Renaming guest writers "urkels" is pretty cute

"You urkel, yet? I've no idea why I waited so long ..."

"Duuuude just urkel and boost your professional/career visibility"

this is extremely cool. would love to see full board

why not just OpenButt?

my lord .... like ... just, why not?

In the spirit of the author's own experienced Ch-ch-changes: I wouldn't even be reading a post like this if it weren't for agentic-coding

Sure I hack a 'Sup World in C every 100 years just to get that feeling you get when you stumble into semi-accomplishment but to consider a low-level lang executable as a product that I produce, maintain and develop expertise/taste with?

Regarding web dev in any low-level lang: once you get that there's a parenthetical "services" between the words "web" and "development", the quest for the languages that offer speed, reliability, etc becomes inevitable

for static sites on a VPS it's fair to expect the host to provision these, yes?

Good post. +1 for Julia Evans mention. Her work and vibes are worth anyone's time

w00t. L-U-V this

the headline isn't exactly bait but it doesn't exactly set reasonable expectations for the content that follows.

the common thread in similar post is that some folks are struggling with _feelings_ and nothing more. valid feelings set off by real and major changes to the very ground they stand on, I guess, but these feelings are ultimately distractions that can paralysis.

The other common thread is these folks are obviously smarter and more accomplished than I am by magnitudes and they're the first ones I'd expect to pull smart (maybe even inspiring) pivots

good post. much appreciated

I read a post sometime in the last 6 months about the hot business in Saskatchewan or Manitoba selling older, completely unconnected John Deere tractors because farmers found the subscription based service for connected ones to be expensive and unhelpful. Basically a net loss. This wired post seems to be payola I mean a direct rebuttal to that post as well as the behavioral wave because it's probably impacting bottom lines

I come to similar conclusions when scanning dev newsletters and I fail to skip over an ad link. Based on the value proposition presented in the one-liner I wonder they exist then wonder whether I really understand "tech industry" as it currently is ...

saw this on lobste.rs Really enjoyed the post and can use it

This is an accomplishment. That it's a couple with two kids elevates it further.

that's certainly what it's looking like so far. kind of mind boggling ...

shows up in /models though and encourages you to use it over 3.7 Flash I prefer this over reading specs: the "just show me" way
