so do kids these days not know “you tell the smart girl she’s pretty and the pretty girl she’s smart” has this ancestral knowledge been lost
girls in SF have an unhealthy obsession with being perceived as hot in a way that LA NYC Miami girls do not bother with and it's frankly embarrassing

Spending on things we haven't built yet is exceeding spending on things we already have. Mind blowing stuff.

Second-time Founders is my favourite gender : 1) no deck until someone asks three times 2) first hire is a lawyer 3) distribution for the product before the product exists 4) "we don't need a big round" and means it this time 5) replies to every customer email personally because they know what ignoring customers cost them last time 6) sleeps 8 hours and ships faster than everyone else 7) the only person in the room who isn't impressed by the term sheet Second-time founders are the best breed of founders

If the voters vote red, people who don't vote die.
Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

A whole lot of bullshit in the comments. Why do people say things instead of figuring it out? What happened to engineering? 😭
Слушайте, а вот кто пишет на расте: почему у вас бинарь ripgrep весит 4.5 мегабайта, тогда как простой советский GNU grep - умещается 200 килобайт? Я не троллю, просто интересно. ripgrep с собой весь stdlib что ли носит, их линкер не умеет выделять только нужное?

Chat, is this true? Linen sheets OP?

Slept over at this girl once who had linen sheets and it was the most comfortable sleep I’ve ever had hands down. Zero sweat, superb texture. Well turns out this is like 800$ or so for two sets we’re sticking with ikea.

lmao I can't stop laughing claude-code has a "Frustrated User Detection" There's a regex that detects when you're angry ( fully hard coded btw) When triggered, it changes Claude's behavior/UI state. Claude literally knows when you're cussing at it.
Community note
The frustration detection regex only identifies negative keywords for analytics logging and does not change Claude's behavior or UI state. alex000kim.com/posts/2026-03-… raw.githubusercontent.com/alex000kim/cla…

If all the good programmers opt out, then what will AI be trained on? 🤔
If you use GitHub (especially if you pay for it!!) consider doing this *immediately* Settings -> Privacy -> Disallow GitHub to train their models on your code. GitHub opted *everyone* into training. No matter if you pay for the service (like I do). WTH github.com/settings/copilot/…

I was applying for Australian citizenship and the interviewer asked, "Do you have a criminal record?" I said, "No. Is that still required?"

Terence Tao spent a year at the Institute for Advanced Study - no teaching, no random events of committees, just unlimited time to think. But after a few months, he ran out of ideas. Terence thinks that mathematicians and scientists need a certain level of randomness and inefficiency to come up with new ideas.
