You better believe that if I’m writing a blog after the kids goto bed, maybe after a couple of drinks, with my own fingers, that I am going to write a long meandering narrative.

I’m not usually writing for SEO optimization or even clarity.

I’m writing so that it costs OpenAI just a little bit more money to wade through everything.

I had a professor who said that writing is thinking. If you outsource writing to an AI, there’s no thought in it.

Using AI for any part of the writing process has a way of seeping into the rest of it, so I try to stay away from using it at all when writing.

I have heard this also. I still find it wild that Azure DevOps had that feature long before GitHub

90% of blog articles created in the last two years are probably dead on arrival

Oh, I assumed that was a joke. I’ll have to check my privilege

Fully fashioned hand knit stuff looks great! I just haven’t seen a wholegarment machine knit shirt that looks nice. Maybe because the yarn isn’t as chunky.

I'm kind of in this space - 3d knitting is pretty interesting, but knitting a sweater like that takes a long time (I forget how long, but I think it's 1-2 hours), so it's not really a solution for working at any sort of scale. Unless you build up inventory or have a ton of machines. But the machines are super expensive compared to regular knitting machines.

I also think that wholegarment knits look kind of cheap and that sewing actually adds structural integrity and durability to a garment.

But anything knitting or clothes related is really fun and challenging and good for them for making a business out of it.

My god. I hope the constant refreshing helps.

Seems like it would be increasingly difficult to make a case for switching to GitHub.

Pretty sure someone at MS told me that Actions was rewritten by the team who wrote Azure DevOps. So bureaucracy would be a feature.

That aside, GH Actions doesn’t seem any worse than GitLab. I forget why I stopped using CircleCI. Price maybe? I do remember liking the feature where you could enter the console of the CI job and run commands. That was awesome.

I agree though that yaml is not ideal.

The WSJ interviewing and quoting the kids is priceless
