this is exactly the ESPN logo as well

Mastra is a business, this seems to be a helpful lib

OpenRouter and I'm toying around with Hermes. Seems good so far, but haven't really gotten into anything heavy yet. Though the "freedom" of not sweating the token pause and the costs not being too high is real.

the way this displayed in the Reina Sofia is fantastic. it’s set in its own room that you approach from the side so you get this experience of turning a corner and boom there’s Guernica. Gave me chills.

on ios you need to hit the share button and then choose the “add to home screen” option

The problem with opt-out is that if the whole industry doesn't do it, google will show someone's summaries and the traffic still stays with them.

Yep. The first words of the paper are “In mice…”

Pi-holes have an api that lets you hit a url that’ll pause the blocking for a configurable time. I use a Mac shortcut, but even a bookmark would work

Mac shortcuts are exactly the use case for this. Menu bar, ask for a prompt, run script. I was always wary of shortcuts, but they're quite powerful and nicely integrated with the OS in the latest versions

Thanks for reminding me about this! Used to love it but got away from it a while back during a job change

Generically:

- shedding of responsibilities (no longer an expert)

- shedding of preconceptions (new people, new me)

- being new means that people are looking for you to bring your new perspective, which isn't always the case at an existing role

- working with all new people polishes management skills as you can't rely on built up relationships

And then there's the choices you make when interviewing about what kind of company culture/new manager/new team you're going to. Like, if I care a lot about DEI/4-day work week/etc, and my current company doesn't, do I want to work to make that happen (if even possible), or go to a place that also cares about that which allows me to learn and iterate on something that I care about.

I 100% would - Better to find someone who wants to do that job than someone who has organizational knowledge but isn't really compelled by the work (or who would better serve the team in an IC role).

Agree with all the advice that doing it internally will likely be easier (per the "When you're doing something new, don't do something new" maxim).

That said, changing companies can enable rapid evolution. It'll (potentially) make it easier to be the manager you want to be, as opposed to the manager they think you'll be. In many cases it's likely better to do it where you are, but wanted to advocate for the benefits of the alternative, it's not guaranteed to be worse.

My path involved switching to a combo IC & manager at a place where I was an experienced IC, but my skill as a manager didn't really develop until I switched companies.
