because Trump. False.
