I’m building a shot tracking app that I’d love to integrate with this, open LaneTalk style.

Working on a drink pacing app: https://www.trypound.app/

I lost a lot of weight on GLP-1s, and on top of that my tastes changed. Instead of IPAs, I like cocktails now, and the transition made me feel like my own internal clock was out of whack.

Also, also: these hard seltzers are totally crushable, waayyyy too easy to drink fast. So this app helps with that, too.

I bought 32GB x 2 of G.SKILL a year ago and paid $204. Now it's $600. Insane

Foreign held debt is less than 30% of outstanding, and less than that is sovereign-owned, so I don't think devaluing or attempting to restructure foreign debt via "century bonds" will have much effect on US debt obligations.

I seriously doubt this administration understands any of this. I agree that they don't care, but I don't think they know what's going to happen. No one does.

Scarecrow (1973) is a little-known Gene Hackman and Al Pacino movie that's kind of great

Fun to learn that the hotel and phone number inspired the movie Transylvania 6-5000!

Sorry if dumb question, but is LSP similar to what Steve Yegge talked about years ago, I think on a StackOverflow podcast, whereby a language would declare its capabilities to tooling?

The $8 plan is such an obvious unforced error that you have to wonder if Elon has anybody pushing back on him. This entire debacle also draws into relief the difference between a product company like Tesla, or Apple, for that matter, and Twitter. Musk can establish a vision for Tesla or SpaceX, and then it’s all about the execution. With Twitter, there’s the vision, then the execution, then the unintentional side-effects. And the personnel who have the crucial seasoning needed to anticipate the side-effects are mostly gone.

yes! tokenization and problems with word boundaries alone would be great to dive into!
