Sometimes home ownership is massively overrated. Many of those days are when the deferred maintenance debt comes due. Somehow it's always like 3 days before vacation.

I blame @dhh for this. It's probably not the year of Linux on the desktop, but maybe 2026? Better not to risk it and check Omarchy out.

I can’t be the only one who gets Princess Bride vibes every time a Chick-Fil-A employee responds “My pleasure!” when I thank them.

The only way this would be more concerning is if it was Cramer telling us everything is going to be fine too.
In our view, the market is discounting the last leg of a rolling recession, which will give the Trump Administration and the Powell Fed many more degrees of freedom than investors expect, setting up the US economy for a deflationary boom in the second half of this year!.

The fact that XML is the new hotness if you don’t want to “boomer prompt” is a delightful bit of cognitive dissonance.
As some of you have noticed, avoid “boomer prompts” with o-series models. Instead, be simple and direct, with specific guidelines. Delimiters (xml tags) will help keep things clean for the model, and improve output. Read the full best practices guide:

My electric plant is humming right along.
Trump on AI: We're going to let the people that are buying the electricity make their own electric plants, electric generation plants… We're calling it a national emergency. And that's exactly what it is.

The American Dream has never been perfectly fair. And yet, the attacks on it over the last 30+ years have done incredible harm to our country and the future of our youth. The disengagement and lack of ambition is heartbreaking. Let's stop making excuses not to try.
